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

Comparative Evaluation of Binary Features
TL;DR: This paper fills the gap of evaluation for the recent wave of binary feature descriptors, which aim to provide robustness while achieving high computational efficiency, and provides a novel taxonomy unifying both traditional and novel binary features.

TL;DR: Mobile phones have evolved into powerful image and video processing devices equipped with high-resolution cameras, color displays, and hardware-accelerated graphics, which enables a new class of applications that use the camera phone to initiate search queries about objects in visual proximity to the user.

Multi-scale patch and multi-modality atlases for whole heart segmentation of MRI
Xiahai Zhuang,Juan Shen +1 more
TL;DR: A whole heart segmentation method that employs multi-modality atlases from MRI and CT and adopts a new label fusion algorithm which is based on the proposed multi-scale patch (MSP) strategy and a new global atlas ranking scheme is presented for cardiac MRI.

Heterogeneous transfer learning for image classification
TL;DR: This paper proposes a heterogeneous transfer learning framework for knowledge transfer between text and images by enriching the representation of the target images with semantic concepts extracted from the auxiliary source data through a novel matrix factorization method.

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.
