Resumen

High dynamic range (HDR) illumination estimation from a single low dynamic range (LDR) image is a significant task in computer vision, graphics, and augmented reality. We present a two-stage deep learning-based method to predict an HDR environment map from a single narrow field-of-view LDR image. We first learn a hybrid parametric representation that sufficiently covers high- and low-frequency illumination components in the environment. Taking the estimated illuminations as guidance, we build a generative adversarial network to synthesize an HDR environment map that enables realistic rendering effects. We specifically consider the rendering effect by supervising the networks using rendering losses in both stages, on the predicted environment map as well as the hybrid illumination representation. Quantitative and qualitative experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves lower relighting errors for virtual object insertion and is preferred by users compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Resumen

A novel hierarchical stereo matching algorithm is presented which gives disparity map as output from illumination variant stereo pair. Illumination difference between two stereo images can lead to undesirable output. Stereo image pair often experience illumination variations due to many factors like real and practical situation, spatially and temporally separated camera positions, environmental illumination fluctuation, and the change in the strength or position of the light sources. Window matching and dynamic programming techniques are employed for disparity map estimation. Good quality disparity map is obtained with the optimized path. Homomorphic filtering is used as a preprocessing step to lessen illumination variation between the stereo images. Anisotropic diffusion is used to refine disparity map to give high quality disparity map as a final output. The robust performance of the proposed approach is suitable for real life circumstances where there will be always illumination variation between the images. The matching is carried out in a sequence of images representing the same scene, however in different resolutions. The hierarchical approach adopted decreases the computation time of the stereo matching problem. This algorithm can be helpful in applications like robot navigation, extraction of information from aerial surveys, 3D scene reconstruction, and military and security applications. Similarity measure SAD is often sensitive to illumination variation. It produces unacceptable disparity map results for illumination variant left and right images. Experimental results show that our proposed algorithm produces quality disparity maps for both wide range of illumination variant and invariant stereo image pair.

Resumen

Adequate nighttime lighting of city streets is necessary for safe vehicle and pedestrian movement, deterrent of crime, improvement of the citizens’ perceptions of safety, and so on. However, monitoring and mapping of illumination levels in city streets during the nighttime is a tedious activity that is usually based on manual inspection reports. The advancement in smartphone technology comes up with a better way to monitor city illumination using a rich set of smartphone-equipped inexpensive but powerful sensors (e.g., light sensor, GPS, etc). In this context, the main objective of this work is to use the power of smartphone sensors and IoT-cloud-based framework to collect, store, and analyze nighttime illumination data from citizens to generate high granular city illumination map. The development of high granular illumination map is an effective way of visualizing and assessing the illumination of city streets during nighttime. In this article, an illumination mapping algorithm called Street Illumination Mapping is proposed that works on participatory sensing-based illumination data collected using smartphones as IoT devices to generate city illumination map. The proposed method is evaluated on a real-world illumination dataset collected by participants in two different urban areas of city Kolkata. The results are also compared with the baseline mapping techniques, namely, Spatial k-Nearest Neighbors, Inverse Distance Weighting, Random Forest Regressor, Support Vector Regressor, and Artificial Neural Network.

Resumen

In order to solve the image blurring and distortion problem caused by underwater non-uniform and low illumination, this paper proposes an underwater image enhancement algorithm based on the Retinex theory and the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM). Firstly, the L component of the original image in the Lab space is extracted as the initial illumination map, and an Augmented Lagrange Multiplier (ALM) framework is constructed based on the ADMM to optimize the initial illumination map in order to obtain an accurate illumination image. In addition, the illumination map is further corrected in the luminance region with the Gamma Correction. Secondly, combined with the color constancy characteristics in the Retinex theory, the reflected image of the object is obtained. Finally, the bilateral filter is picked to suppress the underwater noise and obtain a more detailed enhanced image. The experimental results show that the underwater image enhancement algorithm can effectively solve the non-uniform illumination problem caused by natural light or artificial light source and improve the underwater image quality, thus having a better performance than other algorithms.

