Affine invariant hyperspectral image descriptors based upon harmonic analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter focuses on the problem of recovering a hyperspectral image descriptor based upon harmonic analysis. It departs from the use of integral transforms to model hyperspectral images in terms of probability distributions. This provides a link between harmonic analysi and affine geometric transformations between object surface planes in the scene. Moreover, the use of harmonic analysis permits the study of these descriptors in the context of Hilbert spaces. This, in turn, provides a connection to functional analysis to capture the spectral crosscorrelation between bands in the image for the generation of a descriptor with a high energy compaction ratio. Thus, descriptors can be computed based upon orthogonal bases capable of capturing the space and wavelength correlation for the spectra in the hyperspectral imagery under study. We illustrate the utility of our descriptor for purposes of object recognition on a hyperspectral image dataset of real-world objects and compare our results to those yielded using an alternative.

متن کاملAffine Invariant Interesting Descriptors
Component trees or level set graphs have proved to be efficient tools for the extraction of stable features in many image analysis and understanding applications. In this paper, we explore the relation between level sets as feature descriptors and curvature scale-space. While most classical image feature detectors are based on linear scale-space, affine-invariant descriptors can be related to t...
متن کاملContour Retrieval and Matching by Affine Invariant Fourier Descriptors
In the image plane, a 3 Dimensional movement of planar rigid object can be represented satisfactory by an affine motion of his boundary (the exterior contour) which we assume to be closed. The object movement can be described by a special affine transformation of the plane IR 2 . The extraction of invariant features under affinities is important in such procedure. Recently we have proposed a ne...
متن کاملImproving Performances of BoW-based Image Retrieval by Using Contextual Keypoint Descriptors
The paper reports an improved method of content-based image retrieval using a well-known method of bag-of words (BoW). Words built over descriptors of popular affine-invariant keypoint detectors (Harris-Affine and Hessian-Affine are exemplary choices) are used. What is novel, however, is the number of descriptors (i.e. the number of words) representing individual keypoints. Instead of SIFT (or ...
متن کاملObject descriptors invariant to affine distortions
The Trace transform is a generalisation of the Radon transform that allows us to construct image features that are invariant to a chosen group of image transformations. In this paper we propose functionals which can be computed from the image function, and which can be used to describe objects in a way that is invariant to the group of affine transforms. We demonstrate the usefulness of the con...
