An Enhanced MSER Pruning Algorithm for Detection and Localization of Bangla Texts from Scene Images
2019
˜The œinternational Arab journal of information technology
Firstly, MSER regions are generated from the input color image by converting it into gray scale image. ...
The efficiency of text recognition depends on the efficiency of text localization. So, the main goal of the proposed method is to detect and localize text regions with high accuracy. ...
They also developed a powerful low-level detector called CE-MSER which extends the widely used MSER by enhancing intensity contrast between text pattern and background. ...

Beyond MSER: Maximally Stable Regions using Tree of Shapes
2015
Procedings of the British Machine Vision Conference 2015
This article explores the application of a tree-based feature extraction algorithm for the widely-used MSER features, and proposes a Tree of Shapes based detector of Maximally Stable Regions. ...
The proposed descriptor is compared to the standard MSER implementation as well as a tree-based MSER implementation, achieving competitive results in the matching setup and outperforming the baseline MSER ...

A Color-Based Interest Operator
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Our operator is closely related to the grayscale MSER but it works on the HSV color space, as opposed to the most popular operators in the literature, which are intensity based. ...
It combines a fine and a coarse overlapped quantization of the HSV color space to find maximally stable extremal regions on each of its components and combine them into a final set of regions that are ...
Also, the stability of the regions is fragile and very dependent on the input parameters. In this paper we present a color interest operator, called COLOR, based on the same principles as the MSER. ...

Visual landmark generation and redetection with a single feature per frame
2010
2010 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation
The approach is based on the assumption that highly discriminative regions are easily redetectable in subsequent frames as well as in frames visited from different viewpoints. ...
We show that we can represent a large environment with a few salient landmarks and that a large percentage of these landmarks is robustly redetectable from different viewpoints. ...
Visual localization and navigation is often based on landmarks, that means on objects or regions in the environment that serve as reference points for the robot. ...

Localization accuracy of region detectors
2008
2008 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
In contrast to existing methods that are based on the descriptor distance of region correspondences, the new measure is pre-computed on each image individually. ...
Also, it is shown that localization accuracy linearly depends on region scale for some detectors, which may thus be used as a pre-selection criterion for the removal of error-prone regions. ...
Introduction In this work, five popular region detectors are compared with regard to localization accuracy in position and region shape: the edge-based (EBR) and intensity-based (IBR) region detectors ...

Machine Vision based Traffic Sign Detection Methods: Review, Analyses and Perspectives
2019
IEEE Access
In recent years, there have been a large number of TSD algorithms based on machine vision and pattern recognition. In this paper, a comprehensive review of the literature on TSD is presented. ...
We divide the reviewed detection methods into five main categories: color-based methods, shape-based methods, color-and shape-based methods, machine-learning-based methods, and LIDAR-based methods. ...
Hence, the color enhancement methods and suitable parameters of MSERs are very important for these methods.
