چکیده

A technique for classifying variable objects using flexible template models is described. A model representing each class of object is generated from training examples and during recognition each model is fitted to the input image. The object represented by the model that maximises a fit measure is recognised as the input. The method has been tested on plant seeds, handprinted characters and human faces; quantitative results are presented.

Classifying Variable Objects Using a Flexible Shape Model

Point Distribution Models (PDMs) are statistical mo dels which represent objects whose shape can vary. A useful feature of PDMs is their ability to capture the shape of variable objects within a training set with a small number of shape parameters. This compact and accurate parametrization can be used for the design of efficient classification systems. In this paper we de scribe a classificatio...

An Adaptive Welding System for Corner Joints Which Applies Joint Recognition by Deformable Template Matching

This paper presents an application of a flexible model-based template matching algorithm named "deformable template matching." The template which models the shape of objects consists of some nodal points and segments that connect the nodal points sequentially. The template holds information about the known deformation of the object's shape, and it makes the shape recognition flexible. The match...

A Generic System for Image Interpretation Using Flexible Templates

We describe a generic approach to image interpretation, based on combining a general method of building flexible template models with Genetic Algorithm (GA) search. The method can be applied to a given image interpretation problem simply by training a Point Distribution Model (PDM), using a set of examples of the image structure to be located. A local optimisation technique, developed for use w...

A Face/Object Recognition System Using FPGA Implementation of Coarse Region Segmentation

A PC system for recognition of natural scene images including human faces and various objects is proposed. Coarse region segmentation of real images with 64×64 pixels at the video rate is achieved by using the FPGA implementation of resistive-fuse networks. A flexible template matching based on dynamic-link architecture is performed on our PC system.

A unified approach to visual tracking and servoing

In this paper, we present a generic and flexible system for vision-based robot control. The system integrates several research areas (visual matching, visual tracking and visual servoing) in a unifying framework. In this framework, the flexibility is obtained using a template matching algorithm based on an efficient second-order minimization. Contrarily to feature-based visual servoing schemes,...
