Region segregation and saliency using colour information

Saliency maps determine the likelihood that we focus on interesting areas of scenes or images. These maps can be built using several low-level image features, one of which having a particular relevance: colour. In this paper we present a new computational model, based only on colour features, which provides a sound basis for saliency maps for static images and video, plus region segregation and cues for local gist vision.