Resumen

In this paper, a novel facial-patch based recognition framework is proposed to deal with the problem of face recognition (FR) on the serious illumination condition. First, a novel lighting equilibrium distribution maps (LEDM) for illumination normalization is proposed. In LEDM, an image is analyzed in logarithm domain with wavelet transform, and the approximation coefficients of the image are mapped according to a reference-illumination map in order to normalize the distribution of illumination energy due to different lighting effects. Meanwhile, the detail coefficients are enhanced to achieve detail information emphasis. The LEDM is obtained by blurring the distances between the test image and the reference illumination map in the logarithm domain, which may express the entire distribution of illumination variations. Then, a facial-patch based framework and a credit degree based facial patches synthesizing algorithm are proposed. Each normalized face images is divided into several stacked patches. And, all patches are individually classified, then each patch from the test image casts a vote toward the parent image classification. A novel credit degree map is established based on the LEDM, which is deciding a credit degree for each facial patch. The main idea of credit degree map construction is the over-and under-illuminated regions should be assigned lower credit degree than well-illuminated regions. Finally, results are obtained by the credit degree based facial patches synthesizing. The proposed method provides state-of-the-art performance on three data sets that are widely used for testing FR under different illumination conditions: Extended Yale-B, CAS-PEAL-R1, and CMUPIE. Experimental results show that our FR frame outperforms several existing illumination compensation methods.

Resumen

Abstract The robustness of visual place recognition determines the accuracy of the SLAM to construct the environmental map. However, when the robot moves in the outdoor environment for a long time, it must face the challenge of drastic illumination changes (time shift, season or rain and fog weather factors), which leads to the robot’s ability to identify places is greatly restricted. This paper proposes a method for visual place recognition that is more robust to severe illumination changes. First, a generative adversarial network is introduced into visual SLAM to enhance the quality of candidate keyframes, and consistency of geographic locations corresponding to images before and after quality enhancement is evaluated, and then the image descriptor with illumination invariance is established for the robot's new observation image and keyframes of the map. Finally, the performance of the method in this paper is tested on the public dataset. The experimental results show that this method is conducive to improving the quality of environmental map nodes, and enables the robot to show a highly robust ability for visual place recognition in the face of severe illumination changes, which provides a powerful tool for robot to build an accurate environmental map.

Resumen

The application of a deconvolution imaging condition in wave-equation shot-profile migration is important to provide illumination compensation and amplitude recovery. Particularly if the aim is to successfully recover a measure of the medium reflectivity, an imaging condition that destroys amplitudes is unacceptable. We study a set of imaging conditions with illumination compensation. The imaging conditions are evaluated by the quality of the output amplitudes and artifacts produced. In numerical experiments using a vertically inhomogeneous velocity model, the best of all imaging conditions we tested is the one that divides the crosscorrelation of upgoing and downgoing wavefields by the autocorrelation of the downgoing wavefield, also known as the illumination map. In an application to Marmousi data, unconditional division by autocorrelation turned out to be unstable. Effective stabilization was achieved by smoothing the illumination map.

Resumen

Recently, low-light image enhancement has attracted much attention. However, some problems still exist. For instance, sometimes dark regions are not fully improved, but bright regions near the light source or auxiliary light source are overexposed. To address these problems, a retinex based method that strengthens the illumination map is proposed, which utilizes a brightness enhancement function (BEF) that is a weighted sum of the Sigmoid function cascading by Gamma correction (GC) and Sine function, and an improved adaptive contrast enhancement (IACE) to enhance the estimated illumination map through multi-scale fusion. Specifically, firstly, the illumination map is obtained according to retinex theory via the weighted sum method, which considers neighborhood information. Then, the Gaussian Laplacian pyramid is used to fuse two input images that are derived by BEF and IACE, so that it can improve brightness and contrast of the illuminance component acquired above. Finally, the adjusted illuminance map is multiplied by the reflection map to obtain the enhanced image according to the retinex theory. Extensive experiments show that our method has better results in subjective vision and quantitative index evaluation compared with other state-of-the-art methods.

Resumen

Design optimization techniques are often used at the beginning of the design process to explore the space of possible designs. In these domains illumination algorithms, such as MAP-Elites, are promising alternatives to classic optimization algorithms because they produce diverse, high-quality solutions in a single run, instead of only a single near-optimal solution. Unfortunately, these algorithms currently require a large number of function evaluations, limiting their applicability. In this article, we introduce a new illumination algorithm, Surrogate-Assisted Illumination (SAIL), that leverages surrogate modeling techniques to create a map of the design space according to user-defined features while minimizing the number of fitness evaluations. On a two-dimensional airfoil optimization problem, SAIL produces hundreds of diverse but high-performing designs with several orders of magnitude fewer evaluations than MAP-Elites or CMA-ES. We demonstrate that SAIL is also capable of producing maps of high-performing designs in realistic three-dimensional aerodynamic tasks with an accurate flow simulation. Data-efficient design exploration with SAIL can help designers understand what is possible, beyond what is optimal, by considering more than pure objective-based optimization.

