Extending the Scale Invariant Feature Transform Descriptor into the Color Domain
نویسندگان
چکیده
In recent years, Lowe’s Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) algorithm has become a widely used tool for object recognition. One shortcoming is that it only works on grayscale image intensities. In this paper, we propose extending the SIFT descriptor to also incorporate color information in a novel fashion. The keypoint descriptor proposed in this paper is a superset of the original feature vector and works exactly the same on grayscale or single band images as well as in regions of a color image that are essentially monochromatic. Examples are presented to demonstrate the properties and matching capability of the new descriptor in color image processing.

Targets and objects registration and tracking in a sequence of images play an important role in various areas. One of the methods in image registration is feature-based algorithm which is accomplished in two steps. The first step includes finding features of sensed and reference images. In this step, a scale space is used to reduce the sensitivity of detected features to the scale changes. Afterw...

Based on the feature matching theory about SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) keypoints, the concentric circle structure and the color feature vector of scale-invariant descriptor are proposed in this paper. In the concentric circle structure, the radiuses of the concentric circles are proportional to the scale factor, which can achieve the scale invariance. To achieve the rotation invari...

Scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) transforms a grayscale image into scale-invariant coordinates of local features that are invariant to image scale, rotation, and changing viewpoints. Because of its scale-invariant properties, SIFT has been successfully used for object recognition and content-based image retrieval. The biggest drawback of SIFT is that it uses only grayscale information a...
