Co-saliency Detection



Co-saliency detection is used to discover the common saliency on the multiple images. This page provides a paper list of the co-saliency detection. If you have paper to recommend or any suggestions, please feel free to contact me.

This page will not be maintenance any more. A very nice co-saliency dataset and benchmark could be found in "Taking a Deeper Look at the Co-salient Object Detection" [Project].
