چکیده

We investigate transform coding to efficiently store and transmit SIFT and SURF image descriptors. We show that image and feature matching algorithms are robust to significantly compressed features. We achieve nearperfect image matching and retrieval for both SIFT and SURF using ∼2 bits/dimension. When applied to SIFT and SURF, this provides a 16× compression relative to conventional floating point representation. We establish a strong correlation between MSE and matching error for feature points and images. Feature compression enables many application that may not otherwise be possible, especially on mobile devices.

Applying Computer Vision Techniques to Topographic Objects

Automatic structuring (feature coding and object recognition) of topographic data, such as that derived from air survey or raster scanning large-scale paper maps, requires the classification of objects such as buildings, roads, rivers, fields and railways. The recognition of objects is largely based on the matching of descriptions of shapes. Fourier descriptors, moment invariants, boundary chai...

Airplane detection based on rotation invariant and sparse coding in remote sensing images

Airplane detection has been taking a great interest to researchers in the remote sensing filed. In this paper, we propose a new approach on feature extraction for airplane detection based on sparse coding in high resolution optical remote sensing images. However, direction of airplane in images brings difficulty on feature extraction. We focus on the airplane feature possessing rotation invaria...

Discriminative Data Transform for Image Feature Extraction and Classification

Good feature design is important to achieve effective image classification. This paper presents a novel feature design with two main contributions. First, prior to computing the feature descriptors, we propose to transform the images with learning-based filters to obtain more representative feature descriptors. Second, we propose to transform the computed descriptors with another set of learnin...

Face Image Retrieval Based on Probe Sketch Using SIFT Feature Descriptors

This paper presents a feature-based method for matching facial sketch images to face photographs. Earlier approaches calculated descriptors over the whole image and used some transformation and matched them by some classifiers. We present an idea, where descriptors are calculated at selected discrete points (eyes, nose, ears...). This allows us to compare only prominent features. We use SIFT (S...

Second-Order Statistical Texture Representation of Asphalt Pavement Distress Images Based on Local Binary Pattern in Spatial and Wavelet Domain

Assessment of pavement distresses is one of the important parts of pavement management systems to adopt the most effective road maintenance strategy. In the last decade, extensive studies have been done to develop automated systems for pavement distress processing based on machine vision techniques. One of the most important structural components of computer vision is the feature extraction met...
