Morphological Shape Context: Semi-locality and Robust Matching in Shape Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel shape recognition method based on an algorithm to detect contrasted level lines for extraction, on Shape Context for encoding and on an a contrario approach for matching. The contributions naturally lead to a semi-local Shape Context. Results show that this method is able to work in contexts where Shape Context cannot, such as content-based video retrieval.

Object Recognition Using Locality-Sensitive Hashing of Shape Contexts
At the core of many computer vision algorithms lies the task of finding a correspondence between image features local to a part of an image. Once these features are calculated, matching is commonly performed using a nearest-neighbor algorithm. In this chapter, we focus on the topic of object recognition, and examine how the complexity of a basic feature-matching approach grows with the number o...
متن کاملShape Context: A New Descriptor for Shape Matching and Object Recognition
We develop an approach to object recognition based on matching shapes and using a resulting measure of similarity in a nearest neighbor classifier. The key algorithmic problem here is that of finding pointwise correspondences between an image shape and a stored prototype shape. We introduce a new shape descriptor, the shape context, which makes this possible, using a simple and robust algorithm...
متن کاملColor-Shape Context for Object Recognition
We propose a new image feature that merges color and shape information. This global feature, which we call color shape context, is a histogram that combines the spatial (shape) and color information of the image in one compact representation. This histogram codes the locality of color transitions in an image. Illumination invariant derivatives are first computed and provide the edges of the ima...
متن کاملRobust 2D Shape Correspondence using Geodesic Shape Context
A meaningful correspondence and similarity measure between shapes is particularly useful in applications such as morphing, object recognition, shape registration and retrieval. In this paper, we present a robust shape descriptor for points along a 2D contour, based on the curvature distribution collected over bins arranged geodesically along the contour. Convolution, binning and hysteresis thre...
متن کاملBinary shape recognition using the morphological skeleton transform
-Binary image representation by its morphological skeleton transform has been proposed in the past as an information preserving representation. In this paper this skeleton representation is adopted as the start point for the development of a binary shape recognition scheme. A skeleton matching algorithm is presented that efficiently characterizes the similarity between two skeletons as a distan...
