Performance assessment of feature detection algorithms: a methodology and case study on corner detectors
Peter I. Rockett · IEEE Transactions on Image Processing · 2003
In this paper, we describe a generic methodology for evaluating the labeling performance of feature detectors. We describe a method for generating a test set and apply the methodology to the performance assessment of three well-known corner detectors: the Kitchen-Rosenfeld, Paler et al., and Harris-Stephens corner detectors. The labeling deficiencies of each of these detectors is related to their discrimination ability between corners and various of the features which comprise the class of noncorners.
