      Aytekin, Caglar; Ozan, Ezgi Can; Kiranyaz, Serkan; Gabbouj , Moncef ( Springer New York LLC , 2017 , Article)
      In this manuscript, an unsupervised salient object extraction algorithm is proposed for RGB and RGB-Depth images. Saliency estimation is formulated as a foreground detection problem. To this end, Quantum-Cuts (QCUT), a ...
    • Salient object segmentation based on linearly combined affinity graphs 

      Aytekin, Caglar; Iosifidis, Alexandros; Kiranyaz, Serkan; Gabbouj, Moncef ( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      In this paper, we propose a graph affinity learning method for a recently proposed graph-based salient object detection method, namely Extended Quantum Cuts (EQCut). We exploit the fact that the output of EQCut is ...
