A Detection Method of a White Road Line Using Jensen-Shannon Divergence and Morphology

چکیده

The road surface inspection is proceeded by a human expert with an image that is generated through a laser imaging system. Although the imaging system can provides a fixed lighting condition, it produces a low contrast image for a white and a yellow road line. In this paper, a new detection method of white road line detection from a low contrast road surface image is proposed. The first. stage of the processing is an edge detection operation by the Jensen-Shannon divergence method. And the second is a binarization operation using discriminant and least squares threshold selection method. By taking an intersection of the two resulting images of these processing, the final detecting result can be obtained. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a high enough performance for the practical use.

An Optimal Segmentation Method Using Jensen-Shannon Divergence via a Multi-Size Sliding Window Technique

In this paper we develop a new procedure for entropic image edge detection. The presented method computes the Jensen–Shannon divergence of the normalized grayscale histogram of a set of multi-sized double sliding windows over the entire image. The procedure presents a good performance in images with textures, contrast variations and noise. We illustrate our procedure in the edge detection of me...

Automatic Detection of Texture-defects using Texture-periodicity and Jensen-Shannon Divergence

In this paper, we propose a new machine vision algorithm for automatic defect detection on patterned textures with the help of texture-periodicity and the JensenShannon Divergence, which is a symmetrized and smoothed version of the KullbackLeibler Divergence. Input defective images are split into several blocks of the same size as the size of the periodic unit of the image. Based on histograms ...

A Graph Embedding Method Using the Jensen-Shannon Divergence

Riesen and Bunke recently proposed a novel dissimilarity based approach for embedding graphs into a vector space. One drawback of their approach is the computational cost graph edit operations required to compute the dissimilarity for graphs. In this paper we explore whether the Jensen-Shannon divergence can be used as a means of computing a fast similarity measure between a pair of graphs. We ...

Inequalities between the Jenson-Shannon and Jeffreys divergences

The last line follows from the previous line by a second application of the same Jensen inequality. Since the J-divergence ranges between zero and positive in nity, whereas the Jensen-Shannon divergence ranges between zero and ln 2 [i.e. 1 bit], this inequality has the correct limits for identical (pi = qi, JS(p;q) = Jeffreys(p;q) = 0) and orthogonal (piqi = 0, JS(p;q) = ln 2, Jeffreys(p;q) = +...
