Contextless Object Recognition with Shape-enriched SIFT and Bags of Features
Contextless Object Recognition with Shape-enriched SIFT and Bags of FeaturesUniversitat Politècnica de Catalunya

Abstract:
Currently, there are highly competitive results in the field of object recognition based on the aggregation of point-based features. The aggregation process, typically with an average or max-pooling of the features generates a single vector that represents the image or region that contains the object.
The aggregated point-based features typically describe the texture around the points with descriptors such as SIFT. These descriptors present limitations for wired and textureless objects. A possible solution is the addition of shape-based information. Shape descriptors have been previously used to encode shape information and thus, recognise those types of objects. But generally an alignment step is required in order to match every point from one shape to other ones. The computational cost of the similarity assessment is high.
We purpose to enrich location and texture-based features with shape-based ones. Two main architectures are explored: On the one side, to enrich the SIFT descriptors with shape information before they are aggregated. On the other side, to create the standard Bag of Words histogram and concatenate a shape histogram, classifying them as a single vector.
We evaluate the proposed techniques and the novel features on the Caltech-101 dataset.
Results show that shape features increase the final performance. Our extension of the Bag of Words with a shape-based histogram(BoW+S) results in better performance. However, for a high number of shape features, BoW+S and enriched SIFT architectures tend to converge.Template matching03
Template matching is a technique used to classify objects by comparing portions of images against templates. It involves moving a template image across a larger source image to find the best match based on pixel-by-pixel comparisons of brightness levels. For gray-level images, the difference in brightness levels at each pixel location is used rather than a simple yes/no match. Template matching is commonly used to identify simple objects like printed characters. Matlab examples demonstrate template matching on sample data sets and correlation maps show the strength of matches across the source images.
bag-of-words models
This document provides an overview of bag-of-words models for image classification. It discusses how bag-of-words models originated from texture recognition and document classification. Images are represented as histograms of visual word frequencies. A visual vocabulary is learned by clustering local image features, and each cluster center becomes a visual word. Both discriminative methods like support vector machines and generative methods like Naive Bayes are used to classify images based on their bag-of-words representations.
Multi-legged Robot Walking Strategies, with an Emphasis on Image-based Methods
The document outlines a research project on developing edge detection methods and walking strategies for multi-legged robots. It discusses using morphological operations on hexagonal grid images to remove noise and detect edges for low resolution images in real-time applications with low computational power. It describes developing structuring elements of various sizes and directions, and comparing performance of hexagonal versus rectangular grid images. The document also explores using fuzzy morphology and discusses evaluating different methods to determine the optimal approach for edge detection to enable efficient walking strategies for robots with damaged legs.

11.comparative analysis and evaluation of image imprinting algorithms
This document compares and evaluates two image inpainting algorithms: Marcelo Bertalmio's PDE-based algorithm and Zhaolin Lu et al's exemplar-based algorithm. Through experiments on images with different sized occluded regions, it finds that the PDE-based algorithm cannot reconnect structures or restore textures in large regions, while the exemplar-based algorithm can find patches to fill regions while preserving structures. Quantitative evaluation using PSNR shows the exemplar-based algorithm achieves lower MSE (error) for occlusion sizes from 10 to 40 pixels. The document provides examples comparing output of the two algorithms and discusses parameters needed for each.
Comparative analysis and evaluation of image imprinting algorithms
This document compares and evaluates two different types of image inpainting algorithms: Marcelo Bertalmio's PDE-based algorithm and Zhaolin Lu et al's exemplar-based algorithm. Both algorithms are tested on images with variable occlusion sizes. The PDE-based algorithm is better at preserving linear structures for small regions but cannot reconnect structures or restore texture in large regions. The exemplar-based algorithm can find proper textures to fill large regions while preserving linear structures. Quantitative evaluation using PSNR shows that the exemplar-based algorithm achieves lower MSE values, especially for larger occlusion sizes. Therefore, the exemplar-based algorithm produces better results overall, particularly for filling in large missing regions of an image.

Object video tracking using a pan tilt-zoom system
This document describes an object video tracking system that uses a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera mounted on a rotating platform to track objects in video frames. Three tracking algorithms were implemented and compared: template matching, contour matching, and optical flow. The system was able to successfully track rigid objects up to 400x300 pixels at 30 degrees/second pan and 15 degrees/second tilt rotation. Tracking was stable with rotation and scaling but faults occurred with occlusion or fast target motion.

