The subject of the research is the methods of image classification on a set of key point descriptors in computer vision systems. The goal is to improve the performance of structural classification methods by introducing indexed hash structures on the set of the dataset reference images descriptors and a consistent chain combination of several stages of data analysis in the classification process. Applied methods: BRISK detector and descriptors, data hashing tools, search methods in large data arrays, metric models for the vector relevance estimation, software modeling. The obtained results: developed an effective method of image classification based on the introduction of high-speed search using indexed hash structures, that speeds up the calculation dozens of times; the gain in computing time increases with an increase of the number of reference images and descriptors in descriptions; the peculiarity of the classifier is that not an exact search is performed, but taking into account the permissible deviation of data from the reference; experimentally verified the effectiveness of the classification, which indicates the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed method. The practical significance of the work is the construction of classification models in the transformed space of the hash data representation, the efficiency confirmation of the proposed classifiers modifications on image examples, development of applied software models implementing the proposed classification methods in computer vision systems.

The subject of research is models for constructing image classifiers in the description space as a set of descriptors of key points in the recognition of visual objects in computer vision systems. The goal is to create and study the properties of the image classifier based on the construction of an ensemble of distributions for the components of the structural description using various models of classification decisions, which provides effective classification. Tasks: construction of classification models in the synthesized space of images of probability distributions, analysis of parameters influencing their efficiency, experimental evaluation of the effectiveness of classifiers by means of software modeling based on the results of processing the experimental image base. The applied methods are: ORB detector for formation of keypoint descriptors, data mining, mathematical statistics, means of determining relevance for sets of data vectors, software modeling. The obtained results: The developed method of classification confirms its efficiency and effectiveness for image classification. The effectiveness of the method can be enhanced by the introduction of a variety of types of metrics and measures of similarity between centers and descriptors, by the choice of method of forming centers for reference etalon descriptions, by the introduction of logical processing and compression of the structural description. The best results of the classification were shown by the model using the most important class by the distribution vector for each descriptor corresponding to the mode parameter. The use of a concentrated part of the description data makes it possible to improve its distinction from other descriptions. The use of the median as the center of description has an advantage over the mean. Conclusions. Scientific novelty is the development of an effective method of image classification based on the introduction of a system of probability distributions for data components, which contributes to in-depth analysis in the data space and increases in classification effectiveness. The classifier is implemented in the variants of comparing the integrated representation of distributions by classes and on the basis of mode analysis for the distributions of individual components. The practical importance of the work is the construction of classification models in the modified data space, confirmation of the efficiency of the proposed modifications of data analysis on examples of images, development of software models for implementation of the proposed classification methods in computer vision systems.

Detecting objects in a video stream is a typical problem in modern computer vision systems that are used in multiple areas. Object detection can be done on both static images and on frames of a video stream. Essentially, object detection means finding color and intensity non-uniformities which can be treated as physical objects. Beside that, the operations of finding coordinates, size and other characteristics of these non-uniformities that can be used to solve other computer vision related problems like object identification can be executed. In this paper, we study three algorithms which can be used to detect objects of different nature and are based on different approaches: detection of color non-uniformities, frame difference and feature detection. As the input data, we use a video stream which is obtained from a video camera or from an mp4 video file. Simulations and testing of the algoritms were done on a universal computer based on an open-source hardware, built on the Broadcom BCM2711, quad-core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC processor with frequency 1,5GHz. The software was created in Visual Studio 2019 using OpenCV 4 on Windows 10 and on a universal computer operated under Linux (Raspbian Buster OS) for an open-source hardware. In the paper, the methods under consideration are compared. The results of the paper can be used in research and development of modern computer vision systems used for different purposes. Keywords: object detection, feature points, keypoints, ORB detector, computer vision, motion detection, HSV model color

AbstractOne of the main problems when monitoring Caenorhabditis elegans nematodes (C. elegans) is tracking their poses by automatic computer vision systems. This is a challenge given the marked flexibility that their bodies present and the different poses that can be performed during their behaviour individually, which become even more complicated when worms aggregate with others while moving. This work proposes a simple solution by combining some computer vision techniques to help to determine certain worm poses and to identify each one during aggregation or in coiled shapes. This new method is based on the distance transformation function to obtain better worm skeletons. Experiments were performed with 205 plates, each with 10, 15, 30, 60 or 100 worms, which totals 100,000 worm poses approximately. A comparison of the proposed method was made to a classic skeletonisation method to find that 2196 problematic poses had improved by between 22% and 1% on average in the pose predictions of each worm.

Computer vision algorithms are increasingly being applied to museum collections to identify patterns, colors, and subjects by generating tags for each object image. There are multiple off-the-shelf systems that offer an accessible and rapid way to undertake this process. Based on the highlights of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this article examines the similarities and differences between the tags generated by three well-known computer vision systems (Google Cloud Vision, Amazon Rekognition, and IBM Watson). The results provide insights into the characteristics of these taxonomies in terms of the volume of tags generated for each object, their diversity, typology, and accuracy. In consequence, this article discusses the need for museums to define their own subject tagging strategy and selection criteria of computer vision tools based on their type of collection and tags needed to complement their metadata.

The aim is an experimental research on the flat objects recognition using dimensionless marks of the contours of their binary images and determining the possibility of applying this method in computer vision systems of assembly robots. The main problem with the automation of assembly operations is the recognition of parts for the subsequent picking up of the robot arm. The basis for the formation of attribute vectors is the characteristics of the image contour. Recognition of a class of an unknown object consists in receipt of its contour, calculation of primary parameters and forming of a vector of dimensionless marks. Further mean square deviations of its vector of dimensionless marks from all reference are calculated. The minimum value of a deviation will specify probable belonging to the corresponding class.
