A Salient Object Detection Technique Based on Color Divergence

Published:13 May 2021Publication History

ABSTRACT

Nowadays, multimedia and visual computing advances in digital technology make a potential change in human life. Many applications exploit the captured images from autonomous entities as data sources for several goals. In fact, these captured images need to be interpreted in order to extract their external environment. The researchers of this domain will meet some challenges such as how to detect and interpret the images’ context. This paper is to propose an efficient technique that detects objects of a given image based on the color divergence. The results clearly show the accuracy and the computation speed of the proposed technique compared with other methods.
