8.6 Summary
Computational visual attention models are widely used in various image and video processing applications today. This chapter presents the applications of visual attention models in visibility threshold modelling, perceptual visual quality assessment, video coding, image retargeting and compressive sensing.
Generally, these image/video processing applications adopt different processing methods for the non-salient and salient regions, which are indicated by visual attention models. Of course, there are many other applications of visual attention models besides those introduced in this chapter and the previous chapter. More applications of visual attention models can be expected to be found in research areas related to computer vision, visual content retrieval, robotics, perceptual image, video processing and so on.
