A blind definition of shape

J. L. Lisani, J. M. Morel, L. Rudin (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this note, we propose a general definition of shape which is both compatible with the one proposed in phenomenology (gestaltism) and with a computer vision implementation. We reverse the usual order in Computer Vision. We do not define “shape recognition” as a task which requires a “model” pattern which is searched in all images of a certain kind. We give instead a “blind” definition of shapes relying only on invariance and repetition arguments. Given a set of images ℐ , we call shape of this...

A grid-computing based multi-camera tracking system for vehicle plate recognition

Zalili Binti Musa, Junzo Watada (2006)

Kybernetika

There are several ways that can be implemented in a vehicle tracking system such as recognizing a vehicle color, a shape or a vehicle plate itself. In this paper, we will concentrate ourselves on recognizing a vehicle on a highway through vehicle plate recognition. Generally, recognizing a vehicle plate for a toll-gate system or parking system is easier than recognizing a car plate for the highway system. There are many cameras installed on the highway to capture images and every camera has different...

A viscosity solution method for Shape-From-Shading without image boundary data

Emmanuel Prados, Fabio Camilli, Olivier Faugeras (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper we propose a solution of the Lambertian shape-from-shading (SFS) problem by designing a new mathematical framework based on the notion of viscosity solution. The power of our approach is twofolds: (1) it defines a notion of weak solutions (in the viscosity sense) which does not necessarily require boundary data. Moreover, it allows to characterize the viscosity solutions by their “minimums”; and (2) it unifies the works of [Rouy and Tourin, SIAM J. Numer. Anal.29 (1992) 867–884],...

Application of fuzzy techniques to the design of algorithms in computer vision.

Eduard Montseny, Pilar Sobrevilla (1998)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In this paper a method for the design of algorithms is presented which use fuzzy techniques in order to achieve a better vagueness treatment. A base of rules will be developed in order to design the algorithms. Data fuzzification problem is solved by using probability density functions and probability distribution functions, whereas data analysis is set out associating, to each one of the analysis rules, a fuzzy set which will be obtained by applying an aggregation function which will be defined...

Applying fuzzy logic in video surveillance systems.

José Manuel Molina, Jesús García, Oscar Pérez, Javier Carbó, Antonio Berlanga, José Ignacio Portillo (2005)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In this work, the application of fuzzy logic in surveillance systems based on cameras is analyzed. Three different fuzzy systems have been tested and compared with a crisp decision system. The first one has been developed using an expert knowledge, the second one was learned from recorded videos, and a third one is developed as a refinement taking into account evaluation with ground truth. In all cases, the core of the system is the association function, in which the developed fuzzy system takes...
