Abstract
- Every picture tells a story. In photography, the story is portrayed by a composition of objects, commonly referred to as the subjects of the piece. Were we to remove these objects, the story would be lost. When manipulating images, either for artistic rendering or cropping, it is crucial that the story of the piece remains intact. As a result, the knowledge of the location of these prominent objects is essential. We propose an approach for saliency detection that combines previously suggested patch distinctness with an object probability map. The object probability map infers the most probable locations of the subjects of the photograph according to highly distinct salient cues. The benefits of the proposed approach are demonstrated through state-of-the-art results on common data sets. We further show the benefit of our method in various manipulations of real-world photographs while preserving their meaning. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
