Harris affine region detectorIn the fields of computer vision and , the Harris affine region detector belongs to the category of feature detection. Feature detection is a preprocessing step of several algorithms that rely on identifying characteristic points or interest points so to make correspondences between images, recognize textures, categorize objects or build panoramas. The Harris affine detector can identify similar regions between images that are related through affine transformations and have different illuminations.
Determining the number of clusters in a data setDetermining the number of clusters in a data set, a quantity often labelled k as in the k-means algorithm, is a frequent problem in data clustering, and is a distinct issue from the process of actually solving the clustering problem. For a certain class of clustering algorithms (in particular k-means, k-medoids and expectation–maximization algorithm), there is a parameter commonly referred to as k that specifies the number of clusters to detect.
Hessian affine region detectorThe Hessian affine region detector is a feature detector used in the fields of computer vision and . Like other feature detectors, the Hessian affine detector is typically used as a preprocessing step to algorithms that rely on identifiable, characteristic interest points. The Hessian affine detector is part of the subclass of feature detectors known as affine-invariant detectors: Harris affine region detector, Hessian affine regions, maximally stable extremal regions, Kadir–Brady saliency detector, edge-based regions (EBR) and intensity-extrema-based (IBR) regions.
Couplage (théorie des graphes)En théorie des graphes, un couplage ou appariement (en anglais matching) d'un graphe est un ensemble d'arêtes de ce graphe qui n'ont pas de sommets en commun. Soit un graphe simple non orienté G = (S, A) (où S est l'ensemble des sommets et A l'ensemble des arêtes, qui sont certaines paires de sommets), un couplage M est un ensemble d'arêtes deux à deux non adjacentes. C'est-à-dire que M est une partie de l'ensemble A des arêtes telle que Un couplage maximum est un couplage contenant le plus grand nombre possible d'arêtes.
