Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new approach for plant leaf classification, which treat histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) as a new representation of shape, and use the Maximum Margin Criterion (MMC) for dimensionality reduction. We compare this algorithm with a classic shape classification method Inner-Distance Shape Context (IDSC) on Swedish leaf dataset and ICL dataset. The proposed method achieves better performance compared with IDSC.
