RGB-D Salient Object Detection

RGB-D Salient object detection (SOD) aims at distinguishing the most visually distinctive objects or regions in a scene from the given RGB and Depth data. It has a wide range of applications, including video/image segmentation, object recognition, visual tracking, foreground maps evaluation, image retrieval, content-aware image editing, information discovery, photosynthesis, and weakly supervised semantic segmentation. Here, depth information plays an important complementary role in finding salient objects. Online benchmark: http://dpfan.net/d3netbenchmark.
