Adaptive Structure Tensors and their Applications

چکیده
The structure tensor, also known as second moment matrix or Förstner interest operator, is a very popular tool in image processing. Its purpose is the estimation of orientation and the local analysis of structure in general. It is based on the integration of data from a local neighborhood. Normally, this neighborhood is defined by a Gaussian window function and the structure tensor is computed by the weighted sum within this window. Some recently proposed methods, however, adapt the computation of the structure tensor to the image data. There are several ways how to do that. This article wants to give an overview of the different approaches, whereas the focus lies on the methods based on robust statistics and nonlinear diffusion. Furthermore, the dataadaptive structure tensors are evaluated in some applications. Here the main focus lies on optic flow estimation, but also texture analysis and corner detection are considered.

Curvature collineations on Lie algebroid structure
Considering prolongation of a Lie algebroid equipped with a spray, defining some classical tensors, we show that a Lie symmetry of a spray is a curvature collineation for these tensors.
متن کاملA New Structure for Direct Measurement of Temperature Based on Negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System
Thermistors are very commonly used for narrow temperature-range high-resolution applications, such as in medicine, calorimetry, and near ambient temperature measurements. In particular, Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor is very inexpensive and highly sensitive, whose sensing temperature range and sensitivity are highly limited due to the intrinsic nonlinearity and self-heating p...
متن کاملStatistical cosymplectic manifolds and their submanifolds
In this paper, we introduce statistical cosymplectic manifolds and investigate some properties of their tensors. We define invariant and anti-invariant submanifolds and study invariant submanifolds with normal and tangent structure vector fields. We prove that an invariant submanifold of a statistical cosymplectic manifold with tangent structure vector field is a cosymplectic and minimal...

متن کاملDTI Smoothing by Hierarchical, Adaptive and Robust Strategy
Introduction Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been widely used to construct the orientation and structure of fibers in biological tissues, particularly in the white matter of the brain [1]. The raw diffusion-weighted images (DWI) from which diffusion tensors are estimated, however, inherently contain large amounts of noise, leading to uncertainty in the estimation of the tensors and their der...
