Abstract

This article presents a system for texture-based probabilistic classification and localisation of 3D objects in 2D digital images and discusses selected applications. The objects are described by local feature vectors computed using the wavelet transform. In the training phase, object features are statistically modelled as normal density functions. In the recognition phase, a maximisation algorithm compares the learned density functions with the feature vectors extracted from a real scene and yields the classes and poses of objects found in it. Experiments carried out on a real dataset of over 40000 images demonstrate the robustness of the system in terms of classification and localisation accuracy. Finally, two important application scenarios are discussed, namely classification of museum artefacts and classification of metallography images.
