Abstract :
Image matting refers to the problem of accurately extracting foreground objects in images and video. The most recent works in natural image matting relies on the local and manifold smoothness assumptions on foreground and background colors on which a cost function is established. In this paper, we present a framework of formulating new regularization for robust solutions and illustrate new algorithms using the standard benchmark images.
