Object Cues for Model-based Image Interpretation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with generating object cues from grey-level images for use in model-based image interpretation. We describe the idea of local grey-level symmetry and illustrate how points in the grey-level image with this property form local axes of symmetry. These axes together with appropriate scale information form the object cues. The degree of local symmetry in the grey-level image is made explicit by introducing a Centre of Gravity filter. The local axes of symmetry are shown to appear in the centre of gravity image as troughs and a method for labelling the troughs is described. We give results for real images and make an objective comparison with other published methods.

Object-Oriented Method for Automatic Extraction of Road from High Resolution Satellite Images
As the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. This processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...
متن کاملImage Interpretation: Exploiting Multiple Cues
Multiple cues play a crucial role in image interpretation. A vision system that combines shape, colour, motion, prior scene knowledge and object motion behaviour is described. We show that the use of interpretation strategies which depend on the image data, temporal context and visual goals significantly simplifies the complexity of the image interpretation problem and makes it computationally ...

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new method for kernel based object tracking which tracks the complete non rigid object. Definition the union image blob and mapping it to a new representation which we named as potential pixels matrix are the main part of tracking algorithm. The union image blob is constructed by expanding the previous object region based on the histogram feature. The pote...
