The High Repeatability of Salient Regions
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we show that salient regions, detected by a biologically motivated attention system, have a considerably higher repeatability than features detected by standard detectors (Harris-Laplacians and DoG features). If a scene contains a salient region, which differs in one of several possible features from the rest of the scene, the repeatability is close to 100%. In settings in which no especially salient region is present, the repeatability of attention regions is similar to DoG features and considerably higher than Harris-Laplacians.

Salient regions detection in satellite images using the combination of MSER local features detector and saliency models
Nowadays, due to quality development of satellite images, automatic target detection on these images has been attracted many researchers' attention. Remote-sensing images follow various geospatial targets; these targets are generally man-made and have a distinctive structure from their surrounding areas. Different methods have been developed for automatic target detection. In most of these met...
متن کاملInvariant salient regions based image retrieval under viewpoint and illumination variations
In this paper, we present a novel image retrieval technique based on salient regions that are invariant under viewpoint and illumination variations. The salient regions are detected according to local entropy and scale selection. The detected regions have very high repeatability under various viewpoint and illumination changes. We apply the invariant region detector on content-based image retri...
متن کاملDetection of Complex Salient Regions
The goal of interest point detectors is to find, in an unsupervised way, keypoints easy to extract and at the same time robust to image transformations. We present a novel set of saliency features based on image singularities that takes into account the region content in terms of intensity and local structure. The region complexity is estimated by means of the entropy of the gray-level informat...

The challenge of interest point detectors is to find, in an unsupervised way, keypoints easy to extract and at the same time robust to image transformations. In this paper, we present a novel set of saliency features that takes into account the region inhomogeneity in terms of intensity and shape. The region complexity is estimated at real-time by means of the entropy of the grey-level informat...
متن کاملStructure Guided Salient Region Detector
This paper presents a novel method for detection of image interest regions called Structure Guided Salient Regions (SGSR). Following the information theoretic route to saliency detection, we extend Kadir et al.’s Salient Region detector by exploiting image structure information. The detected SGSRs are highly distinct and very selective. For planar scenes, their performance on repeatability test...