Resumen

Face recognition using a single sample per person is a challenging problem in computer vision. In this scenario, due to the lack of training samples, it is difficult to distinguish between inter-class variations caused by identity and intra-class variations caused by external factors such as illumination, pose, etc. To address this problem, we propose a scheme to improve the recognition rate by both generating additional samples to enrich the intra-variation and eliminating external factors to extract invariant features. Firstly, a 3D face modeling module is proposed to recover the intrinsic properties of the input image, i.e., 3D face shape and albedo. To obtain the complete albedo, we come up with an end-to-end network to estimate the full albedo UV map from incomplete textures. The obtained albedo UV map not only eliminates the influence of the illumination, pose, and expression, but also retains the identity information. With the help of the recovered intrinsic properties, we then generate images under various illuminations, expressions, and poses. Finally, the albedo and the generated images are used to assist single sample per person face recognition. The experimental results on Face Recognition Technology (FERET), Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW), Celebrities in Frontal-Profile (CFP) and other face databases demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Resumen

Poor imaging is frequently observed in many subsalt regions, making the subsalt stratigraphy interpretation and prospect evaluation challenging. We propose a critical reflection illumination analysis to evaluate subsalt illumination in areas where high-velocity contrasts create illumination and imaging shadows. Critical reflection often occurs at the base or flank of salt bodies. If critical reflection occurred, continued iterations of processing and imaging would generate little, if any, improvement in imaging results. Similarly, increasing the offset/azimuth of the acquisition would offer limited or no advantage. We introduce the critical reflection illumination map and illumination rose diagram to efficiently and effectively evaluate the probability of critical reflection for the target. This analysis can help avoid expensive processing, imaging, and acquisition efforts for areas that are in the critical/postcritical reflection regime. Critical reflection illumination analysis can also be applied to other high-velocity contrast scenarios.

Resumen

In order to obtain correct facial recognition results, one needs to adopt appropriate facial detection techniques. Moreover, the effects of facial detection are usually affected by the environmental conditions such as background, illumination, and complexity of objectives. In this paper, the proposed facial detection scheme, which is based on depth map analysis, aims to improve the effectiveness of facial detection and recognition under different environmental illumination conditions. The proposed procedures consist of scene depth determination, outline analysis, Haar-like classification, and related image processing operations. Since infrared light sources can be used to increase dark visibility, the active infrared visual images captured by a structured light sensory device such as Kinect will be less influenced by environmental lights. It benefits the accuracy of the facial detection. Therefore, the proposed system will detect the objective human and face firstly and obtain the relative position by structured light analysis. Next, the face can be determined by image processing operations. From the experimental results, it demonstrates that the proposed scheme not only improves facial detection under varying light conditions but also benefits facial recognition.

Resumen

Aiming at the problem that obstacle avoidance of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) cannot effectively detect obstacles under low illumination, this research proposes an enhancement algorithm for low-light airborne images, which is based on the camera response model and Retinex theory. Firstly, the mathematical model of low-illumination image enhancement is established, and the relationship between the camera response function (CRF) and brightness transfer function (BTF) is constructed by a common parameter equation. Secondly, to solve the problem that the enhancement algorithm using the camera response model will lead to blurred image details, Retinex theory is introduced into the camera response model to design an enhancement algorithm framework suitable for UAV obstacle avoidance. Thirdly, to shorten the time consumption of the algorithm, an acceleration solver is adopted to calculate the illumination map, and the exposure matrix is further calculated via the illumination map. Additionally, the maximum exposure value is set for low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) pixels to suppress noise. Finally, a camera response model and exposure matrix are used to adjust the low-light image to obtain an enhanced image. The enhancement experiment for the constructed dataset shows that the proposed algorithm can significantly enhance the brightness of low-illumination images, and is superior to other similar available algorithms in quantitative evaluation metrics. Compared with the illumination enhancement algorithm based on infrared and visible image fusion, the proposed algorithm can achieve illumination enhancement without introducing additional airborne sensors. The obstacle object detection experiment shows that the proposed algorithm can increase the AP (average precision) value by 0.556.

