A novel strategy for building retrieval based on saliency detection
Zhengkai Liu · Shengxue jishu · 2007
Automatic description of cultural features of buildings and building retrieval is of great pratical interest for a number of applications such as automatic navigation and position system. Traditional meth-ods ignore important structure information of buildings. In this paper we present a novel strategy to the problem of navigating through a database of buildings based on salience detection. With our proposed app-roach,the related structure information is first extracted using salience detection. And then we use a mo-dified EMD method to measure the distance of structure information we acquired for our final naviga-tion. The experiment result indicates that our presented strategy is effective and efficient.
