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

HSF-Net: Multiscale Deep Feature Embedding for Ship Detection in Optical Remote Sensing Imagery
TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel deep feature-based method to detect ships in very high-resolution optical remote sensing images by using a regional proposal network to generate ship candidates from feature maps produced by a deep convolutional neural network.

Learning to re-rank: query-dependent image re-ranking using click data
Vidit Jain,Manik Varma +1 more
TL;DR: This paper hypothesize that images clicked in response to a query are mostly relevant to the query, and re-rank the original search results so as to promote images that are likely to be clicked to the top of the ranked list.

Visual 3-D SLAM from UAVs
Jorge Artieda,José M. Sebastián,Pascual Campoy,Juan F. Correa,Iván F. Mondragón,Carol Martinez,Miguel Olivares +6 more
TL;DR: The results that have been obtained for localization, tested against the GPS information of the flights, show that Visual SLAM delivers reliable localization and mapping that makes it suitable for some outdoors applications when flying UAVs.

Real-time Action Recognition by Spatiotemporal Semantic and Structural Forests
TL;DR: This method is able to recognise actions continuously in real-time while achieving comparably high accuracy over state-of-the-arts while introducing the pyramidal spatiotemporal relationship match (PSRM) to encapsulate both local appearance and structural information efficiently.

Towards Privacy-Preserving Content-Based Image Retrieval in Cloud Computing
TL;DR: The proposed scheme transforms the EMD problem in such a way that the cloud server can solve it without learning the sensitive information, and local sensitive hash (LSH) is utilized to improve the search 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.
