How does InnoColor v1 (Salient Area Detection) work?

Wang, L. (2025). InnoColor: A Pioneering Image Recoloring Framework Driven by Salient Attention Networks. In 2025 IEEE 4rd International Conference on Computing and Machine Intelligence (ICMI).

Version 1 focuses on reengineering image towards the saliency objective. The region-of-interest is segmented from the image using SAM2 and hue-rotated based on a predicted angle. While this usually does mark a clear salient region, it is unnatural and may not contextualize the entire salient region, such as the flower above. Needless to say, it is also inefficient. SAM2 is a huge segmentation model that drastically increases time complexity. V1's architecture is too modularized.
