We address the problem of retrieving the silhouettes of objects from a database of shapes with a translation and rotation invariant feature extractor. We retrieve silhouettes by using a “soft” classification based on the Euclidean distance. Experiments show significant gains in retrieval accuracy over the existing literature. This work extends the use of our previously employed feature extractor and...
High precision identification of feature points is an important technology and one of the bases of computer vision, image analysis and image processing. In the practical applications, the feature points can not be identified easily in various conditions of light illumination, visual angle, texture, and perspective projection. And in many cases, the size of feature point is small, the context is uncertain...
While visual texture classification is a widely-research topic in image analysis, little is known on its counterpart i.e. the haptic (touch) texture. This paper examines the visual texture classification in order to investigate how well it could be used for haptic texture search engine. In classifying the visual textures, feature extraction for a given image involving wavelet decomposition is used...
Time-frequency representations of audio signals often resemble texture images. This paper derives a simple audio classification algorithm based on treating sound spectrograms as texture images. The algorithm is inspired by an earlier visual classification scheme particularly efficient at classifying textures. While solely based on time-frequency texture features, the algorithm achieves surprisingly...
We investigate a biologically motivated approach to fast visual classification, directly inspired by the recent work [13]. Specifically, trading-off biological accuracy for computational efficiency, we explore using standard wavelet transforms and patch transforms to parallel the tuning of visual cortex V1 and V4 cells, alternated with max operations to achieve scale and translation invariance. A...