Resumen

Illumination estimation from a single image is critical in 3D rendering and it has been investigated extensively in the computer vision and computer graphic research community. On the other hand, existing works estimate illumination by either regressing light parameters or generating illumination maps that are often hard to optimize or tend to produce inaccurate predictions. We propose Earth Mover’s Light (EMLight), an illumination estimation framework that leverages a regression network and a neural projector for accurate illumination estimation. We decompose the illumination map into spherical light distribution, light intensity and the ambient term, and define the illumination estimation as a parameter regression task for the three illumination components. Motivated by the Earth Mover's distance, we design a novel spherical mover's loss that guides to regress light distribution parameters accurately by taking advantage of the subtleties of spherical distribution. Under the guidance of the predicted spherical distribution, light intensity and ambient term, the neural projector synthesizes panoramic illumination maps with realistic light frequency. Extensive experiments show that EMLight achieves accurate illumination estimation and the generated relighting in 3D object embedding exhibits superior plausibility and fidelity as compared with state-of-the-art methods.

Resumen

This paper aims at image matching under significantly different illumination conditions, especially illumination angle changes, without prior knowledge of lighting conditions. We investigated the illumination impact on Phase Correlation (PC) matrix by mathematical derivation and from which, we decomposed PC matrix as the multiplication product of the illumination impact matrix and the translation matrix. Thus the robustness to illumination variation of the widely used Absolute Dirichlet Curve-fitting (AD-CF) algorithm for pixel-wise disparity estimation is proved. Further, an improved PC matching algorithm is proposed: Absolute Dirichlet SVD (AD-SVD), to achieve illumination invariant image alignment. Experiments of matching DEM simulated terrain shading images under very different illumination angles demonstrated that AD-SVD achieved 1/20 pixels accuracy for image alignment and it is nearly entirely invariant to daily and seasonal solar position variation. The AD-CF algorithm was tested for generating disparity map from multi-illumination angle stereo pairs and the results demonstrated high fidelity to the original DEM and the Normalised Correlation Coefficient (NCC) between the two is 0.96.

Resumen

In this paper, we propose a new defog algorithm based on fog veil subtraction to remove fog from a single image. The proposed algorithm first estimates the illumination component of the image by applying smoothing to the degraded image, and then obtains the uniform distributed fog veil through a mean calculation of the illumination component. Next, we multiply the uniform veil by the original image to obtain a depth-like map and extract its intensity component to produce a fog veil whose distribution is according with real fog density of the scene. Once the fog veil is calculated, the reflectance map can be obtained by subtracting the veil from the degraded image. Finally, we apply an adaptive contrast stretching to the reflectance map to obtain an enhanced result. This algorithm can be easily extended to video domains and is verified by both real-scene photographs and videos.

Resumen

In planetary construction, the semiautonomous teleoperation of robots is expected to perform complex tasks for site preparation and infrastructure emplacement. A highly detailed 3D map is essential for construction planning and management. However, the planetary surface imposes mapping restrictions due to rugged and homogeneous terrains. Additionally, changes in illumination conditions cause the mapping result (or 3D point-cloud map) to have inconsistent color properties that hamper the understanding of the topographic properties of a worksite. Therefore, this paper proposes a robotic construction mapping approach robust to illumination-variant environments. The proposed approach leverages a deep learning-based low-light image enhancement (LLIE) method to improve the mapping capabilities of the visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)-based robotic mapping method. In the experiment, the robotic mapping system in the emulated planetary worksite collected terrain images during the daytime from noon to late afternoon. Two sets of point-cloud maps, which were created from original and enhanced terrain images, were examined for comparison purposes. The experiment results showed that the LLIE method in the robotic mapping method significantly enhanced the brightness, preserving the inherent colors of the original terrain images. The visibility and the overall accuracy of the point-cloud map were consequently increased.

