Image Analysis by Discrete Orthogonal Hahn Moments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Orthogonal moments are recognized as useful tools for object representation and image analysis. It has been shown that the recently developed discrete orthogonal moments have better performance than the conventional continuous orthogonal moments. In this paper, a new set of discrete orthogonal polynomials, namely Hahn polynomials, are introduced. The related Hahn moment functions defined on this orthogonal basis set are investigated and applied to image reconstruction. In experiments, the Hahn moments are compared with the other two discrete orthogonal moments: Chebyshev and Krawtchouk moments. The simulation results show that the Hahn moment-based reconstruction method is superior to the other two discrete orthogonal moment-based methods.

Image analysis by discrete orthogonal dual Hahn moments
In this paper, we introduce a set of discrete orthogonal functions known as dual Hahn polynomials. The Tchebichef and Krawtchouk polynomials are special cases of dual Hahn polynomials. The dual Hahn polynomials are scaled to ensure the numerical stability, thus creating a set of weighted orthonormal dual Hahn polynomials. They are allowed to define a new type of discrete orthogonal moments. The...
متن کاملImage representation using separable two-dimensional continuous and discrete orthogonal moments
This paper addresses bivariate orthogonal polynomials, which are a tensor product of two different orthogonal polynomials in one variable. These bivariate orthogonal polynomials are used to define several new types of continuous and discrete orthogonal moments. Some elementary properties of the proposed continuous Chebyshev–Gegenbauer moments (CGM), Gegenbauer–Legendre moments (GLM), and Chebys...

This paper presents a new set of bivariate discrete orthogonal moments which are based on bivariate Hahn polynomials with non-separable basis. The polynomials are scaled to ensure numerical stability. Their computational aspects are discussed in detail. The principle of parameter selection is established by analyzing several plots of polynomials with different kinds of parameters. Appropriate p...
متن کاملFace Recognition Using Discrete Orthogonal Hahn Moments
One of the most critical decision points in the design of a face recognition system is the choice of an appropriate face representation. Effective feature descriptors are expected to convey sufficient, invariant and non-redundant facial information. In this work we propose a set of Hahn moments as a new approach for feature description. Hahn moments have been widely used in image analysis due t...
متن کاملDigital Filter Implementation of Orthogonal Moments
The importance of geometric moment (GM) invariants first received research attention when Hu [1] introduced them in his study. As they capture global features have been widely used in applications such as object classification, image and shape analysis and edge detection [2-8]. However, since GMs are non-orthogonal, a set of continuous orthogonal moments including Zernike and Legendre moments w...
