Title
Local contour descriptors around scale-invariant keypoints
Abstract
Describing local patches to register image keypoints is an important task for building a huge database from video frames. When searching for an efficient descriptor, task is twofold: features must describe the featuring patches at a high efficiency, while the dimensionality should be kept at a manageable low value. The main assumption in finding local descriptors is the defect of continuity in the discrete neighborhood or the imperfectness of local shape formats. Curve fitting methods for noisy shapes are called: active contours are generated around keypoints. Local contours are characterized by a small number of Fourier descriptors, resulting a new feature set of low dimensionality. Similarity among different images are searched through these descriptors. The method was tested on 22 real-life video frames made by an outdoor surveillance camera of a city police central.
