Extracting Compact Objects Using Linked Pyramids

Abstract

Compact objects of arbitrary size are extracted from images using a combination of three-pyramid-based representations of image features. A gray-scale linked pyramid is used to smooth the image into uniform regions. A 'surroundedness' pyramid is used to identify regions of interest, and a linked edge pyramid is used to delimit the boundaries of the compact objects.
