Orientation (computer Vision) - Estimation of Local Image Orientation

Estimation of Local Image Orientation

A number of methods have been proposed for computing or estimating an orientation representation from image data. These include

  • Quadrature filter based methods
  • The structure tensor
  • Using a local polynomial approximation
  • The Energy tensor
  • The Boundary tensor

The first approach can be used both for the double angle representation (only 2D images) and the tensor representation, and the other methods compute a tensor representation of local orientation.

Famous quotes containing the words estimation, local, image and/or orientation:

    No man ever stood lower in my estimation for having a patch in his clothes; yet I am sure that there is greater anxiety, commonly, to have fashionable, or at least clean and unpatched clothes, than to have a sound conscience.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Back now to autumn, leaving the ended husk
    Of summer that brought them here for Show Saturday
    The men with hunters, dog-breeding wool-defined women,
    Children all saddle-swank, mugfaced middleaged wives
    Glaring at jellies, husbands on leave from the garden
    Watchful as weasels, car-tuning curt-haired sons
    Back now, all of them, to their local lives....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The “paper tiger” hero, James Bond, offering the whites a triumphant image of themselves, is saying what many whites want desperately to hear reaffirmed: I am still the White Man, lord of the land, licensed to kill, and the world is still an empire at my feet.
    Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)

    Institutions of higher education in the United States are products of Western society in which masculine values like an orientation toward achievement and objectivity are valued over cooperation, connectedness and subjectivity.
    Yolanda Moses (b. 1946)
