Shadow Detection and its Removal in Images: A Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Detecting objects under the influence of shadows is a difficult in computer vision. Shadows acts as barrier in correcting feature extraction of image features like buildings, towers etc. In urban regions, shadows cause artificial color nature and shape deformation of objects, which degrades the quality of images. In apparent path detection application, strong shadows on the road troubles the detection of the boundary between clear path and obstacles, making clear path detection algorithms less robust. Shadows affect many object detection algorithms. This paper is aimed to provide a survey on methodology and various algorithms and methods of shadow detection and removal. Keywords—Shadow Detection, Shadow Removal, Computer Vision

A multi-scale convolutional neural network for automatic cloud and cloud shadow detection from Gaofen-1 images
The reconstruction of the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow is an important step in pre-processing of high-resolution satellite images. The cloud and cloud shadow automatic segmentation could be the first step in the process of reconstructing the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow. This stage is a remarkable challenge due to the relatively inefficient performanc...
متن کاملTechniques and Algorithms of Shadow Detection in Images
Shadow detection is useful in many applications like image segmentation, scene interpretation and object recognition/tracking. Shadow in images is formed when direct light from a light source cannot reach due to obstruction by an object. Shadow removal is a critical step for improving object detection and tracking. Many algorithms for shadow detection have been proposed in the literature. This ...
متن کاملShadow Detection and its Removal from Images Using Strong Edge Detection Method
Shadows cause problems in image processing. In this paper, a new methodology for shadow removal based on Strong Edge Detection (SED) method is proposed. The strong shadow edges are recognized by learning the patch based characteristics of shadow edges and then image features are analyzed to guide a Shadow Edge Classifier. Also, spatial patch smoothing is used to enforce uniformity between adjac...

متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Quality Enhancement Methods of Remote Sensing Images by Object Oriented Shadow Detection and Removal
Shadow will occur by sunlight or any light sources. In the area of machine vision, shadows occur frequently in a wide variety of scenes. In many cases, this is undesirable due to the fact that they often lead to the result of irretrievable processing failures. In this paper, we introduce a novel shadow detection and removal technique that produces a shadow-free scene. In this method, shadow fea...
