Evaluation of Methods for Ridge and Valley Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ridges and valleys are useful geometric features for image analysis. Different characterizations have been proposed to formalize the intuitive notion of ridge/valley. In this paper, we review their principal characterizations and propose a new one. Subsequently, we evaluate these characterizations with respect to a list of desirable properties and their purpose in the context of representative image analysis tasks.

Ridges and Valleys Detection in Images Using Difference of Rotating Half Smoothing Filters
In this paper we propose a new ridge/valley detection method in images based on the difference of rotating Gaussian semi filters. The novelty of this approach resides in the mixing of ideas coming both from directional filters and DoG method. We obtain a new ridge/valley anisotropic DoG detector enabling very precise detection of ridge/valley points. Moreover, this detector performs correctly a...
متن کاملA Robust Strucutural Fingerprint Restoration
Fast and accurate ridge detection in fingerprints is essential to each AFIS (Automatic Fingerprint Identification System). Smudged furrows and cut ridges in the image of a finger print are major problems in any AFIS. This paper investigates a new online ridge detection method that reduces the complexity and costs associated with the fingerprint identification procedure. The noise in fingerprint...
متن کاملDetection of Outliers and Influential Observations in Linear Ridge Measurement Error Models with Stochastic Linear Restrictions
The aim of this paper is to propose some diagnostic methods in linear ridge measurement error models with stochastic linear restrictions using the corrected likelihood. Based on the bias-corrected estimation of model parameters, diagnostic measures are developed to identify outlying and influential observations. In addition, we derive the corrected score test statistic for outliers detection ba...
متن کاملEffect of landform and edaphic characteristics on the presence and vegetative traits of Rhamnus pallasii in Andabil forest, Khalkhal region
Rhamnus pallasii is one of important and valuable species in Khalkhal forest area.This study aimed to determine the relationship between vegetation properties of Rhamnus pallasii with soil and physiographic factors in this forest reserve. For this purpose, from 1030 to 2540 m.a.s.l, 48 sample plots of circular shape with an area of 500 m2, in three land forms (ridge, valley and slope) in four a...
متن کاملRidge-Valley graphs: Combinatorial ridge detection using Jacobi sets
Ridges are one of the key feature of interest in areas such as computer vision and image processing. Even though a significant amount of research has been directed to defining and extracting ridges some fundamental challenges remain. For example, the most popular ridge definition (height ridge) is not invariant under monotonic transformations and its global structure is typically ignored during...
