A geodesic framework for image and video editing

Abstract: In this talk I will describe a framework for image and video editing
based on computing distance functions and geodesics to user provided
scribbles. The distance functions are computed in linear time based
on new computational techniques we have developed.
I will include examples in segmentation, matting, colorization, and
other special effects. We will also demo in real time some of these
examples.

The work is based on joint collaborations with an international
team of past/present students in my lab: A. Bartesaghi (Uruguay),
X. Bai (China), A. Protiere (France), and L. Yatziv (Israel).
