Abstract

Imbalance oriented selection scheme was recently proposed to detect stable image points in weakly or sparsely textured images. The scheme chooses image points whose one-pixelwide directional intensity variations can be clustered into two imbalanced classes as candidates. In this paper, we propose general imbalance decided by multi-pixel-wide directional intensity variations. We present a case study of general imbalanced points in road sign images, which demonstrates the good potential of general imbalanced points.
