In this paper, we propose a region based saliency detection algorithm using a total variation based regularizer. We aim to obtain salient objects that are uniformly highlighted. the use of the regularizer facilitates the removal of textures from the image. this leads to an imagethat contains piecewise constant gray-valued segments. this texture-free image is sparsely segmented into a small number of regions using the expectation maximization algorithm assuming a Gaussian mixture model. We compute saliency of regions using their intensity and spatial features. the saliency map is then thresholded to obtain the salient regions of the image. Next we employ an image matting technique to extract the exact boundaries of the salient objects from the image. this approach leads to noise-free saliency maps containing uniformly highlighted salient regions. the experimental comparison with existing saliency detection algorithms demon-strates the superiority of the proposed technique.

Camouaging an object in a photograph is normally performed withthe intent of unnoticeably hiding it within a given image. In this work, we give a different dimension to this problem and raise the interesting issue of camouaging motion blur with special relevance to non-uniformly blurred images. Given a blurred photograph, we apply a suitably derived blurring model to smear a target object and naturally blend it into the motion blurred background by using alpha matting. We validate our photo-realistic compositing approach on several synthetic and real examples. Copyright 2014 ACM.

Detection of text embedded in images and videos is very useful in applications like indexing and retrieval of multimedia content. there exist very few techniques which can differentiate between overlay text which is embedded artificially and scene text which occurs naturally in images. this paper proposes an efficient method for detection and localization of overlay text from still images. By using colour filter array(CFA)-based forgery localization method, the proposed technique successfully removes any scene text present in the image. Experimental results on a database of 315images demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method. Copyright 2014 ACM.

In Federated learning (FL), FederatedAveraging(FedAvg) is widely used to compute the weighted mean of local models in the parametric space over time on a central server by exchanging intermediate updates over multiple rounds of communication. However, this approach requires many communication rounds for the central model to learn data generalization. Each local model updates the central model parameters in different directions of the multi-dimensional parameter space. To address this challenge, we propose FedGMMinit: Federated Initialization with Gaussian Mixture Model, which adjusts initial central model gradients by pre-training the model on synthetic data generated from a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). For each label in the client's dataset, a GMM is built. the pre-trained weights are then communicated to the selected clients to initialize FedAvg. To maintain data privacy, only the client's representation of the Gaussian is passed to the server. Our proposed approach is tested on MNIST digit datasets for image classification. It shows a reduction of 10-15 communication rounds required by the central model to achieve target accuracy for both IID and non-IID distributions. In the scope of the study, we also discovered that clustering clients and training them with global models also contributed to the overall improvement of convergence. We call this clustering method as FedGMMCluster.

this paper proposes a real-time solution to setting up a virtual trial-room for on-line portals selling apparels using a generic web camera interface to the portal. the user selects an image of an apparel from the on-line display and captures his/her own videos. the proposed method detects the pose of the user as well as various anthropomorphic features such as length and thickness of upper limbs and the dimensions of the torso. We use a background subtraction based methodology to segment out the human body from the image. the segmented human body contour is represented by a 1D curve by computing the distance of a point on the contour from the body centroid. Various extremities of body parts are found out by measuring the curvature. Using the detected feature points, we use a cloth fitting algorithm to fit the garment to the users body. the entire process is performed at 30fps, providing a realistic rendering of virtual clothing for any user.
