Abstract
Recently many graph-based salient region/object detection methods have been developed. They are rather effective for still images. However, little attention has been paid to salient region detection in videos. This paper addresses salient region detection in videos. A unified approach towards graph construction for salient object detection in videos is proposed. The proposed method combines static appearance and motion cues to construct graph, enabling a direct extension of original graph-based salient region detection to video processing. To maintain coherence in both intra- and inter-frames, a spatial-temporal smoothing operation is proposed on a structured graph derived from consecutive frames. The effectiveness of the proposed method is tested and validated using seven videos from two video datasets.Keywords
