Research Challenge
• Traditional way of determining a sculpture’s time-period and geographical area
still depending on subjective judgment which is tiring and time consuming.
• Experts manually extracts the features of the sculpture’s, then find the best
matches with the existing sculptures.
Image Features
• Literally Visual features are not different than image features.
• Features: part of information which describes an image, e.g. edges,
corners, circles, ellipses, blobs etc.
• These can be called a tiny patches which is invariant to image translation,
scaling, rotation, illumination differences, or other image parameters..
Local Feature Detection and Description
• Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT)
• Dense Scale Invariant Feature Transform (DSIFT)
• Speeded Up Robust Feature (SURF)
• Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF (ORB)
• BOW, HOG, RVM, CRF etc.
SIFT (D. Lowe, University of British Columbia,
2004)
1. Create a scale space of images
• Construct a set of progressively Gaussian blurred images
• Take differences to get Difference of Gaussian (DoG) pyramid
2. Find local extrema (maxima and minima) in this scale space. Choose
key-points from the extrema.
3. For each key-points, in 16×16 window, find Histogram of Gradient
(HoG) directions.
4. Create a feature vector out of these.
1. Create a scale space of images
2. Find local extrema
SIFT features
Feature Descriptors and Brute Force Matching
• Each of the features generates an array of numbers, called feature
descriptor.
• Brute Force Matching takes the first descriptor from the first image
and check with all the descriptors of the second image, returns best
result with Hamming Norm.
• We can choose user defined matching calculated from Hamming
Norm which is actually an array.
SIFT Based Feature Extraction and Matching for Archaeological Artifacts
Conclusion and Continue of Work
• SIFT features has high dimension in the feature space.
• Grouping descriptor to the set of clusters (vocabulary) with vector
quantization algorithm using K-means.
• Construction of a bag of features (BOF), which calculates the number
of features that are entered on each cluster.
• Classification (SVM), training bag of features as feature vectors, and
determine category of the image.
