Meng Lü · Advanced materials research · 2013

This paper presents a novel saliency detection method for color image based on watershed method and regional spatial attention model. Watershed method is improved to divide the original image into several sub-regions. And regional spatial attention model is specifically designed in the terms of visual attention mechanism from human's psychology and physiology. Experiment results show that our method can accurately and quickly detect the salient regions from color images, and compared with traditional ones, our method performs better.
