    This study introduces a unified approach for constrained image segmentation, including interactive segmentation and co-segmentation. The method uses dominant sets and a regularization parameter to effectively handle various constraints and noisy user input.

    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • Graph Theory
    • Optimization

    Background:

    • Image segmentation remains a challenging problem in computer vision.
    • Existing methods often require user assistance (interactive segmentation) or simultaneous segmentation of multiple images (co-segmentation).
    • These variants can be viewed as constrained versions of image segmentation, guided by external information.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a unified approach for constrained image segmentation problems.
    • To leverage properties of dominant sets and quadratic optimization for segmentation.
    • To develop a method capable of handling interactive segmentation and co-segmentation.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized properties of quadratic optimization problems related to dominant sets.

  • Main Results:

    • Demonstrated the ability to extract constrained dominant-set clusters.
    • Showcased the algorithm's effectiveness in handling interactive segmentation and co-segmentation (unsupervised and interactive).
    • Validated the approach's robustness with various constraints (scribbles, contours, bounding boxes) and noisy user annotations.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed method offers a unified framework for diverse constrained image segmentation tasks.
    • The algorithm effectively handles multiple constraint types and input modalities.
    • Experimental results confirm the approach's superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets.
