Abstract

In this paper, a bio-inspired invariant visual feature representation method is proposed. A set of Gabor filters with different parameters and global max operation are performed to improve the adaptability to scale and shift changes. In order to extract rotation-invariant features of images, the K-SVD and SURF algorithms are introduced into the traditional HMAX model. Prototypes (feature templates) are learned by the K-SVD algorithm, while the SURF descriptor of patches aims to enhance the rotation invariance. Experimental results on image classification demonstrate the superiority of the proposed feature representation method.
