| Abstract | In this paper, we investigate how an unlabeled image corpus can facilitate the segmentation of any given image. A simple yet efficient multi-task joint sparse representation model is presented to augment the patch-pair similarities by harnessing the newly discovered patch-pair density priors. First, each image in over-segmented as a set of patches, and the adjacent patch-pair density priors, statistically calculated from the unlabeled image corpus, bring an intuitively explainable and informative observation that kindred patch-pairs generally have higher densities that inhomogeneous patch-pairs. Then for each adjacent patch-pair within the given image, high-density biased multi-task joint sparse reconstruction is pursued such that 1) both individual patches and patch-pair can be reconstructed with few patch-pairs from the unlabeled image corpus, and 2) the patch-pairs selected for reconstruction are high-density biased, namely, preferring patch-pairs belonging to the same semantic region. In this way, the overall reconstruction residue well conveys the discriminative information on whether these two patches belong to the same semantic region, and consequently the patch affinity matrix is augmented by reconstruction residues for all adjacent patch-pairs within the given image. The ultimate image segmentation is derived by employing the popular normalized cut approach over the augmented patch affinity matrix. Extensive image segmentation experiments over two public databases clearly demonstrate the superiority of the proposed solution over several state-of-the-art algorithms. Furthermore, the algorithmic practicality is well validated with comparison experiments on content-based image retrieval and multi-label image annotation performed over image segmentation outputs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
