Traffic sign recognition is a rather challenging task for intelligent transportation systems since signs in different subsets, e.g., speed limit signs, prohibition signs, and mandatory signs, are very different from each other in color or shape, whereas they share some similarities to the ones in the same subset. Therefore, it is important to integrate different modalities of visual features, such...
In this paper, we present, first, a new method for color feature extraction based on SURF detectors. Then, we proved its efficiency for flower image classification. Therefore, we described visual content of the flower images using compact and accurate descriptors. These features are combined and the learning process is performed using a multiple kernel framework with a SVM classifier. The proposed...
Bag-of-words-based image classification approaches mostly rely on low level local shape features. However, it has been shown that combining multiple cues such as color, texture, or shape is a challenging and promising task which can improve the classification accuracy. Most of the state-of-the-art feature fusion methods usually aim to weight the cues without considering their statistical dependence...
We introduce an algorithm for object discovery from RGB-D (color plus depth) data, building on recent progress in using RGB-D cameras for 3-D reconstruction. A set of 3-D maps are built from multiple visits to the same scene. We introduce a multi-scene MRF model to detect objects that moved between visits, combining shape, visibility, and color cues. We measure similarities between candidate objects...
This paper investigates segmentation-based image descriptors for object category recognition. In contrast to commonly used interest points the proposed descriptors are extracted from pairs of adjacent regions given by a segmentation method. In this way we exploit semi-local structural information from the image. We propose to use the segments as spatial bins for descriptors of various image statistics...
Image category recognition is important to access visual information on the level of objects and scene types. This paper presents a new algorithm for the automatic recognition of object and scene classes. Compact and yet discriminative visual-words and low-level-features object class subspaces are automatically learned from a set of training images by a Supervised Nonlinear Neighborhood Embedding...
