چکیده

Automatic recovery of eye gestures from image sequences is one of the important topics for face recognition and model-based coding of videophone sequences. Usually complicated models of the eye and its motion are used. In this contribution an eye gesture parameter estimation is described. A previously published automatic eye detection/tracking algorithm, based on template matching, is used for the eye pose detection. The eye gesture analysis is realised with a mathematical morphology scale-space approach, forming spatio-temporal curves out of scale measurement statistics. The resulting curves provide a direct measure of the eye gesture, which can then be used as an eye animation parameter. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and robustness.

Classification of hyperspectral images by tensor modeling and additive morphological decomposition

Pixel-wise classification in high-dimensional multivariate images is investigated. The proposed method deals with the joint use of spectral and spatial information provided in hyperspectral images. Additive morphological decomposition (AMD) based on morphological operators is proposed. AMD defines a scale-space decomposition for multivariate images without any loss of information. AMD is modele...

Morphological Exudate Detection in Retinal Images using PCA-based Optic Disc Removal

Diabetic retinopathy lesion detection such as exudate in fundus image of retina can lead to early diagnosis of the disease. Retinal image includes dark areas such as main blood vessels and retinal tissue and also bright areas such as optic disk, optical fibers and lesions e.g. exudate. In this paper, a multistage algorithm for the detection of exudate in foreground is proposed. The algorithm se...

Local Appropriate Scale in Morphological Scale-Space

This paper discusses the problem of selecting appropriate scales for region detection prior to feature localization. We argue that an approach in morphological opening-closing scale-space is better than one in Gaussian scale-space. The proposed operator is based on a new shape decomposition method called morphological band-pass lter that decomposes an image into structures of diierent size and ...
