Cover Story: Superpixel segmentation can benefit from an appropriate edge strength measurement method. In this paper, such a method based on the first-order derivative of anisotropic Gaussian kernels is presented. The kernels can capture the position, direction, prominence, and scale of the edge to be detected. The obtained anisotropic edge strength is incorporated into the distance measurement between neighboring superpixels, and, thus, the performance of an existing graph-based superpixel segmentation method is improved. Experimental results validate the superiority of the proposed method in generating superpixels over the competing methods. It is also illustrated that the proposed superpixel segmentation method can facilitate subsequent saliency detection. View this paper
