TLDR
The Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (or SIFT) algorithm is a highly robust method to extract and consequently match distinctive invariant features from images that can then be used to reliably match objects in diering images.Abstract:
The Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (or SIFT) algorithm is a highly robust method to extract and consequently match distinctive invariant features from images. These features can then be used to reliably match objects in diering images. The algorithm was rst proposed by Lowe [12] and further developed to increase performance resulting in the classic paper [13] that served as foundation for SIFT which has played an important role in robotic and machine vision in the past decade.read more

Automated Chest X-Ray Screening: Can Lung Region Symmetry Help Detect Pulmonary Abnormalities?
K. C. Santosh,Sameer Antani +1 more
TL;DR: The proposed method outperforms the previously reported methods by more than 5% in ACC and 3% in AUC, and analyzes the lung region symmetry using multi-scale shape features, and edge plus texture features.

TL;DR: In the proposed hardware architecture, three recognition tasks (visual perception, descriptor generation, and object decision) are directly mapped to the neural perception engine, 16 SIMD processors including 128 processing elements, and decision processor and executed in the pipeline to maximize throughput of the object recognition.

Modeling the spatial layout of images beyond spatial pyramids
TL;DR: This work proposes two complementary approaches to account for the spatial layout in an image-independent manner (as is the case of the SP) while the second one adapts to the image content which does not incur an increase of the image signature dimensionality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Object Recognition by Sequential Figure-Ground Ranking
TL;DR: This work presents an approach to visual object-class segmentation and recognition based on a pipeline that combines multiple figure-ground hypotheses with large object spatial support, generated by bottom-up computational processes that do not exploit knowledge of specific categories, and sequential categorization based on continuous estimates of the spatial overlap between the image segment hypotheses and each putative class.

Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints
TL;DR: This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.

A Combined Corner and Edge Detector
Chris Harris,Mike Stephens +1 more
TL;DR: The problem the authors are addressing in Alvey Project MMI149 is that of using computer vision to understand the unconstrained 3D world, in which the viewed scenes will in general contain too wide a diversity of objects for topdown recognition techniques to work.

A performance evaluation of local descriptors
TL;DR: It is observed that the ranking of the descriptors is mostly independent of the interest region detector and that the SIFT-based descriptors perform best and Moments and steerable filters show the best performance among the low dimensional descriptors.

Robust wide-baseline stereo from maximally stable extremal regions
TL;DR: The high utility of MSERs, multiple measurement regions and the robust metric is demonstrated in wide-baseline experiments on image pairs from both indoor and outdoor scenes.
