Qualifying Exam Contour Grouping
In this paper, I review the contour grouping approaches towards segmentation of images. Classifying the existing literature into local and global methods, I show how the grouping methods have improved over time, moving from local to global and from heuristic to probabilistic. Requirements for performance evaluation of grouping algorithms are also discussed.
متن کاملSkeleton Pruning by Contour Partitioning
In this paper, we establish a unique correspondence between skeleton branches and subarcs of object contours. Based on this correspondence, a skeleton is pruned by removing skeleton branches whose generating points are on the same contour subarc. This has an effect of removing redundant skeleton branches and retaining all the necessary visual branches. We show that this approach preserves skele...
متن کاملContour Grouping with Prior Models
Conventional approaches to perceptual grouping assume little specific knowledge about the object(s) of interest. However, there are many applications in which such knowledge is available and useful. Here, we address the problem of finding the bounding contour of an object in an image when some prior knowledge about the object is available. We introduce a framework for combining prior probabilis...
متن کاملEcological Statistics of Contour Grouping
The Gestalt laws of perceptual organization were originally conceived as qualitative principles, intrinsic to the brain. In this paper, we develop quantitative models for these laws based upon the statistics of natural images. In particular, we study the laws of proximity, good continuation and similarity as they relate to the perceptual organization of contours. We measure the statistical powe...
متن کاملTrademark retrieval using contour-skeleton stroke classification
In this paper we propose a method to retrieve trademarks using query by sketches. The trademark images are first filtered to remove noise. Then each filtered image is segmented into regions based on pixel connectivity. For each region, a decision is made about whether thinning or edge extraction should be applied. Afterwards stroke tracing is performed to extract the sketch of the trademark. Th...
