Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This paper presents a method to produce an importance map, that predicts the perceptual importance for each segmented region in an image, using various gaze factors which influence human visual attention after segmenting the color images by region growing and merging algorithms. We also evaluate the importance map using evaluation data by experimental subjects. We propose to improve the method to produce the importance map recursively after re-segmenting the highly important regions though the conventional methods yield the importance map after a single segmentation. The proposed method overcomes the defect of the conventional methods that ignore the small-sized but perceptually important regions.