Visual Object Tracking: review
The KLT tracker is a classic algorithm for visual object tracking published in 1981. It works by tracking feature points between consecutive video frames using the Lucas-Kanade optical flow method. The KLT tracker is still widely used due to its computational efficiency and availability in many computer vision libraries. However, it is best suited for tracking textured objects and may struggle with uniform textures or large displacements between frames.

Enhanced Latent Fingerprint Segmentation through Dictionary Based Approach
The accuracy of latent finger print matching compared to roll and plain finger print
matching is significantly lower due to background noise, poor ridge quality and overlapping
structured noise in latent images. In this paper the proposed algorithm is dictionary-based approach
for automatic segmentation and enhancement towards the goal of achieving “lights out” latent
identifications system. Total variation decomposition model with L1 fidelity regularization in latent
finger print image remove background noise. A coarse to fine strategy is used to improve robustness
and accuracy. It improves the computational efficiency of the algorithm.
Image segmentation
Image segmentation refers to decomposing a scene into components. There is no single correct segmentation. Segmentation techniques include edge-based, region-filling, color-based using color spaces, texture-based, disparity-based, motion-based, and techniques for documents, medical, range, and biometric images. The k-means clustering algorithm is commonly used to group similar pixels into segments via an iterative process of assignment and centroid update.
Conditional Random Fields
Conditional random fields (CRFs) are probabilistic models for segmenting and labeling sequence data. CRFs address limitations of previous models like hidden Markov models (HMMs) and maximum entropy Markov models (MEMMs). CRFs allow incorporation of arbitrary, overlapping features of the observation sequence and label dependencies. Parameters are estimated to maximize the conditional log-likelihood using iterative scaling or tracking partial feature expectations. Experiments show CRFs outperform HMMs and MEMMs on synthetic and real-world tasks by addressing label bias problems and modeling dependencies beyond the previous label.

object 3d(1)
The document discusses several methods for solid modeling representation: voxels, quadtrees and octrees, binary space partitions (BSP), and constructive solid geometry (CSG). Voxels represent space as a 3D grid but require large storage. Quadtrees and octrees refine voxel resolution hierarchically. BSPs recursively partition space with planes into convex regions. CSG represents solids as a hierarchy of boolean operations on primitives. Each method has advantages and disadvantages for storage, acquisition, display, and boolean operations.
A Combined Method with automatic parameter optimization for Multi-class Image...
Multi-class image semantic segmentation deals with many applications in consumer electronics
fields such as image editing and image retrieval. Segmentation is done by combining the top down and bottomup
segmentation. Top-Down Process can be done by Semantic Texton Forest and bottom up- process using
JSEG. These two segmentation process can be executed in a combined manner. But this cannot choose the
optimal value of JSEG parameter for each interested semantic category. Hence an automatic parameter selection
algorithm has been proposed. An automatic parameter selection technique called an automatic multilevel
thresholding algorithm using stratified sampling and PSO is used to remedy the limitations.
Semantics In Digital Photos A Contenxtual Analysis
Interpreting the semantics of an image is a hard problem. However, for storing and indexing large multimedia collections,
it is essential to build systems that can automatically extract semantics from images. In this research we show how we can fuse content and context to extract semantics from digital photographs. Our experiments show that if we can properly model context associated with media, we can interpret semantics using only a part of high dimensional content data.

Hidden Markov Random Fields and Swarm Particles: a Winning Combination in Ima...
Image segmentation, a process used to partition images into distinctive regions, is a crucial task in many nowadays ubiquitous applications. Several methods have been developed to perform segmentation. We present a method that combines Hidden Markov Random Fields (HMRF) and Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) to perform segmentation. HMRF is used for modelling the segmentation problem. This elegant model leads to an optimization problem. The latter is solved using PSO method whose parameters setting is a task in itself. We conduct a study for the choice of parameters that give a good segmentation. The quality of segmentation is evaluated on grounds truths images using Misclassification Error criterion. We use the NDT (Non Destructive Testing) image dataset to evaluate several segmentation methods. These results show a supremacy of the HMRF-PSO method over threshold based techniques.
morph.ppt
Here are a few ways morphological operations can help with this problem:
1. Apply opening or closing to clean up noise and irregularities in the image. This will help straighten out lines.
2. Use a linear structuring element at different orientations (0, 45, 90, 135 degrees) and take the erosion or dilation. Pixels that change value indicate a line segment at that orientation.
3. Compute the skeleton of the image. Skeleton pixels indicate centers of object shapes like lines. Measure the local orientation of skeleton branches to determine line directions.
4. Apply a Hough transform to detect linear structures. This transforms the image into a parameter space where lines stand out as peaks. It explicitly detects parameters

