چکیده

Variations in illumination can have a dramatic effect on the appearance of an object in an image. In this paper we propose how to deal with illumination variations in eigenspace methods. We demonstrate that the eigenimages obtained by a training set under a single illumination condition (ambient light) can be used for recognition of objects taken under different illumination conditions. The major idea is to incorporate a set of gradient based$lter banks into the eigenspace recognition framework. This can be achieved since the eigenimage coeficients are invariant for linearly3ltered images (input and eigenimages). To achieve further illumination insensitivity we devised a robust procedure for coeficient recovery. The proposed approach has been extensively evaluated on a set of 2160 images and the results were compared to other approaches.

Mobile Robot Localization Under Varying Illumination

Methods for mobile robot localization that use eigenspaces of panoramic snapshots of the environment are in general sensitive to changes in the illumination of the environment. Therefore, we propose in this paper an approach which achieves a reliable localization under severe illumination conditions by illumination insensitive eigenspaces. The method in question uses gradient filtering of the e...

Illumination Insensitive Robot Self-Localization Using Panoramic Eigenspaces

We propose to use a robust method for appearance-based matching that has been shown to be insensitive to illumination and occlusion for robot self-localization. The drawback of this method is that it relies on panoramic images taken in one certain orientation, restricts the heading of the robot throughout navigation or needs additional sensors for orientation, e.g. a compass. To avoid these pro...

A Study on Illumination Invariant Face Recognition Methods Based on Multiple Eigenspaces

It is a challenge to recognize faces under variable poses or illumination directions. In the area of multiview face recognition, many experimental results have shown that the performance of approaches based on multiple eigenspaces is higher than the performance of those based on a single eigenspace. This paper presents two multiple illumination eigenspaces-based methods, RDEB and BPNNB, for sol...

Natural scene synthesis using multiple eigenspaces

Although significant research effort has been devoted to the natural scene analysis, there hasn’t been much work on natural scene synthesis. The research of such nature can help understand the hidden structure of natural texture and the illumination patterns for classification and segmentation purposes. The common texture synthesis methods are not suitable for natural scene synthesis due to inh...
