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.

Active learning with multi-label SVM classification

TL;DR: This paper first proposes two novel multi-label active learning strategies, a max-margin prediction uncertainty strategy and a label cardinality inconsistency strategy, and then integrates them into an adaptive framework of multi- label active learning.

On SIFTs and their scales

TL;DR: This paper turns to the overwhelming majority of pixels, those where stable scales are not found by standard techniques, and shows that representing each pixel as a set of SIFTs, extracted at multiple scales, allows for far better matches than single-scale descriptors, but at a computational price.

Local Directional Ternary Pattern for Facial Expression Recognition

TL;DR: This paper presents a new face descriptor, local directional ternary pattern (LDTP), for facial expression recognition that uses a two-level grid to construct the face descriptor while sampling expression-related information at different scales and shows that the approaches improve the overall accuracy of facialexpression recognition on six data sets.

Action recognition with exemplar based 2.5d graph matching

TL;DR: A novel, 2.5D representation of action images that considers both view-independent pose information and rich appearance information is proposed, which makes the approach robust to pose variations and occlusions.

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

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.
