bayesian-matting

Python implementation of Yung-Yu Chuang, Brian Curless, David H. Salesin, and Richard Szeliski. A Bayesian Approach to Digital Matting. In Proceedings of IEEE Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR 2001), Vol. II, 264-271, December 2001

Requirements

• python 3.5+ (Though it should run on 2.7 with some minor tweaks)
• scipy
• numpy
• numba > 0.30.1 (Not neccesary, but does give a 5x speedup)
• matplotlib
• opencv

Running the demo

• 'python bayesian_matting.py'
• sigma (σ) fall off of gaussian weighting to local window
• N size of window to construct local fg/bg clusters from
• minN minimum number of known pixels in local window to proceed
