Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this paper, we propose an object categorization framework to extract different visual cues and tackle the problem of categorizing previously unseen objects under various viewpoints. Specifically, we decompose the input image into three visual cues: structure, texture and shape cues. Then, local features are extracted using the log-polar transform to achieve scale and rotation invariance. The local descriptors obtained from different visual cues are fused using the bag-of-words representation with some key contributions: (1) a keypoint detection scheme based on variational calculus is proposed for selecting sampling locations; (2) a codebook optimization scheme based on discrete entropy is proposed to choose the optimal codewords and at the same time increase the overall performance. We tested the proposed object classification framework on the ETH-80 dataset using the leave-one-object-out protocol to specifically tackle the problem of categorizing previously unseen objects under various viewpoints. On this popular dataset, the proposed object categorization system obtained a very high improvement in classification performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.
