摘要:
A method for point-of-interest attraction towards an object pixel in a digital image by first performing object segmentation resulting in a contour-based or a region-based representation of object pixels and background pixels of the image. Secondly a vector distance transform image is computed comprising a vector displacement of each background pixel towards the nearest of said object pixels and the nearest object pixel for a given background pixel is determined by adding the vector displacement to said background pixel. Finally the point-of-interest is attracted towards the determined nearest object pixel.
