Hello Sir,

I want detect object from image. Study Hog from https://www.learnopencv.com/histogram...

Source image with different scale

C:\fakepath\AppService.png C:\fakepath\filename=4075.png C:\fakepath\filename=12068.png C:\fakepath\filename=12936.png C:\fakepath\filename=31908.png

2)Create 30 negative image. Please see below images as a some negative sample.

C:\fakepath\filename=4037.png
C:\fakepath\filename=7277.png
C:\fakepath\Negative=2300.png

3)Using this example for train and test HOG https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob... I modify main function only to give fix path for above image .

int main()
{
    const char* keys =
    {
        "{help h|     | show help message}"
        "{pd    |     | path of directory contains positive images}"
        "{nd    |     | path of directory contains negative images}"
        "{td    |     | path of directory contains test images}"
        "{tv    |     | test video file name}"
        "{dw    |     | width of the detector}"
        "{dh    |     | height of the detector}"
        "{d     |false| train twice}"
        "{t     |false| test a trained detector}"
        "{v     |false| visualize training steps}"
        "{fn    |my_detector.yml| file name of trained SVM}"
    };


    string pos_dir = "D:\\HogImage\\Positive ";
    string neg_dir = "D:\\HogImage\\Negative";

    //String pos_dir = parser.get< String >("pd");
    //String neg_dir = parser.get< String >("nd");
    String test_dir = "D:\\1\\P";// parser.get< String >("td");
    String obj_det_filename = "D:\\1\\de.ylm";// parser.get< String >("fn");
    int detector_width = 80;// 83;
    int detector_height = 16;
    bool test_detector = false;  //parser.get< bool >("t");
    bool train_twice = true;// parser.get< bool >("d");
    bool visualization = true;// parser.get< bool >("v");
    string videofilename = "D:\\1\\sa.png";
    if (test_detector)
    {
        test_trained_detector(obj_det_filename, test_dir, videofilename);
        return 0;
    }

    if (pos_dir.empty() || neg_dir.empty())
    {   
        }

    vector< Mat > pos_lst, full_neg_lst, neg_lst, gradient_lst;
    vector< int > labels;

    clog << "Positive images are being loaded...";
    load_images(pos_dir, pos_lst, visualization);

    if (pos_lst.size() > 0)
    {
        clog << "...[done]" << endl;
    }
    else
    {
        clog << "no image in " << pos_dir << endl;
        return 1;
    }

    Size pos_image_size = pos_lst[0].size();

    for (size_t i = 0; i < pos_lst.size(); ++i)
    {
        if (pos_lst[i].size() != pos_image_size)
        {
            cout << "All positive images should be same size!" << endl;
            exit(1);
        }
    }

    pos_image_size = pos_image_size / 8 * 8;

    if (detector_width && detector_height)
    {
        pos_image_size = Size(detector_width, detector_height);
    }

    labels.assign(pos_lst.size(), +1);
    const unsigned int old = (unsigned int)labels.size();

    clog << "Negative images are being loaded...";
    load_images(neg_dir, full_neg_lst, false);
    sample_negex(full_neg_lst, neg_lst, pos_image_size);
    clog << "...[done]" << endl;

    labels.insert(labels.end(), neg_lst.size(), -1);
    CV_Assert(old < labels.size());

    clog << "Histogram of Gradients are being calculated for positive images...";
    computeHOGs(pos_image_size, pos_lst, gradient_lst);
    clog << "...[done]" << endl;

    clog << "Histogram of Gradients are being calculated for negative images...";
    computeHOGs(pos_image_size, neg_lst, gradient_lst);
    clog << "...[done]" << endl;

    Mat train_data;
    convert_to_mlex(gradient_lst, train_data);

    clog << "Training SVM...";
    Ptr< SVM > svm = SVM::create();

you probably misunderstood, that "negative" means not showing the object, yours are just inverted positives.

also, this would need like 10x the data for successful training (and i have some doubt, if it can be trained on text like this at all)

i'd rather try to upscale your template by a factor of 2.5, and use plain templateMatching

templateMatching found only matching one image and it is time consuming

i am not sure the HOG detector is the right tool for your desired detection but i made a trial training (you can find details in my test repo)

in beginning i tried to use your images but i can't get a successful detector i think positive images should be larger

test result

Thanks It working with match Weights >0.80 and able to give correct result. It is not working different scaling like 50%,75%,125%,150%,175% scale. Screen attached in my question Source image with different scale . It may be chance to multiple occurrence of same image as you shown in your above example. Please let me know how to detect image from scaled image?

i did only a simple trial training with a few positive images. to increase accuracy you should prepare more positive images.could you explain your scenario. do you need to detect only "App Service" text ?

Thanks Sir, Yes I want to capture only "App Service" image. My aim is that my selected ("App Service") image should be detected from any image containing it, irrespective of its scaling or resolution.

Can you guide me at where i am missing?

Mark gravatar imageMark ( 2017-11-28 23:03:23 -0600 )edit

Please give me some hint,how to get correct result?
