What is a Scene?Scene- as opposed to
‘object’ or ‘texture’
Object: when view subtends 1 to 2 meters around observer---hand distance
Scene Recognition2 approachesObject recognition
Global info – details and object info ignoredo Experimental
evidenceo ‘Gist’ of image
Scene RecognitionExclusive
classificationStructural
attributes- Continuous organization of scenes along semantic axes
Semantic axes2 levels:
Degree of naturalness: man-made to natural landscape
Ambiguous (building in field) pictures around center
Semantic axesNatural scenes-
degree of openness
Artificial urban scenes- degree of verticalness and horizontalness
Highways--Highways +Tall Building---Tall Buildings
Mathematical Details…Important data from Image power spectrum
Structural discriminant feature
DST=Discriminat Spectral Template- --an encoding of the discriminant structure between two image categories
‘u’ -weighted integral of power spectrum
Classification
Image = Feature Vector()
Required Classes
Linear Discriminant Analysis
Discriminating Vector (D.V)Maximum Separation b/w classes
Mathematical Details…..Image represented as Feature Vector x.m1 , m2: mean vector of feature vector of 2
classes
Learning…Projection of Training Set
Image F.V. on D.V.
Use LDA to determine Threshold

Artificial•80 Test Images•67 classified Correctly
Natural•80 Test Images•75 classified Correctly
89% Correct results
Future WorkArrangement in semantic axesAddition of features
Depth Symmetry
Contrast Ruggedness
8 category arrangement (skyscrapers, highway, street, flat building, beach, field, mountain, forest)
Experiment with Haar and other filters
