Salient Object Detection via Objectess Measure
Introduction
This demo shows how to use Saliency Objectness [1], as well as Saliency Optimization [2], Saliency Filter [3], Geodesic Saliency [4], and Manifold Ranking [5].

Code for [1] by Sai Srivatsa R
Code for [2,3,4,5] by Wangjiang Zhu

Instructions
To run the demo for default images stored in Data\SRC and to perform evaluation run: >>demo.
The saliency maps are stored in Data\Res .
To obtain saliency maps for custom images using our approach and other methods:
- Add the required files to
Data\SRC. - Add the Objectness Proposals generated by BING [6] to
BingBoxes\. - Now run the demo:
>>demo.
To evaluate our approach and other methods:
- add the ground truth images to
Data\GT. - Now run the demo:
>>demo.
