A Probabilistic Approach to Geometric Hashing Using Line Features

چکیده

One of the most important goals of computer vision research is object recognition. Most current object recognition algorithms assume reliable image segmentation, which in practice is often not available. This research exploits the combination of the Hough method with the geometric hashing technique for model-based object recognition in seriously degraded intensity images. We describe the analysis, design and implementation of a recognition system that can recognize, in a seriously degraded intensity image, multiple objects modeled by a collection of lines. We rst examine the factors a ecting line extraction by the Hough transform and proposed various techniques to cope with them. Line features are then used as primitive features from which we compute the geometric invariants used by the geometric hashing technique. Various geometric transformations, including rigid, similarity, a ne and projective transformations, are examined. We then derive the \spread" of computed invariant over the hash space caused by \perturbation" of the lines giving rise to this invariant. This is the rst of its kind for noise analysis on line features for geometric hashing. The result of the noise analysis is then used in a weighted voting scheme for the geometric hashing technique. We have implemented the system described and carried out a series of experiments on polygonal objects modeled by lines, assuming a ne approximations to perspective viewing transformations. Our experimental results show that the technique described is noise resistant and suitable in an environment containing many occlusions.

Compressed Image Hashing using Minimum Magnitude CSLBP

Image hashing allows compression, enhancement or other signal processing operations on digital images which are usually acceptable manipulations. Whereas, cryptographic hash functions are very sensitive to even single bit changes in image. Image hashing is a sum of important quality features in quantized form. In this paper, we proposed a novel image hashing algorithm for authentication which i...

Shape - based Image Retrieval Using Geometric Hashing

We present a general strategy for shape-based image retrieval which considers similarity modulo a given transformation group G. The shape content of an image is summarized by recording what geometric primitives, such as line segments and circular arcs, t where in the image. Geometric hashing is used to compute a set of primitive features which are invariant under a G-transformation of the image...

A Model-Based 3-D Object Recognition System using Geometric Hashing with Attributed Features

We build an object recognition system that is able to recognize 3-D objects such as vehicles embedded in highly complicated backgrounds. We use the geometric hashing method, augmenting the approach through the use of attributed features, k-d trees for access to features, and the use of bounds in order to limit the search. We make use of expressive features to improve the performance of a geomet...

Image authentication using LBP-based perceptual image hashing

Feature extraction is a main step in all perceptual image hashing schemes in which robust features will led to better results in perceptual robustness. Simplicity, discriminative power, computational efficiency and robustness to illumination changes are counted as distinguished properties of Local Binary Pattern features. In this paper, we investigate the use of local binary patterns for percep...
