The code and results of the Label Propagation Saliency (LPS) work published in IEEE Transactions on Image Processing (TIP), 2015.
There are two versions of the paper, one is the camera-ready paper published in IEEE (link here); another is the author-preferred full version covering a complete experiment report in different datasets (available in arXiv).
We test our code on Windows 8.1, Ubuntu 14.04 and OSX 10.10 with Matlab 2014b.
Just put your images in the directory and run >> demo.m in Matlab! Results will be generated in the same directory.
Saliency maps of the proposed algorithm on five datasets. [LPS_maps]
We provide some (time-consuming-to-generate or dependencies-heavily-relied) results of other saliency detectors. We use the original software/code provided in the authors' website (but they does not include maps in the datasets that we experiment on). Do NOT email me inquiring on the availability of other models' results.
Currently, the following models are provided (maybe updated once in a while).

I will list the most frequently asked questions here for future convenience (if there's any, stay tuned!).
Please feel free to contact me and disuss the details (although I do not focus on saliency detection now, but I have some occasional paper reviewing job). Please add LPS_TIP at the beginning of the email subject so that I know you have read this document. Otherwise, I will not reply at all for the obvious reason. Also, do me a favor and do not ask silly questions like how to use the code or help you download the results.
