Abstract
This chapter reviews methods of measuring properties of pictures, and extracting objects from pictures, for purposes of picture recognition and description. Subjects covered include
-
1)
Properties of regions in pictures—in particular, textural properties.
-
2)
Object and picture representation—boundaries, skeletons, relational structures.
-
3)
Detection of objects in pictures—template matching, edge detection.
-
4)
Properties of detected objects—projections, cross-sections, moments.
-
5)
Object extraction—thresholding, region growing, tracking.
-
6)
Properties of extracted objects—connectedness and counting, area and perimeter, compactness, convexity, elongatedness.
