  1. Motion illusion, rotating snakes

  2. Local features: main components • Detection:Find a set of distinctive key points. • Description: Extract feature descriptor around each interest point as vector. • Matching: Compute distance between feature vectors to find correspondence. K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  3. Review: Harris corner detector • Approximate distinctiveness by local auto-correlation. • Approximate local auto-correlation by second moment matrix M. • Distinctiveness (or cornerness) relates to the eigenvalues of M. • Instead of computing eigenvaluesdirectly, we can use determinant and trace of M. • E(u, v) • (max)-1/2 • (min)-1/2 James Hays

  4. Trace / determinant and eigenvalues • Given n x n matrix A with eigenvalues λ1…n • R = λ1λ2 – α(λ1+λ2)2 = det(M) – αtrace(M)2

  5. How invariant are harris corners?

  6. Affine intensity change • Intensity scaling:I  aI • R • R • Threshold • x(image coordinate) • x(image coordinate) • I  aI + b • Only derivatives are used => invariance to intensity shiftI I+b • Partially invariant to affine intensity change James Hays

  7. Image translation • Derivatives and window function are shift-invariant. • Corner location is covariant w.r.t. translation James Hays

  8. Image rotation • Second moment ellipse rotates but its shape (i.e., eigenvalues) remains the same. • Corner location is covariant w.r.t. rotation James Hays

  9. Scaling • Corner • All points will be classified as edges • Corner location is not covariant to scaling! James Hays

  10. What is the ‘scale’ of a feature point?

  11. Automatic Scale Selection How to find patch sizes at which f response is equal? What is a good f ? K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  18. What Is A Useful Signature Function f ? 1st Derivative of Gaussian (Laplacian of Gaussian) Earl F. Glynn

  19. What Is A Useful Signature Function f ? • “Blob” detector is common for corners • - Laplacian (2nd derivative) of Gaussian (LoG) Scale space Function response Image blob size K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  20. Find local maxima in position-scale space s5 Find maxima s4 s3  List of(x, y, s) s2 s K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  21. Alternative approach Approximate LoG with Difference-of-Gaussian (DoG). Ruye Wang

  22. Alternative approach Approximate LoG with Difference-of-Gaussian (DoG). 1. Blur image with σ Gaussian kernel 2. Blur image with kσ Gaussian kernel 3. Subtract 2. from 1. = - K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  23. Find local maxima in position-scale space of DoG Find maxima … … ks 2ks - = s  List of(x, y, s) - = ks - = s K. Grauman, B. Leibe Input image

  24. Results: Difference-of-Gaussian • Larger circles = larger scale • Descriptors with maximal scale response K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  25. Maximally Stable Extremal Regions [Matas ‘02] • Based on Watershed segmentation algorithm • Select regions that stay stable over a large parameter range K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  26. Example Results: MSER K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  27. Review: Interest points • Keypoint detection: repeatable and distinctive • Corners, blobs, stable regions • Harris, DoG, MSER

  28. Review: Choosing an interest point detector • Why choose? • Collect more points with more detectors, for more possible matches • What do you want it for? • Precise localization in x-y: Harris • Good localization in scale: Difference of Gaussian • Flexible region shape: MSER • Best choice often application dependent • Harris-/Hessian-Laplace/DoG work well for many natural categories • MSER works well for buildings and printed things • There have been extensive evaluations/comparisons • [Mikolajczyk et al., IJCV’05, PAMI’05] • All detectors/descriptors shown here work well

  29. Comparison of Keypoint Detectors TuytelaarsMikolajczyk 2008

  30. Local Image Descriptors Read Szeliski 4.1 Acknowledgment: Many slides from James Hays, Derek Hoiem and Grauman & Leibe 2008 AAAI Tutorial

  31. Local features: main components • Detection:Find a set of distinctive key points. • Description: Extract feature descriptor around each interest point as vector. • Matching: Compute distance between feature vectors to find correspondence. K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  32. Image Representations: Histograms Global histogram to represent distribution of features • Color, texture, depth, … Local histogram per detected point Space Shuttle Cargo Bay Images from Dave Kauchak

