Fuzzy Relative Position Between Objects in Image Processing: A Morphological Approach

نویسنده

  • Isabelle Bloch
چکیده

In order to cope with the ambiguity of spatial relative position concepts, we propose a new definition of the relative position between two objects in a fuzzy set framework. This definition is based on a morphological and fuzzy pattern-matching approach, and consists of comparing an object to a fuzzy landscape representing the degree of satisfaction of a directional relationship to a reference object. It has good formal properties, it is flexible, it fits the intuition, and it can be used for structural pattern recognition under imprecision. Moreover, it also applies in 3D and for fuzzy objects issued from images.

A NEW FUZZY MORPHOLOGY APPROACH BASED ON THE FUZZY-VALUED GENERALIZED DEMPSTER-SHAFER THEORY

In this paper, a new Fuzzy Morphology (FM) based on the GeneralizedDempster-Shafer Theory (GDST) is proposed. At first, in order to clarify the similarity ofdefinitions between Mathematical Morphology (MM) and Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST),dilation and erosion morphological operations are studied from a different viewpoint. Then,based on this similarity, a FM based on the GDST is proposed. Unlik...

Directional relative position between objects in image processing: a comparison between fuzzy approaches

The importance of describing relationships between objects has been highlighted in works in very di0erent areas, including image understanding. Among these relationships, directional relative position relations are important since they provide an important information about the spatial arrangement of objects in the scene. Such concepts are rather ambiguous, they defy precise de2nitions, but hum...

Micro-classification of orchards and agricultural croplands by applying object based image analysis and fuzzy algorithms for estimating the area under cultivation

Remote sensing technology is one of the most efficient and innovative technologies for agricultural land use/cover mapping. In this regard, the object-based Image Analysis (OBIA) is known as a new method of satellite image processing which integrates spatial and spectral information for satellite image process. This approach make use of spectral, environmental, physical and geometrical characte...

The human facial recognition is the base for all facial processing systems. In this work a basicmethod is presented for the reduction of detection time in fixed image with different color levels.The proposed method is the simplest approach in face spatial localization, since it doesn’trequire the dynamics of images and information of the color of skin in image background. Inaddition, to do face...
