Pop-Out: A New Cognitive Model of Visual Attention That Uses Light Level Analysis to Better Mimic the Free-Viewing Task of Static Images

[摘要] Human gaze is not directed to the same part of an image when lighting conditions change. Current saliency models do not considerlight level analysis during their bottom-up processes. In this paper, weintroduce a new saliency model which better mimics physiological andpsychological processes of our visual attention in case of free-viewing task(bottom-up process). This model analyzes lighting conditions with theaim of giving different weights to color wavelengths. The resulting saliencymeasure performs better than a lot of popular cognitive approaches.
