Color Textons for Building Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
Textons are known to be powerful operators in capturing textural properties of image regions. This paper proposes a new method to consistently combine structural cues as well as color information in an unified framework of color textons. They are used as features to detect buildings from optical imagery. Despite the simple classification algorithm, presented results are promising and show the usefulness of the proposed feature operator in remote sensing applications.

Color Textons for Texture Recognition
Texton models have proven to be very discriminative for the recognition of grayvalue images taken from rough textures. To further improve the discriminative power of the distinctive texton models of Varma and Zisserman (VZ model) (IJCV, vol. 62(1), pp. 61-81, 2005), we propose two schemes to exploit color information. First, we incorporate color information directly at the texton level, and app...
متن کاملTexture Measures for Segmentation
Texture is an important visual cue in both human and computer vision. Segmenting images into regions of constant texture is used in many applications. This work surveys a wide range of texture descriptors and segmentation methods to determine the state of the art in texture segmentation. Two types of texture descriptors are investigated: filter bank based methods and local descriptors. Filter b...
متن کاملIntroducing An Efficient Set of High Spatial Resolution Images of Urban Areas to Evaluate Building Detection Algorithms
The present work aims to introduce an efficient set of high spatial resolution (HSR) images in order to more fairly evaluate building detection algorithms. The introduced images are chosen from two recent HSR sensors (QuickBird and GeoEye-1) and based on several challenges of urban areas encountered in building detection such as diversity in building density, building dissociation, building sha...
متن کاملFace Recognition with Local Gabor Textons
This paper proposes a novel face representation and recognition method based on local Gabor textons. Textons, defined as a vocabulary of local characteristic features, are a good description of the perceptually distinguishable micro-structures on objects. In this paper, we incorporate the advantages of Gabor feature and textons strategy together to form Gabor textons. And for the specificity of...
متن کاملA Spectral Histogram Model for Textons and Texture Discrimination
Based on a local spatial/frequency representation, the spectral histogram of an image is defined as the marginal distribution of responses from a bank of filters. We propose the spectral histogram as a quantitative definition for textons. The spectral histogram model avoids rectification and spatial pooling, two commonly assumed stages in texture discrimination models. By matching spectral hist...