Resumen

Iris segmentation in the iris recognition systems is a challenging task under noncooperative environments. The iris segmentation is a process of detecting the pupil, iris’s outer boundary, and eyelids in the iris image. In this paper, we propose a pupil localization method for locating the pupils in the non-close-up and frontal-view iris images that are captured under near-infrared (NIR) illuminations and contain the noise, such as specular and lighting reflection spots, eyeglasses, nonuniform illumination, low contrast, and occlusions by the eyelids, eyelashes, and eyebrow hair. In the proposed method, first, a novel edge-map is created from the iris image, which is based on combining the conventional thresholding and edge detection based segmentation techniques, and then, the general circular Hough transform (CHT) is used to find the pupil circle parameters in the edge-map. Our main contribution in this research is a novel edge-map creation technique, which reduces the false edges drastically in the edge-map of the iris image and makes the pupil localization in the noisy NIR images more accurate, fast, robust, and simple. The proposed method was tested with three iris databases: CASIA-Iris-Thousand (version 4.0), CASIA-Iris-Lamp (version 3.0), and MMU (version 2.0). The average accuracy of the proposed method is 99.72% and average time cost per image is 0.727 sec.

Resumen

Change detection on retinal fundus image pairs mainly seeks to compare the important differences between a pair of images obtained at two different time points such as in anatomical structures or lesions. Illumination variation usually challenges the change detection methods in many cases. Robust principal component analysis (RPCA) takes intensity normalization and linear interpolation to greatly reduce the illumination variation between the continuous frames and then decomposes the image matrix to obtain the robust background model. The matrix-RPCA can obtain clear change regions, but when there are local bright spots on the image, the background model is vulnerable to illumination, and the change detection results are inaccurate. In this paper, a patch-based RPCA (P-RPCA) is proposed to detect the change of fundus image pairs, where a pair of fundus images is normalized and linearly interpolated to expand a low-rank image sequence; then, images are divided into many patches to obtain an image-patch matrix, and finally, the change regions are obtained by the low-rank decomposition. The proposed method is validated on a set of large lesion image pairs in clinical data. The area under curve (AUC) and mean average precision (mAP) of the method proposed in this paper are 0.9832 and 0.8641, respectively. For a group of small lesion image pairs with obvious local illumination changes in clinical data, the AUC and mAP obtained by the P-RPCA method are 0.9893 and 0.9401, respectively. The results show that the P-RPCA method is more robust to local illumination changes than the RPCA method, and has stronger performance in change detection than the RPCA method.

Resumen

When side-scan sonars collect data, sonar energy attenuation, the residual of time varying gain, beam patterns, angular responses, and sonar altitude variations occur, which lead to an uneven gray level in side-scan sonar images. Therefore, gray scale correction is needed before further processing of side-scan sonar images. In this paper, we introduce the causes of gray distortion in side-scan sonar images and the commonly used optical and side-scan sonar gray scale correction methods. As existing methods cannot effectively correct distortion, we propose a simple, yet effective gray scale correction method for side-scan sonar images based on Retinex given the characteristics of side-scan sonar images. Firstly, we smooth the original image and add a constant as an illumination map. Then, we divide the original image by the illumination map to produce the reflection map. Finally, we perform element-wise multiplication between the reflection map and a constant coefficient to produce the final enhanced image. Two different schemes are used to implement our algorithm. For gray scale correction of side-scan sonar images, the proposed method is more effective than the latest similar methods based on the Retinex theory, and the proposed method is faster. Experiments prove the validity of the proposed method.

Resumen

Objects in real three-dimensional environments receive illumination from all directions, characterized in computer graphics by an environmental illumination map. The spectral content of this illumination can vary widely with direction [1], which means that the computational task of recovering surface color under environmental illumination cannot be reduced to correction for a single illuminant. We report the performance of human observers in selecting a target surface color from three distractors, one rendered under the same environmental illumination as the target, and two rendered under a different environmental illumination. Surface colors were selected such that, in the vast majority of trials, observers could identify the environment that contained non-identical surface colors, and color constancy performance was analyzed as the percentage of correct choices between the remaining two surfaces. The target and distractor objects were either matte or glossy and presented either with surrounding context or in a dark void. Mean performance ranged from 70% to 80%. There was a significant improvement in the presence of context, but no difference for matte and glossy stimuli, and no interaction between gloss and context. Analysis of trial-by-trial responses showed a dependence on the statistical properties of previously viewed images. Such analyses provide a means of investigating mechanisms that depend on environmental features, and not only on the properties of the instantaneous proximal image.

