The computer vision task of finding and identifying objects in an image or video sequence

The computer vision task of finding and identifying objects in an image or video sequence is often conducted consistent with one of two approaches:

  • Appearance-based methods

    • Use example images (called templates or exemplars) of the objects to perform recognition

    • Objects look different under varying conditions:

  • Feature-based method

    • a search is used to find feasible matches between object features and image features.

    • the primary constraint is that a single position of the object must account for all of the feasible matches.

Logo detection/recognition in natural images

Given a logo image as a reference image, how to detect/recognize it in a cluttered natural image? The logo may be quite small in the image, it can appear in clothes, hats, shoes, background wall etc. I have tried SIFT feature for matching without…

Image classification: recognizing various features of many buildings from images

So, let's say I have the longitude/latitude or address of many buildings I can get satellite images, "street view", and perhaps 3d/perspective views of buildings. I want to find the: height, number of floors, floor area (max building footprint) of…

Big differences in image filtered with rotated Gabor kernels

I have calculated 8 Gabor filters with Theta rotation m*PI/8. Parameters of the Gabor kernel given as input to OpenCv cv2.getGaborKernel: ksize = 11, theta = m*PI/8 lambd = 16/3 sigma = (5.09030 * 8.0) / (3.0 * PI) gamma = 0.5890 psi =…

Detecting windows in openCV

I am trying to detect windows (real-life-house-windows). Using corner detection is not always enough. So I am trying to figure out a pattern to recognize windows.. I thought that also detecting the light difference (sun coming from the window) may…
