Tactile image computation using a feature extraction algorithm
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Summary
A binary tactile image feature extraction algorithm using image primitive notation and perceptrons is presented. The basic image segments are defined as geometric factors by which the image structure is described so that effective feature values such as image shape, image size, perimeter and texture may be extracted on the basis of local image computation. The local property of the tactile image computation is evaluated by the concept called order of the perceptrons and based on this feature extraction algorithm, an efficient tactile image recognition system is realised.
