A Distance Measure and a Feature Likelihood Map Concept for Scale-Invariant Model Matching
This paper presents two approaches for evaluating multi-scale feature-based object models. Within the first approach, a scale-invariant distance measure is proposed for comparing two image representations in t...

An automatic assessment scheme for steel quality inspection
This paper presents an automatic system for steel quality assessment, by measuring textural properties of carbide distributions. In current steel inspection, specially etched and polished steel specimen surfa...

Feature Detection with Automatic Scale Selection
The fact that objects in the world appear in different ways depending on the scale of observation has important implications if one aims at describing them. It shows that the notion of scale is of utmost impor...

Edge Detection and Ridge Detection with Automatic Scale Selection
When computing descriptors of image data, the type of information that can be extracted may be strongly dependent on the scales at which the image operators are applied. This article presents a systematic meth...

Direct computation of shape cues using scale-adapted spatial derivative operators
This paper addresses the problem of computing cues to the three-dimensional structure of surfaces in the world directly from the local structure of the brightness pattern of either a single monocular image or ...

Detecting salient blob-like image structures and their scales with a scale-space primal sketch: A method for focus-of-attention
This article presents: (i) a multiscale representation of grey-level shape called the scale-space primal sketch, which makes explicit both features in scale-space and the relations between structures at differ...

Analysis of aerosol images using the scale-space primal sketch
We outline a method to analyze aerosol images using the scale-space representation. The pictures, which are photographs of an aerosol generated by a fuel injector, contain phenomena that by a human observer ar...