Resumen

This paper describes how a facial albedo map can be recovered from a single image using a statistical model that captures variations in surface normal direction. We fit the model to intensity data using constraints on the surface normal direction provided by Lambert's law and then use the differences between observed and reconstructed image brightness to estimate the albedo. We show that this process is stable under varying illumination. We then show how eigenfaces trained on albedo maps may provide a better representation for illumination insensitive recognition than those trained on raw image intensity.

Resumen

In recent years, deep convolutional neural network (CNN)-based image enhancement has shown outstanding performance. However, due to the problems of uneven illumination and low contrast existing in endoscopic images, the implementation of medical endoscopic image enhancement using CNN is still an exploratory and challenging task. An endoscopic image enhancement network (EIEN) based on the Retinex theory is proposed in this paper to solve these problems. The structure consists of three parts: decomposition network, illumination correction network, and reflection component enhancement algorithm. First, the decomposition network model of pre-trained Retinex-Net is retrained on the endoscopic image dataset, and then the images are decomposed into illumination and reflection components by this decomposition network. Second, the illumination components are corrected by the proposed self-attention guided multi-scale pyramid structure. The pyramid structure is used to capture the multi-scale information of the image. The self-attention mechanism is based on the imaging nature of the endoscopic image, and the inverse image of the illumination component is fused with the features of the green and blue channels of the image to be enhanced to generate a weight map that reassigns weights to the spatial dimension of the feature map, to avoid the loss of details in the process of multi-scale feature fusion and image reconstruction by the network. The reflection component enhancement is achieved by sub-channel stretching and weighted fusion, which is used to enhance the vascular information and image contrast. Finally, the enhanced illumination and reflection components are multiplied to obtain the reconstructed image. We compare the results of the proposed method with six other methods on a test set. The experimental results show that EIEN enhances the brightness and contrast of endoscopic images and highlights vascular and tissue information. At the same time, the method in this paper obtained the best results in terms of visual perception and objective evaluation.

Resumen

This paper investigated foreign language learning efficiency in four different illumination environments (in different illuminance and color temperatures), focusing on the influence of the illumination environment on foreign language learners’ sentimental status, by means of foreign language skills testing in mind-map, objective evaluation of physiological reaction, and subjective evaluation of psychological reaction. It was shown that in different illumination environments, the language skills of foreign language learners were different, and their psychological and physiological reactions varied, which influenced the efficiency of foreign language learning. The results indicated that the ideal learning space was in high illuminance and low color temperature, which increased the stimulation in foreign language learners; promoted the formation of optimistic sentiment; and enhanced their interest in, and the quality and efficiency of, foreign language learning.

Resumen

In computer graphics and augmented reality applications, the illumination information in an outdoor environment enables us to generate a realistic shadow for a virtual object. This paper presents a method by which to estimate the illumination information using a human object in a scene. A Gaussian mixture model, in which the mixtures of Gaussian distributions are symmetrical, is employed to learn the background. The human object is then segmented from the input images and the disparity map obtained by a stereo camera. The ground plane in the scene, which is important for estimating the location of the human object on the ground, is then detected using the v-disparity map. The altitude and the azimuth value of the sun are computed from the geometric relationship of three scene elements: the ground, human object, and human-shadow region. The experimental results showed that the proposed method can estimate the sun information accurately and generate a shadow in the scene for a virtual object.

Resumen

An improved Multi-Exposure image fusion scheme is proposed to fuse visual images for wide range illumination applications. While previous image fusion approaches perform the fusion only concern with local details such as regional contrast and gradient, the proposed algorithm takes global illumination contrast into consideration at the same time; this can extend the dynamic range evidently. Wavelet is used as Multi-Scale analysis tool in intensity fusion. For color fusion, HSI color model and weight map based method is used. The experimental results showed that the proposed fusion scheme has significant advantages in dynamic range, regional contrast and color saturation.

Resumen

If the circular holes of an engine cylinder head are distorted, cracked, defective, etc., the normal running of the equipment will be affected. For detecting these faults with high accuracy, this paper proposes a detection method based on feature point matching, which can reduce the detection error caused by distortion and light interference. First, the effective and robust feature vectors of pixels are extracted based on improved sparse Haar-like features. Then we calculate the similarity and find the most similar matching point from the image. In order to improve the robustness to the illumination, this paper uses the method based on image similarity to map the original image, so that the same region under different illumination conditions has similar spatial distribution. The experiments show that the algorithm not only has high matching accuracy, but also has good robustness to the illumination.
