Hello,
The algorithm suggests quite something for e-maps in particular. As it
is it is cool. Check all the links.
SIOX Algorithm released as Java API

fractor writes "The SIOX algorithm (Simple Interactive Object
Extraction) that has recently been integrated into the GIMP (see former
article) is now also available as Java API. The SIOX Team released a
documented and non-optimized Java source of the foreground extraction
algorithm. Many people had complained that the source code integrated
into the GIMP was too optimized for GIMP and thus hard to read. It is
the policy of the SIOX team not only to provide source code but also to
foster understanding of it. The Java source code also contains features
that are yet to come into the next development releases of GIMP. The
most important one is the Detail Refinement Brush that can be used to
get rid of spill colors in highly detailed textures, like hair or tree
branches. The package comes with a simple program that demonstrates the
usage of the API. Developers and researchers are invited to take a look
at the API at http://www.siox.org. Non-developers that want to try SIOX
are recommended to use the latest unstable version of GIMP."