This document summarizes a dissertation on developing new priors and algorithms for signal recovery problems solved via convex optimization. Chapter 4 proposes a blockwise low-rank prior called the Block Nuclear Norm (BNN) to better model texture patterns in images. BNN represents textures as locally low-rank blocks under different shears. Chapter 5 introduces the Local Color Nuclear Norm (LCNN) prior to promote the color-line property and reduce color artifacts in restored images. Chapter 6 develops a hierarchical convex optimization algorithm using primal-dual splitting to solve problems with non-unique solutions and non-strictly convex objectives.
Super Resolution of Image
1. The document presents a method for super resolution of text images using ant colony optimization. It involves registering multiple low resolution images, fusing them, performing soft classification to assign pixel values to multiple classes, and using ant colony optimization for super resolution mapping to increase the resolution.
2. Key steps include SURF-based image registration, intensity-based and discrete wavelet transform fusion, decision tree-based soft classification, and ant colony optimization to assign pixel values based on pheromone updating to increase resolution.
3. Test cases on images with angular displacement, blurred text, etc. show that the method increases resolution successfully but can add some noise, though processing is faster than alternatives. Ant colony optimization

COMPOSITE TEXTURE SHAPE CLASSIFICATION BASED ON MORPHOLOGICAL SKELETON AND RE...
After several decades of research, the development of an effective feature extraction method for texture
classification is still an ongoing effort. Therefore , several techniques have been proposed to resolve such
problems. In this paper a novel composite texture classification method based on innovative pre-processing
techniques, skeletonization and Regional moments (RM) is proposed. This proposed texture classification
approach, takes into account the ambiguity brought in by noise and the different caption and digitization
processes. To offer better classification rate, innovative pre-processing methods are applied on various
texture images first. Pre-processing mechanisms describe various methods of converting a grey level image
into binary image with minimal consideration of the noise model. Then shape features are evaluated using
RM on the proposed Morphological Skeleton (MS) method by suitable numerical characterization
measures for a precise classification. This texture classification study using MS and RM has given a good
performance. Good classification result is achieved from a single region moment RM10 while others failed
in classification.
Texture Unit based Monocular Real-world Scene Classification using SOM and KN...
In this paper a method is proposed to discriminate
real world scenes in to natural and manmade scenes of similar
depth. Global-roughness of a scene image varies as a function
of image-depth. Increase in image depth leads to increase in
roughness in manmade scenes; on the contrary natural scenes
exhibit smooth behavior at higher image depth. This particular
arrangement of pixels in scene structure can be well explained
by local texture information in a pixel and its neighborhood.
Our proposed method analyses local texture information of a
scene image using texture unit matrix. For final classification
we have used both supervised and unsupervised learning using
K-Nearest Neighbor classifier (KNN) and Self Organizing
Map (SOM) respectively. This technique is useful for online
classification due to very less computational complexity.

Lecture 02 internet video search
System 1 and System 2 were basic early systems for image matching that used color and texture matching. Descriptor-based approaches like SIFT provided more invariance but not perfect invariance. Patch descriptors like SIFT were improved by making them more invariant to lighting changes like color and illumination shifts. The best performance came from combining descriptors with color invariance. Representing images as histograms of visual word occurrences captured patterns in local image patches and allowed measuring similarity between images. Large vocabularies of visual words provided more discriminative power but were costly to compute and store.

Iccv2011 learning spatiotemporal graphs of human activities
The document presents a new approach for learning spatiotemporal graphs of human activities from weakly supervised video data. The approach uses 2D+t tubes as mid-level features to represent activities as segmentation graphs, with nodes describing tubes and edges describing various relations. A probabilistic graph mixture model is used to model activities, and learning estimates the model parameters and permutation matrices using a structural EM algorithm. The learned models allow recognizing and segmenting activities in new videos through robust least squares inference. Evaluation on benchmark datasets demonstrates the ability to learn characteristic parts of activities and recognize them under weak supervision.

The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

Editor's Notes
- Different occlusions preserves ordering, deformations preserve ordering
- Different occlusions preserves ordering, deformations preserve ordering
- Edge weight larger at image edges
- Write down the contribution part of this paper
- Emphasise class model (shared) – all other variables per-image. Emphasise LEARN EVERYTHING SIMULTANEOUSLY.
