Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints
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

Discriminative spatial saliency for image classification
TL;DR: This work proposes to learn the discriminative spatial saliency of images while simultaneously learning a max margin classifier for a given visual classification task, and treats the saliency maps as latent variables and allow them to adapt to the image content to maximize the classification score, while regularizing the change in thesaliency maps.

Multiple Kernel Learning for Visual Object Recognition: A Review
TL;DR: It is argued that given a sufficient number of training examples and feature/kernel types, MKL is more effective for object recognition than simple kernel combination, and among the various approaches proposed for MKL, the sequential minimal optimization, semi-infinite programming, and level method based ones are computationally most efficient.

Auto-Weighted Multi-View Learning for Image Clustering and Semi-Supervised Classification.
TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel multi-view learning model which performs clustering/semi-supervised classification and local structure learning simultaneously and can allocate ideal weight for each view automatically without explicit weight definition and penalty parameters.

A Partial Intensity Invariant Feature Descriptor for Multimodal Retinal Image Registration
TL;DR: The proposed novel highly distinctive local feature descriptor named partial intensity invariant feature descriptor (PIIFD) is so distinctive that it can be correctly identified even in nonvascular areas and far outperforms existing algorithms in terms of robustness, accuracy, and computational efficiency.

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.
