Improving Keypoint Orientation Assignment
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Detection and description of local image features has proven to be a powerful paradigm for a variety of applications in computer vision. Often, this process includes an orientation assignment step to render the overall process invariant to in-plane rotation. In this paper, we review several different existing algorithms and propose two novel, efficient methods for orientation assignment. The first method exhibits a very good speedperformance trade-off; the second is capable of multiple orientations and performs comparable to SIFT’s orientation assignment while being significantly cheaper. Additionally, we improve one of the existing orientation assignment methods by generalizing it. All algorithms are evaluated empirically under a variety of conditions and in combination with six keypoint detectors.

متن کاملRadial Fourier Analysis (RFA) Descriptor with Fourier-based Keypoint Orientation
Local keypoint detection and description have been widely employed in a large number of computer vision applications, such as image registration, object recognition and robot localisation. Since currently available local keypoint descriptors are based on the uses of statistical analysis in spatial domain, a local keypoint descriptor, namely Radial Fourier Analysis (RFA) keypoint descriptor, is ...
متن کاملAssigning Main Orientation to an EOH Descriptor on Multispectral Images
This paper proposes an approach to compute an EOH (edge-oriented histogram) descriptor with main orientation. EOH has a better matching ability than SIFT (scale-invariant feature transform) on multispectral images, but does not assign a main orientation to keypoints. Alternatively, it tends to assign the same main orientation to every keypoint, e.g., zero degrees. This limits EOH to matching ke...
متن کاملBIG-OH: BInarization of gradient orientation histograms
a r t i c l e i n f o Extracting local keypoints and keypoint descriptions from images is a primary step for many computer vision and image retrieval applications. In the literature, many researchers have proposed methods for representing local texture around keypoints with varying levels of robustness to photometric and geometric transformations. Gradient-based descriptors such as the Scale In...
متن کاملSoftcbir : Object Searching in Videos Combining Keypoint Matching and Graduated Assignment
This paper proposes a new approach to object searching in video databases, SoftCBIR, which combines a keypoint matching algorithm and a graduated assignment algorithm based on softassign. Compared with previous approaches, SoftCBIR is an innovative combination of two powerful techniques: 1) An energy minimization algorithm is applied to match two groups of keypoints while accounting for both th...
