چکیده
In this paper we propose a new junctions ridges and valleys detection method in images based on the difference of rotating Gaussian semi filters. The novelty of this approach resides in the mixing of ideas coming both from directional filters and DoG method. We obtain a new ridges/valleys junctions anisotropic DoG detector enabling very precise detection of ridge/valley junctions. Moreover, this detector performs correctly even if crest lines are highly bended or noised. This detector has been tested successfully on synthetic and real images establishing performing results.

متن کاملMorphological approach to extract ridge and valley connectivity networks from Digital Elevation Models
The extraction of ridge and valley connectivity networks is essential for studying spatio-temporal organizations. Extraction of such connectivity networks from multiscale DEMs has lately received notable attention. A simple method is proposed to extract these networks, from a sample DEM as well as a simulated fractal DEM, using non-linear morphological transformations in a methodical way. Furth...
متن کاملLogical Templates for Feature Extraction in Fingerprint Images
We present a novel approach for extraction of minutiae features from fingerprint images. The proposed approach is based on the use of logical templates for minutiae extraction in the presence of data distortion. A logical template is an expression that is applied to the binary ridge (valley) image at selected potential locations to detect the presence of minutia at these locations. It is adapte...
متن کاملAutomatic Extraction of Ridge and Valley Axes Using the Profile Recognition and Polygon-breaking Algorithm
ÐFor most interpreters working on two-dimensional data or maps, a line-drawing process to depict linear and curvilinear features is often needed. One of the main diculties in simulating human insight in such a process by computer is that the human eye is able to consider data trends within a wide range on the map. A program based on the pro®le recognition and polygon-breaking algorithms is int...
متن کاملImplementing the automatic extraction of ridge and valley axes using the PPA algorithm in Grass GIS
The profile recognition and polygon breaking (PPA) algorithm allows to extract the ridge and valley axes automatically over wide areas maps. The algorithm simulates the human thinking in the line drawing process. First a process of profile recognition takes all the points close to the possible axes and connects them as a belt of closed polygons. The polygons are then broken into a continuous li...
