چکیده

We introduce two fourth-order regularization methods that remove geometric noise without destroying significant geometric features. These methods leverage ideas from image denoising and simplification of high contrast images in which piecewise affine functions are preserved up to infinitesimally small transition zones. We combine the regularization techniques with active contour models and apply them to segmentation of polygonal objects in aerial images. To avoid loss of features during the computation of the external driving forces we use total-variation based inverse scale-space techniques on the input data. Furthermore, we use the models for feature-preserving removal of geometric texture on surfaces.

Order-Preserving Sparse Coding for Sequence Classification

Abstract. In this paper, we investigate order-preserving sparse coding for classifying multi-dimensional sequence data. Such a problem is often tackled by first decomposing the input sequence into individual frames and extracting features, then performing sparse coding or other processing for each frame based feature vector independently, and finally aggregating individual responses to classify...

Regularization of Orthonormal Vector Sets using Coupled PDE’s

We address the problem of restoring, while preserving possible discontinuities, fields of noisy orthonormal vector sets, taking the orthonormal constraints explicitly into account. We develop a variational solution for the general case where each image feature may correspond to multiple n-D orthogonal vectors of unit norms. We first formulate the problem in a new variational framework, where di...

Parallel Feature-Preserving Mesh Smoothing

We present a parallel approach for optimizing surface meshes by redistributing vertices on a feature-aware higher-order reconstruction of a triangulated surface. Our method is based on a novel extension of the fundamental quadric, called the medial quadric. This quadric helps solve some basic geometric problems, including detection of ridges and corners, computation of one-sided normals along r...

Anisotropic Diffusion PDE’s for Multi-Channel Image Regularization : Framework and Applications

We review recent methods based on diffusion PDE’s (Partial Differential Equations) for the purpose of multi-channel image regularization. Such methods have the ability to smooth multi-channel images anisotropically and can preserve then image contours while removing noise or other undesired local artifacts. We point out the pros and cons of the existing equations, providing at each time a local...

Geometric multigrid for high-order regularizations of early vision problems

The surface estimation problem is used as a model to demonstrate a framework for solving early vision problems by high-order regularization with natural boundary conditions. Because the application of algebraic multigrid is usually constrained by an M -matrix condition which does not hold for discretizations of high-order problems, a geometric multigrid framework is developed for the efficient ...
