Contour Grouping and Abstraction Using Simple Part Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
We address the problem of contour-based perceptual grouping using a user-defined vocabulary of simple part models. We train a family of classifiers on the vocabulary, and apply them to a region oversegmentation of the input image to detect closed contours that are consistent with some shape in the vocabulary. Given such a set of consistent cycles, they are both abstracted and categorized through a novel application of an active shape model also trained on the vocabulary. From an image of a real object, our framework recovers the projections of the abstract surfaces that comprise an idealized model of the object. We evaluate our framework on a newly constructed dataset annotated with a set of ground truth abstract surfaces.

متن کاملPerceptual Grouping Using Markov Random Fields and Cue Integration of Contour and Region Information
A common feature of computer vision systems is the use of levels of increasing abstraction to represent intermediate results and thus successively bridging the gap between raw image data and the nal result. To elaborate on such a hierarchical representation we propose a contour-based grouping hierarchy based on principles of perceptual organization. Exploiting regularities in the image, we aim ...
متن کاملContour Fragment Grouping and Shared, Simple Occluders
Bounding contours of physical objects are often fragmented by other occluding objects. Long-distance perceptual grouping seeks to join fragments belonging to the same object. Approaches to grouping based on invariants assume objects are in restricted classes, while those based on minimal energy continuations assume a shape for the missing contours and require this shape to drive the grouping pr...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of proximal contour of class II composite restorations placed with straight or contoured matrix band using composite resins with different modulus of elasticity on stress distribution by finite element method. Methods: In order to evaluate the stress distribution of class II composite restorations using finite element method, upper ...
متن کاملPart-based Grouping and Recognition: A Model-Guided Approach
The recovery of generic solid parts is a fundamental step towards the realization of general-purpose vision systems. This thesis investigates issues in grouping, segmentation and recognition of parts from two-dimensional edge images. A new paradigm of part-based grouping of features is introduced that bridges the classical grouping and model-based approaches with the purpose of directly recover...
