Exploring Spatial Correlation for Light Field Saliency Detection: Expansion From a Single View
2022
Previous 2D saliency detection methods extract salient cues from a single view and directly predict the expected results. Both traditional and deep-learning-based 2D methods do not consider geometric information of 3D scenes. Therefore the relationship between scene understanding and salient objects cannot be effectively established. This limits the performance of 2D saliency detection in challenging scenes. In this paper, we show for the first time that saliency detection problem can be reformulated as two sub-problems: light field synthesis from a single view and light-field-driven saliency detection. This paper first introduces a high-quality light field synthesis network to produce reliable 4D light field information. Then a novel light-field-driven saliency detection network is proposed, in which a Direction-specific Screening Unit (DSU) is tailored to exploit the spatial correlation among multiple viewpoints. The whole pipeline can be trained in an end-to-end fashion. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art 2D, 3D and 4D saliency detection methods.
