Abstract

Dominant Point Detection (DPD) is one of the tasks in image analysis; it aims making polygonal approximations through the search of a set of points of relevance in a contour, reducing the amount of information. In this work, the ability of neural networks to learn the performance of several DPD algorithms is studied. For it a dynamic neural net that traverses the contour will be used, giving a relevance measurement for each point and detecting them through a simple post-processing phase. Different training sets and net configurations were used. The results of applying the neural algorithm to images of real objects show its validity, and also the ability of neural nets to learn previously unknown DPD algorithms.
