Embodiment Construction

[0038] The invention proposes a non-classical receptive field composite modulation model to realize the extraction of salient contours of night vision images of complex natural scenes. A series of biomimetic vision models are proposed for night vision image features, including a multi-dimensional feature contrast weighted suppression model; group excitation voting facilitation model; multi-scale iterative attention method. Algorithm structure such as image 3 shown.

[0039] 1. Environmental inhibition:

[0040] The two-dimensional Gabor function can effectively describe the receptive field profile of simple cells in the visual cortex, and can well simulate the basic characteristics of typical complex cells through the response mode (Gabor energy) of parity to simple receptive field filters. These complex cells can be regarded as local azimuth energy operators, and the maximum value of complex cell activities can be used to accurately locate the edges and lines of graphics. ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a night vision image salient contour extracting method based on non-classical receptive field composite modulation. A multi-scale iterative noticing method is constructed according to a non-classical receptive field composite modulation model, the scale factor of non-classical receptive field composite modulation is dynamically changed in the iterative process, and a composite modulation result of an input night vision image is calculated. In each step of the iterative process, for each pixel of the input image, a multi-dimensional feature contrast MFC weighted inhibition model is adopted to calculate an inhibition result of each pixel first, then, a facilitation result of each pixel is calculated based on a grouping excited voting GEV facilitation model, and finally, non-classical receptive field composite modulation output is obtained. By adopting the method of the invention, the problem of noise and texture suppression in low-light and infrared images and the problem of contour discontinuity caused by imaging characteristics, environment inhibition and noise interference are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of night vision image understanding, in particular to a method for extracting salient contours of night vision images in complex scenes based on vision modeling. Background technique [0002] Contour extraction plays an important role in the understanding and analysis of night vision images (low light, infrared images). At present, most of the applications of night vision target detection and recognition are for outdoor scenes, so night vision images contain a large number of natural textures (such as trees and grass). The result of the traditional edge detection operator retains a large number of non-contour edge components (canny operator). How to remove these local uninteresting edges generated by texture places and maintain the integrity of the contour is aimed at low-light and infrared image features. The main problems faced by night vision image contour detection. [0003] Many solutions have been proposed for...
