Abstract
We propose a method for weakly supervised segmentation
of natural images, which may contain both textured or non-textured
regions. Our texture representation is based on a dictionary of image
patches. To divide an image into separated regions with similar texture
we use an implicit level sets representation of the curve, which makes
our method topologically adaptive. In addition, we suggest a multi-label
version of the method. Finally, we improve upon a similar texture representation,
by formulating the computation of a texture probability in
terms of a matrix multiplication. This results in an efficient implementation
of our segmentation method. We experimentally validated our
approach on a number of natural as well as composed images.
