@ARTICLE{Strumiłło_Paweł_Depth-based_2018, author={Strumiłło, Paweł and Matusiak, Karol and Skulimowski, Piotr}, volume={vol. 64}, number={No 3}, journal={International Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications}, howpublished={online}, year={2018}, publisher={Polish Academy of Sciences Committee of Electronics and Telecommunications}, abstract={Keypoint detection is a basic step in many computer vision algorithms aimed at recognition of objects, automatic navigation and analysis of biomedical images. Successful implementation of higher level image analysis tasks, however, is conditioned by reliable detection of characteristic image local regions termed keypoints. A large number of keypoint detection algorithms has been proposed and verified. In this paper we discuss the most important keypoint detection algorithms. The main part of this work is devoted to description of a keypoint detection algorithm we propose that incorporates depth information computed from stereovision cameras or other depth sensing devices. It is shown that filtering out keypoints that are context dependent, e.g. located at boundaries of objects can improve the matching performance of the keypoints which is the basis for object recognition tasks. This improvement is shown quantitatively by comparing the proposed algorithm to the widely accepted SIFT keypoint detector algorithm. Our study is motivated by a development of a system aimed at aiding the visually impaired in space perception and object identification.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Depth-based Descriptor for Matching Keypoints in 3D Scenes}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/107737/PDF/41_1451.pdf}, doi={10.24425/123522}, keywords={feature matching, key points detection, object recognition, depth map}, }
