Salient object detection: A survey

A Borji, MM Cheng, Q Hou, H Jiang, J Li - Computational visual media, 2019 - Springer
Detecting and segmenting salient objects from natural scenes, often referred to as salient
object detection, has attracted great interest in computer vision. While many models have …

Grayscale image colorization methods: Overview and evaluation

I Žeger, S Grgic, J Vuković, G Šišul - IEEE access, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Colorization is a process of converting grayscale images into visually acceptable color
images. The main goal is to convince the viewer of the authenticity of the result. Grayscale …

Taskonomy: Disentangling task transfer learning

AR Zamir, A Sax, W Shen, LJ Guibas… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - openaccess.thecvf.com
Do visual tasks have a relationship, or are they unrelated? For instance, could having
surface normals simplify estimating the depth of an image? Intuition answers these …

Reference-based sketch image colorization using augmented-self reference and dense semantic correspondence

J Lee, E Kim, Y Lee, D Kim… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - openaccess.thecvf.com
This paper tackles the automatic colorization task of a sketch image given an already-
colored reference image. Colorizing a sketch image is in high demand in comics, animation …

Tracking emerges by colorizing videos

C Vondrick, A Shrivastava, A Fathi… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - openaccess.thecvf.com
We use large amounts of unlabeled video to learn models for visual tracking without manual
human supervision. We leverage the natural temporal coherency of color to create a model …

Real-time user-guided image colorization with learned deep priors

R Zhang, JY Zhu, P Isola, X Geng, AS Lin, T Yu… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2017 - arxiv.org
We propose a deep learning approach for user-guided image colorization. The system
directly maps a grayscale image, along with sparse, local user" hints" to an output …

Colorful image colorization

R Zhang, P Isola, AA Efros - Computer Vision–ECCV 2016: 14th European …, 2016 - Springer
Given a grayscale photograph as input, this paper attacks the problem of hallucinating a
plausible color version of the photograph. This problem is clearly underconstrained, so …

Let there be color! joint end-to-end learning of global and local image priors for automatic image colorization with simultaneous classification

S Iizuka, E Simo-Serra, H Ishikawa - ACM Transactions on Graphics …, 2016 - dl.acm.org
We present a novel technique to automatically colorize grayscale images that combines
both global priors and local image features. Based on Convolutional Neural Networks, our …

Deep exemplar-based colorization

M He, D Chen, J Liao, PV Sander, L Yuan - ACM Transactions on …, 2018 - dl.acm.org
We propose the first deep learning approach for exemplar-based local colorization. Given a
reference color image, our convolutional neural network directly maps a grayscale image to …

Ddcolor: Towards photo-realistic image colorization via dual decoders

X Kang, T Yang, W Ouyang, P Ren… - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - openaccess.thecvf.com
Image colorization is a challenging problem due to multi-modal uncertainty and high ill-
posedness. Directly training a deep neural network usually leads to incorrect semantic …
