Scene Categorization Using Low-level Visual Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we have built two binary classifiers for indoor/outdoor and city/landscape categories, respectively. The proposed classifiers consist of robust visual feature extraction that feeds a support vector classification. In the case of indoor/outdoor classification, we combine color and texture information using the first three moments of RGB color space components and the low order statistics of the energy wavelet coefficients from a two-level wavelet pyramid. In the case of city/landscape classification, we combine the first three moments of L*a*b color space components and structural information (line segment orientation). Experimental results show that a high classification accuracy is achieved.

Multimedia classification of movie shots using low-level and semantic features
Movie shots categorization may be approached by using audio and visual features for inferring high-level information about a movie shot. Low-level audio and visual features such as color and MFCC and mid-level features such as sky and speech detection have been used in multimedia understanding research. However, integrating all this features in a classifier remains a subject of study. In this p...
متن کاملHow Does the Brain Represent Visual Scenes? A Neuromagnetic Scene Categorization Study
How are visual scenes represented in the brain during categorization? We acquired magnetoencephalography (MEG) data from nine healthy subjects who participated in a rapid natural scene categorization task. Scenes were presented in two different perspectives (aerial vs. terrestrial) and two different orientations (upright vs. inverted). We applied multivariate pattern classification to categoriz...
متن کاملDiscriminating Semantic Visual Words for Scene Classification
Bag-of-Visual-Words representation has recently become popular for scene classification. However, learning the visual words in an unsupervised manner suffers from the problem when faced these patches with similar appearances corresponding to distinct semantic concepts. This paper proposes a novel supervised learning framework, which aims at taking full advantage of label information to address ...
متن کاملStatistics of natural image categories.
In this paper we study the statistical properties of natural images belonging to different categories and their relevance for scene and object categorization tasks. We discuss how second-order statistics are correlated with image categories, scene scale and objects. We propose how scene categorization could be computed in a feedforward manner in order to provide top-down and contextual informat...
متن کاملRapid visual categorization of natural scene contexts with equalized amplitude spectrum and increasing phase noise.
This study aimed to determine the extent to which rapid visual context categorization relies on global scene statistics, such as diagnostic amplitude spectrum information. We measured performance in a Natural vs. Man-made context categorization task using a set of achromatic photographs of natural scenes equalized in average luminance, global contrast, and spectral energy. Results suggest that ...
