Affine Invariant Total Variation Models

چکیده
This report relates to the field of image restorations and features extracting from noisy and blurred images. Since their introduction in a classical paper by Rudin, Osher and Fatemi [2], Total Variation (TV) minimising models have become one of the most popular and successful tools for image restorations. Whilst invariance under affine transformations is very important for many image processing tasks, the total variation functional is not invariant under general affine transformation. In the current report we introduce for the first time a new affine invariant regularization functional which has many properties similar to total variation and can be used for affine invariant denoising and restoration tasks. The explicit formula for calculation of this regularization functional is given.

Affine invariant texture signatures
In this paper, we develop a new approach for texture classification independent of affine transforms. Based on spectral representation of texture images under affine transform, anisotropic scale invariant signatures of orientation spectrum distribution are extracted. Peaks distribution vector (PDV) obtained on the distribution of these signatures captures texture properties invariant to affine ...
متن کاملVariation of SIFT Descriptor for Affine Invariant Object Matching
In this paper, a novel affine invariant descriptor for object matching is proposed. The advantage of Maximally Stable Extremal Regions (MSER) method is applied to get the most stable regions in the image. Inside each region, we pick the seeds as keypoints since MSER regions are invariant to affine transformation. Besides that, Voronoi diagram is employed to split the image into small Voronoi ce...
متن کاملAn Improved Harris-Affine Invariant Interest Point Detector
Interest point detection is essential process for many computer vision applications, which must provide invariant points to several image variations, such as, rotation, zoom, blur, illumination variation and change of viewpoints. Harris-Affine detector is considered as one of the most effective interest point detectors, although it still presents vulnerability to some image. This paper proposes...
متن کاملAffine Invariance Contour Descriptor Based on the Equal Area Normalization
In this study, we present a one dimensional descriptor for the two dimensional object silhouettes which in theory remains absolutely invariant under affine transforms. The proposed descriptor operates on the affine enclosed area. We design a normalizing contour method. After this normalization, the number of points on a contour between two appointed positions doesn’t change with affine transfor...
