An Irregular Pyramid for Multi-scale Analysis of Objects and Their Parts
We present an irregular image pyramid which is derived from multi-scale analysis of segmented watershed regions. Our framework is based on the development of regions in the Gaussian scale-space, which is represented by a region hierarchy graph. Using this structure, we are able to determine geometrically precise borders of our segmented regions using a region focusing. In order to handle the complexity, we select only stable regions and regions resulting from a merging event, which enables us to keep the hierarchical structure of the regions. Using this framework, we are able to detect objects of various scales in an image. Finally, the hierarchical structure is used for describing these detected regions as aggregations of their parts. We investigate the usefulness of the regions for interpreting images showing building facades with parts like windows, balconies or entrances.
