VDT-2048 Dataset Analysis
This dataset contains 2048 image groups, and each group contains triple-modal images (i.e., visible image, depth image, and thermal image). All of the images have the same resolution of 640×480. This dataset collected 34 household items in the seven most common household scenes. The proportion of each scene and item category is shown in the following figure.
V challenging scenes
V information mainly has seven challenging scenes. V-SA (similar appearance): the salient object has a similar color or shape to the background. V-BSO (big salient object): the ratio of the sum of salient pixels to the total pixel sum of the entire image is greater than 0.08. V-SSO (small salient object): the ratio of the sum of salient pixels to the total pixel sum of the entire image is less than 0.007. V-MSO (multiple salient objects): the number of salient objects is more than one. V-LI (low illumination): images are collected under low illumination, and objects are not easier to identify visually. V-SI (side illumination): illumination is given from the side of salient objects, and the brightness of salient objects is uneven. V-NI (no illumination): the image is collected under no illumination, and objects are visually difficult to identify.
D challenging scenes
D information mainly has four challenging scenes. D-BM (background messy): background messy when there is no wallpaper. D-II (information incomplete): partial lack of D information leads to incomplete information of salient objects. D-SSO (small salient objects): the ratio of the sum of salient pixels to the total pixel sum of the entire image is less than 0.007. D-BI (background interference): using wallpaper as a background to interfere with D information.
T challenging scenes
T information mainly has three challenging scenes. T-Cr (crossover): the salient object has a similar temperature to the surrounding or other objects. T-RD (radiation dispersion): part of a salient object is more salient than the whole object. T-HR (heat reflection): the heat radiation of the salient object is reflected.
Proposed HWSI method
The overall architecture of the proposed HWSI method and two main modules are shown in the following figure.
Visual comparison results
Comparison of the salient map visualization results of the proposed model and the latest methods in dealing with different challenging scenes.
Visual comparison results of two modalities are disturbed.
