Abstract:

Most existing visual saliency analysis algorithms assume that the input image is clean and does not have any disturbances. However, this situation is not always the case. In this paper, we provide an extensive evaluation of visual saliency analysis algorithms in noisy images. We analyze the noise immunity of saliency analysis algorithms by evaluating the performances of the algorithms in noisy images with increasing noise scales and by studying the effects of applying different denoising methods before performing saliency analysis. We use 10 state-of-the-art saliency analysis algorithms and 7 typical image denoising methods on 4 eye fixation datasets and 2 salient object detection datasets. Our experiments show that the performances of saliency analysis algorithms decrease with increasing image noise scales in general. An exception is that the nonlinear features (NF) integrated algorithm shows good noise immunity. We also find that image denoising methods can greatly improve the noise immunity of the algorithms. Our results show that the combination of NF and Median denoising method works best on eye fixation datasets and the combination of saliency optimization (SO) and color block-matching and 3D filtering (C-BM3D) method works best on salient object detection datasets. The combination of SO and Average denoising method works best for applications wherein time efficiency is a major concern for both types of datasets.