  33. For what things do we compute histograms? • Color • Model local appearance L*a*b* color space HSV color space James Hays

  34. For what things do we compute histograms? • Texture • Local histograms of oriented gradients • SIFT: Scale Invariant Feature Transform • Extremely popular (40k citations) SIFT – Lowe IJCV 2004 James Hays

  35. SIFT • Find Difference of Gaussian scale-space extrema • Post-processing • Position interpolation • Discard low-contrast points • Eliminate points along edges

  36. SIFT • Find Difference of Gaussian scale-space extrema • Post-processing • Position interpolation • Discard low-contrast points • Eliminate points along edges • Orientation estimation

  37. SIFT Orientation Normalization p 2 0 • Compute orientation histogram • Select dominant orientation ϴ • Normalize: rotate to fixed orientation p 2 0 T. Tuytelaars, B. Leibe [Lowe, SIFT, 1999]

  38. SIFT • Find Difference of Gaussian scale-space extrema • Post-processing • Position interpolation • Discard low-contrast points • Eliminate points along edges • Orientation estimation • Descriptor extraction • Motivation: We want some sensitivity to spatial layout, but not too much, so blocks of histograms give us that.

  39. SIFT Descriptor Extraction • Given a keypoint with scale and orientation: • Pick scale-space image which most closely matches estimated scale • Resample image to match orientation OR • Subtract detector orientation from vector to give invariance to general image rotation.

  40. SIFT Orientation Normalization p 2 0 • Compute orientation histogram • Select dominant orientation ϴ • Normalize: rotate to fixed orientation p 2 0 T. Tuytelaars, B. Leibe [Lowe, SIFT, 1999]

  41. SIFT Descriptor Extraction • Given a keypoint with scale and orientation Gradient magnitude and orientation 8 bin ‘histogram’ - add magnitude amounts! Utkarsh Sinha

  42. SIFT Descriptor Extraction • Within each 4x4 window Gradient magnitude and orientation 8 bin ‘histogram’ - add magnitude amounts! Weight magnitude that is added to ‘histogram’ by Gaussian Utkarsh Sinha

  43. SIFT Descriptor Extraction • Extract 8 x 16 values into 128-dim vector • Illumination invariance: • Working in gradient space, so robust to I = I + b • Normalize vector to [0…1] • Robust to I = αI brightness changes • Clamp all vector values > 0.2 to 0.2. • Robust to “non-linear illumination effects” • Image value saturation / specular highlights • Renormalize

  44. Specular highlights move between image pairs!

  45. SIFT-like descriptor in Project 2 • SIFT is hand designed based on intuition • You implement your own SIFT-like descriptor • Ignore scale/orientation to start. • Parameters: stick with defaults + minor tweaks • Feel free to look at papers / resources for inspiration 2017 Spring TA Martin Zhu recommends this tutorial: http://aishack.in/tutorials/sift-scale-invariant-feature-transform-features/ Lowe’s original paper: http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~lowe/papers/ijcv04.pdf

  46. Efficient Implementation • Filter using oriented kernels based on directions of histogram bins. • Called ‘steerable filters’

  47. Local Descriptors: SURF • Fast approximation of SIFT idea • Efficient computation by 2D box filters & integral images 6 times faster than SIFT • Equivalent quality for object identification • GPU implementation available • Feature extraction @ 200Hz(detector + descriptor, 640×480 img) • http://www.vision.ee.ethz.ch/~surf [Bay, ECCV’06], [Cornelis, CVGPU’08] K. Grauman, B. Leibe

  48. Local Descriptors: Shape Context Count the number of points inside each bin, e.g.: Count = 4 ... Count = 10 Log-polar binning: More precision for nearby points, more flexibility for farther points. Belongie & Malik, ICCV 2001 K. Grauman, B. Leibe
