Multi-Scale Salience Distance Transforms
نویسندگان
چکیده
The distance transform has been proposed for use in computer vision for a number of applications such as matching and skeletonisation. This paper proposes two things: (1) a multi-scale distance transform to overcome the need to choose edge thresholds and scale and (2) the addition of various saliency factors such as edge strength, length and curvature to the basic distance transform to improve its effectiveness. Results are presented for applications of matching and snake fitting.

Attribute salience in graphical representations affects evaluation
By manipulating the scale in graphs, this study demonstrated a new evaluation bias caused by attribute salience in graphical representations. That is, (de)compressing the graph axis scale changed the relative distance with respect to the options of a given attribute and thus changed the salience of the information in graphical representations. Experiment 1 showed that the differences in the gra...
متن کاملNew geodosic distance transforms for gray-scale images
In this paper, two new geodesic distance transforms for gray-scale images are presented. The first transform, the Distance Transform on Curved Space (DTOCS), performs the calculation with integer numbers. The second transform, the Weighted Distance Transform on Curved Space (WDTOCS), gives a weighted distance map with real numbers for an arbitrary gray-value image. Both transforms give a distan...
متن کاملVisible/IR Battle Field Image Registration using Local Hausdorff Distance
Feature inconsistency and low contract and noise in the infrared image background consist of the principle difficulty in the IR/Visible battle field image registration. Feature-based approaches are more powerful and versatile to process poor quality IR images. Multi-scale hierarchical edge detection and edge focusing and salience measure are used in the feature horizon extraction. The common fe...
متن کاملNormal Multi-scale Transforms for Curves
Extending upon [5, 15], we provide the theoretical analysis of normal multi-scale transforms for curves with general linear predictor S, and a more flexible choice of normal directions. The main parameters influencing the asymptotic properties (convergence, decay estimates for detail coefficients, smoothness of normal re-parametrization) of this transform are the smoothness of the curve, the sm...
متن کاملQuantum Haar Wavelet Transforms and Their Applications
Fourier transform has been shown to be a powerful tool in many area of science. However, there is another class of unitary transforms, the wavelet transforms, which are as useful as the Fourier transform. Wavelet transforms are used to expose the multi-scale structure of a signal and very useful for image processing and data compression. In this paper, we construct quantum algorithms for Haar w...
