Integration of Regions and Contours for Object Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an integrated approach combining region and contour–based techniques to enhance both segmentation and recognition processes. This cue integration operates on the level of contour–based groups and complete regions, which are matched to reflect a common cause in the image (and thus in the scene). Additionally, we realize a top–down scheme controlling the segmentation process on the basis of unresolvable image areas and the integration of processes on different time scales using a region memory. Results for real images are given showing distinct improvements of recognition results.

Contours Extraction Using Line Detection and Zernike Moment
Most of the contour detection methods suffers from some drawbacks such as noise, occlusion of objects, shifting, scaling and rotation of objects in image which they suppress the recognition accuracy. To solve the problem, this paper utilizes Zernike Moment (ZM) and Pseudo Zernike Moment (PZM) to extract object contour features in all situations such as rotation, scaling and shifting of object i...
متن کاملObject recognition contributions to figure-ground organization: operations on outlines and subjective contours.
In previous research, replicated here, we found that some object recognition processes influence figure-ground organization. We have proposed that these object recognition processes operate on edges (or contours) detected early in visual processing, rather than on regions. Consistent with this proposal, influences from object recognition on figure-ground organization were previously observed in...

In this paper a system is described, which selects the regions containing the most interesting features of an image. This function has an important role in biological systems, and corresponds to the bottom{up information ow in the visual attention subsystem. It allows the selection of important information for more complex processing stages, such as object recognition. In the proposed system, t...

متن کاملApplication of Combined Local Object Based Features and Cluster Fusion for the Behaviors Recognition and Detection of Abnormal Behaviors
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for behaviors recognition and detection of certain types of abnormal behaviors, capable of achieving high detection rates on a variety of real-life scenes. The new proposed approach here is a combination of the location based methods and the object based ones. First, a novel approach is formulated to use optical flow and binary motion video as the loc...
