This paper presents a new algorithm for surface segmentation and feature description. The algorithm extracts the signature of an edge image based on the signature technqique[12] in the first stage. If there exists a range in the angle axis where more than two signatures form a closed curve, we can conclude there is a surface inside the range. Using this feature of the signature, surfaces can be segmented. The surface features such as number of vertices, number of edges, and type of surfaces can also be extracted by finding the signatures of individual surfaces. This algorithm has distinguished advantages: it can easily recover the lost part occuring in the edge iage using the curve fitting method and it can extract surface features even when surfaces are rotated in 3-D space.

There are two methods to get 3-dimensional information by matching image pair feature-based matching and area-based matching. One of the problems in the area-based matching is how the optimal search region which gives accurate correlation between given point and its neighbors can be selected. In this paper, we proposed a new area-based matching algorithm which uses edge-features used in the conventional feature-based matching. It first selects matching candidates by feature-based and matches image pair with area-based method by taking these candidates as guidance to decision of search area. The results show that running time is reduced by optimizing search area(considering edge points and continuity of disparity), keeping on the precision as the conventional area-based matching method.

Image retrieval system should be construct for searching fast, efficient image be extract the accurate feature information of image with more massive and more complex characteristics. Image retrieval system are essential differences between image databases and traditional databases. These differences lead to interesting new issues in searching of image, data modeling. So, cause us to consider new generation method of database, efficient retrieval method of image. In this paper, To extract feature information of edge using in searching from input image, we was performed to extract the edge by convolution Laplacian mask and input image, and we implemented the annotation-based and content-based image retrieval system for searching fast, efficient image by generation image database from extracting feature information of edge and metadata. We can improve the performance of the image contents retrieval, because the annotation-based and content-based image retrieval system is using image index which is made up of the content-based edge feature extract information represented in the low level of image and annotation-based edge feature information represented in the high level of image. As a conclusion, image retrieval system proposed in this paper is possible the accurate management of the accumulated information for the image contents and the information sharing and reuse of image because the proposed method do construct the image database by metadata.

Since 3D measurement technologies have been widely used in manufacturing industries edge detection in a depth image plays an important role in computer vision applications. In this paper, we have proposed an edge detection process in a depth image based on the image based smoothing and morphological operations. In this method we have used the principle of Median filtering, which has a renowned feature for edge preservation properties. The edge detection was done based on Canny Edge detection principle and was improvised with morphological operations, which are represented as combinations of erosion and dilation. Later, we compared our results with some existing methods and exhibited that this method produced better results. However, this method works in multiframe applications with effective framerates. Thus this technique will aid to detect edges robustly from depth images and contribute to promote applications in depth images such as object detection, object segmentation, etc.

In this paper the method was proposed which uses ${\lambda}$-fuzzy measure to detect the edge of the features of the face region. In the conventional method the features was founded using valley, brightness and edge. This method had its drawbacks that it is so sensitive to the external noises and environments. This paper proposed ${\lambda}$-fuzzy measure to cope with this drawbacks. By considering each weight of the pixels the integral evaluation was considered using the center of area method. Thus the continuity of the edge was kept by way of the neighborhood information and the reduction of time complexity wad resulted in.

In this paper, we present a new method that combines the characteristics of edge in-formation and second-order neural networks for the classification of structural textures. The edges of a texture are extracted using an edge detection approach. From this edge information, classification features called second-order features are obtained. These features are fed into a second-order neural network for training and subsequent classification. It will be shown that the main disadvantage of using structural methods in texture classifications, namely, the difficulty of the extraction of texels, is overcome by the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose the dynamic scene segmentation algorithm using a cross mask and edge information. This method, a combination of the conventioanl feature-based and pixel-based approaches, uses edges as features and determines moving pixels, with a cross mask centered on each edge pixel, by computing similarity measure between two consecutive image frames. With simple calcualtion the proposed method works well for image consisting of complex background or several moving objects. Also this method works satisfactorily in case of rotaitional motion.

In this paper, we propose a technique for extracting attentive objects in images using feature maps, regardless of the complexity of images and the position of objects. The proposed method uses feature maps with edge and color information in order to extract attentive objects. We also propose a reference map which is created by integrating feature maps. In order to create a reference map, feature maps which represent visually attentive regions in images are constructed. Three feature maps including edge map, CbCr map and H map are utilized. These maps contain the information about boundary regions by the difference of intensity or colors. Then the combination map which represents the meaningful boundary is created by integrating the reference map and feature maps. Since the combination map simply represents the boundary of objects we extract the candidate object regions including meaningful boundaries from the combination map. In order to extract candidate object regions, we use the convex hull algorithm. By applying a segmentation algorithm to the area of candidate regions to separate object regions and background regions, real object regions are extracted from the candidate object regions. Experiment results show that the proposed method extracts the attentive regions and attentive objects efficiently, with 84.3% Precision rate and 81.3% recall rate.
