WWW Link. The analysis seems to be mostly negative -- the problems with the Saliency network. Extracts the most salient curve, but cases where the most salient feature is not on that curve. One large gap is better than many small gaps that add up to the same, and problems with finding any curves other than the most salient one. BibRef
