Handle identification by keypoint extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Door identification is a key problem to be solved during mobile robot navigation. Doors give access to many locations that are defined as goals for the robot. This paper presents an approach to door identification by means of recognition of the door handle. Rather than using the lines defined by the door blades, the region of interest of an image is extracted by means of the Hough transform and afterwards keypoints are obtained and matched against a database in order to positively recognize the door. The keypoint extraction is performed using three different methods, SIFT, SURF and its upright variant USURF, that are compared in terms of different performance measures. The approach is evaluated and tested on a real PeopleBot robot.

Visual Approaches for Handle Recognition
Objects can be identified in images extracting local image descriptors for interesting regions. In this paper, instead of making the handle identification process rely in the keypoint detection/matching process only, we present a method that first extracts from the image a region of interest (ROI) that with high probability contains the handle. This subimage is then processed by the keypoint de...
متن کاملKeypoint Identification and Feature-Based 3D Face Recognition
We present a feature-based 3D face recognition algorithm and propose a keypoint identification technique which is repeatable and identifies keypoints where shape variation is high in 3D faces. Moreover, a unique 3D coordinate basis can be defined locally at each keypoint facilitating the extraction of highly descriptive pose invariant features. A feature is extracted by fitting a surface to the...
متن کاملFace recognition based on the multi-scale local image structures
This paper proposes a framework of face recognition based on the multi-scale local structures of the face image. While some basic tools in this framework are inherited from the SIFT algorithm, this work investigates and contributes to all major steps in the feature extraction and image matching. New approaches to keypoint detection, partial descriptor and insignificant keypoint removal are prop...
متن کاملAccelerated Keypoint Extraction
Keypoints have become a fundamental feature in image and video processing. This article presents a wavelet-inspired structure to speed up the keypoint extraction process. The method restricts the extraction process to high variance areas solely, deemed likely to provide keypoints. The variance is calculated at different scales according to a hierarchical structure inspired from the Haar wavelet...

Diabetic retinopathy, a subject of many studies in the medical image processing field since long time, is one of the major complications of diabetes mellitus and it cause blindness. In this study, we proposed a method that consist of keypoint detector-feature extraction-reduction process and classifier stages within the framework of hybrid approach for the detection of hard exudates. This metho...
