A Comparative Study on Discrete Orthonormal Chebyshev Moments and Legendre Moments for Representation of Printed Characters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Moment functions are widely used in image analysis as feature descriptors. Compared to geometric moments, orthogonal moments have become more popular in image analysis for their better representation capabilities. In comparison to continuous orthogonal moments discrete orthogonal moments provide a more accurate description of the image features. This paper compares the performance of discrete orthonormal Chebyshev moments with continuous orthogonal Legendre moments for representation of noisy printed characters of the Assamese alphabet. Experimental results show that at all noise levels Chebyshev moments outperforms Legendre moments. The performance of both the moments increases when higher order moments are considered but after some point the performance of Chebyshev moments decreases.

Image representation using separable two-dimensional continuous and discrete orthogonal moments
This paper addresses bivariate orthogonal polynomials, which are a tensor product of two different orthogonal polynomials in one variable. These bivariate orthogonal polynomials are used to define several new types of continuous and discrete orthogonal moments. Some elementary properties of the proposed continuous Chebyshev–Gegenbauer moments (CGM), Gegenbauer–Legendre moments (GLM), and Chebys...

In this paper, a new set of discrete orthogonal polynomials, namely Hahn polynomials, are introduced. The related Hahn moment functions defined on thi...
متن کاملInvariant Descriptors and Classifiers Combination for Recognition of Isolated Printed Tifinagh Characters
In order to improve the recognition rate, this document proposes an automatic system to recognize isolated printed Tifinagh characters by using a fusion of 3 classifiers and a combination of some features extraction methods. The Legendre moments, Zernike moments and Hu moments are used as descriptors in the features extraction phase due to their invariance to translation, rotation and scaling c...
متن کاملImproving Image Reconstruction Accuracy Using Discrete Orthonormal Moments
− Several pattern recognition applications use orthogonal moments to capture independent shape characteristics of an image, with minimum amount of information redundancy in a feature set. Legendre, Zernike, and Pseudo-Zernike moments are examples of such orthogonal feature descriptors. An image can also be reconstructed from a sufficiently large number of orthogonal moments. Discrete orthogonal...
متن کاملImage Analysis by Tchebichef Moments
This paper introduces a new set of orthogonal moment functions based on the discrete Tchebichef polynomials. The Tchebichef moments can be effectively used as pattern features in the analysis of two-dimensional images. The implementation of moments proposed in this paper does not involve any numerical approximation, since the basis set is orthogonal in the discrete domain of the image coordinat...
