Segment-based image matting using inpainting to resolve ambiguities
Image Matting and Compositing [6, 25] - the extraction of a foreground element from an image and overlaying it over a different background - are two important operations in digital image manipulation. The extraction of the foreground element and its composition over an existing background is …

A study of meta-learning methods on the problem of video matting
Applying image matting techniques directly to video matting presents challenges, primarily due to the complex temporal dynamics inherent in video data. In this work, we studied two Meta Learning approaches—Boosting with Adapters (BwA) and Boosting using Ensemble (BuE)—to tackle the task of video …

Image and video object selection
… or misplaced detection boxes. (3) Our image matting algorithm is the first to demonstrate the feasibility of learning an alpha matte end-to-end given an image and trimap. It also achieves state-of-the-art results on image matting and video matting benchmarks. (4) Our video object segmentation …

Graphical Methods for Image Compositing and Completion
… a problem that is known as natural image matting. It aims, using some user interactions, to calculate a map that depicts how much a background color(s) contributes to the color of every other pixel in an image. My contributions to matting increase the accuracy of the map calculation as …

Establishing the process-structure-property-performance relationship and viable repair pathways for expeditionary airfield surfacing systems.
… airfield (EAF) surfacing systems, or airfield matting, have enabled the operation of aircraft in austere environments for over eight decades. However, there is a need to evaluate newly proposed and legacy EAF systems to establish compatibility with current and next-generation aircraft. …

Automatic 2D-to-3D conversion of single low depth-of-field images
… and region grouping of the non-OOI regions. The matting of the OOI is also performed in two stages. Initially the in focus foreground or region-of-interest (ROI) is separated from the out of focus background. This is achieved through the correlation of edge, gradient and higher-order statistics …

Laboratory and Numerical Investigation for the Mobility of Ground Vehicles on Soft Clay
… and evaluate the effectiveness of fiberglass matting systems in improving soil performance, respectively. The laboratory investigation of the clay-tire interface by performing direct shear tests is a part of a bigger project aimed at enhancing the mobility of off-road vehicles on wet …

Rapid Soil Stabilization of Soft Clay Soils for Contingency Airfields
… stabilized soil, crushed-aggregate, or aluminum matting. From laboratory studies, the required design strengths for many loading conditions were achieved by treating clay with 2%-4% pelletized quicklime for the underlying subbase layer, and treating clay with 2%-4% pelletized quicklime, 1% RSC15 …

Evaluation of Natural Remediation Following the Occurrence of a Construction-Related Sediment Plume at Camp Shelby Training Site, Mississippi
… sediment control structures (sediment fences and matting), combined with high rainfall, led to erosion within and around the Multi Purpose Range Complex-Heavy (MPRC-H) during its construction. Deposition of sediment effected approximately 20.2 hectares of wetlands that have been monitored since …

Changes in Conformation and Walk Kinematics of Suckling and Weanling Warmblood Foals
… concrete surface covered in 13mm thick rubber matting. Speed was controlled through the use of a uniform handler with a metronome. Trait means at ages 3, 11, 21 wk and post-weaning were compared. Length variables were standardized to percent of total stride length. Temporal variables were …

Layer Extraction and Image Compositing using a Moving-aperture Lens
Image layers are two-dimensional planes, each comprised of objects extracted from a two-dimensional (2D) image of a scene. Multiple image layers together make up a given 2D image, similar to the way a stack of transparent sheets with drawings together make up a scene in an animation. Extracting …

Fast Algorithms For Fragment Based Completion In Images Of Natural Scenes
Textures are used widely in computer graphics to represent fine visual details and produce realistic looking images. Often it is necessary to remove some foreground object from the scene. Removal of the portion creates one or more holes in the texture image. These holes need to be filled to …
