==============
Blob Detection
==============
Blobs are bright on dark or dark on bright regions in an image. In
this example, blobs are detected using 3 algorithms. The image used
in this case is the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field. Each bright dot in the
image is a star or a galaxy.
Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG)
-----------------------------
This is the most accurate and slowest approach. It computes the Laplacian
of Gaussian images with successively increasing standard deviation and
stacks them up in a cube. Blobs are local maximas in this cube. Detecting
larger blobs is especially slower because of larger kernel sizes during
convolution. Only bright blobs on dark backgrounds are detected. See
:py:meth:`skimage.feature.blob_log` for usage.
Difference of Gaussian (DoG)
----------------------------
This is a faster approximation of LoG approach. In this case the image is
blurred with increasing standard deviations and the difference between
two successively blurred images are stacked up in a cube. This method
suffers from the same disadvantage as LoG approach for detecting larger
blobs. Blobs are again assumed to be bright on dark. See
:py:meth:`skimage.feature.blob_dog` for usage.
Determinant of Hessian (DoH)
----------------------------
This is the fastest approach. It detects blobs by finding maximas in the
matrix of the Determinant of Hessian of the image. The detection speed is
independent of the size of blobs as internally the implementation uses
box filters instead of convolutions. Bright on dark as well as dark on
bright blobs are detected. The downside is that small blobs (<3px) are not
detected accurately. See :py:meth:`skimage.feature.blob_doh` for usage.

BRIEF binary descriptor
=======================
This example demonstrates the BRIEF binary description algorithm.
The descriptor consists of relatively few bits and can be computed using
a set of intensity difference tests. The short binary descriptor results
in low memory footprint and very efficient matching based on the Hamming
distance metric.
BRIEF does not provide rotation-invariance. Scale-invariance can be achieved by
detecting and extracting features at different scales.

Gabors / Primary Visual Cortex "Simple Cells" from an Image
============================================================
How to build a (bio-plausible) "sparse" dictionary (or 'codebook', or
'filterbank') for e.g. image classification without any fancy math and
with just standard python scientific libraries?
Please find below a short answer ;-)
This simple example shows how to get Gabor-like filters [1]_ using just
a simple image. In our example, we use a photograph of the astronaut Eileen
Collins. Gabor filters are good approximations of the "Simple Cells" [2]_
receptive fields [3]_ found in the mammalian primary visual cortex (V1)
(for details, see e.g. the Nobel-prize winning work of Hubel & Wiesel done
in the 60s [4]_ [5]_).
Here we use McQueen's 'kmeans' algorithm [6]_, as a simple biologically
plausible hebbian-like learning rule and we apply it (a) to patches of
the original image (retinal projection), and (b) to patches of an
LGN-like [7]_ image using a simple difference of gaussians (DoG)
approximation.
Enjoy ;-) And keep in mind that getting Gabors on natural image patches
is not rocket science.

A GLCM is a histogram of co-occurring greyscale values at a given

In this example, samples of two different textures are extracted from
an image: grassy areas and sky areas. For each patch, a GLCM with
a horizontal offset of 5 is computed. Next, two features of the
GLCM matrices are computed: dissimilarity and correlation. These are
plotted to illustrate that the classes form clusters in feature space.

Histogram of Oriented Gradients
===============================
The `Histogram of Oriented Gradient
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram_of_oriented_gradients>`__ (HOG) feature
descriptor [1]_ is popular for object detection.
In the following example, we compute the HOG descriptor and display
a visualisation.
Algorithm overview
------------------
Compute a Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) by
1. (optional) global image normalisation
2. computing the gradient image in x and y
3. computing gradient histograms
4. normalising across blocks
5. flattening into a feature vector
The first stage applies an optional global image normalisation
equalisation that is designed to reduce the influence of illumination
effects. In practice we use gamma (power law) compression, either
computing the square root or the log of each colour channel.
Image texture strength is typically proportional to the local surface
illumination so this compression helps to reduce the effects of local
shadowing and illumination variations.
The second stage computes first order image gradients. These capture
contour, silhouette and some texture information, while providing
further resistance to illumination variations. The locally dominant
colour channel is used, which provides colour invariance to a large
extent. Variant methods may also include second order image derivatives,
which act as primitive bar detectors - a useful feature for capturing,
e.g. bar like structures in bicycles and limbs in humans.
The third stage aims to produce an encoding that is sensitive to
local image content while remaining resistant to small changes in
pose or appearance. The adopted method pools gradient orientation
information locally in the same way as the SIFT [2]_
feature. The image window is divided into small spatial regions,
called "cells". For each cell we accumulate a local 1-D histogram
of gradient or edge orientations over all the pixels in the
cell. This combined cell-level 1-D histogram forms the basic
"orientation histogram" representation. Each orientation histogram
divides the gradient angle range into a fixed number of
predetermined bins. The gradient magnitudes of the pixels in the
cell are used to vote into the orientation histogram.
The fourth stage computes normalisation, which takes local groups of
cells and contrast normalises their overall responses before passing
to next stage. Normalisation introduces better invariance to illumination,
shadowing, and edge contrast. It is performed by accumulating a measure
of local histogram "energy" over local groups of cells that we call
"blocks". The result is used to normalise each cell in the block.
Typically each individual cell is shared between several blocks, but
its normalisations are block dependent and thus different. The cell
thus appears several times in the final output vector with different
normalisations. This may seem redundant but it improves the performance.
We refer to the normalised block descriptors as Histogram of Oriented
Gradient (HOG) descriptors.
The final step collects the HOG descriptors from all blocks of a dense
overlapping grid of blocks covering the detection window into a combined
feature vector for use in the window classifier.

erosion process. We then limit the erosion by setting the mask to the values

Local Binary Pattern for texture classification
===============================================
In this example, we will see how to classify textures based on LBP (Local
Binary Pattern). LBP looks at points surrounding a central point and tests
whether the surrounding points are greater than or less than the central point
(i.e. gives a binary result).
Before trying out LBP on an image, it helps to look at a schematic of LBPs.
The below code is just used to plot the schematic.

pixels are all black or all white, then that image region is flat (i.e.
featureless). Groups of continuous black or white pixels are considered
"uniform" patterns that can be interpreted as corners or edges. If pixels
switch back-and-forth between black and white pixels, the pattern is considered

Multi-Block Local Binary Pattern for texture classification
===========================================================
This example shows how to compute multi-block local binary pattern (MB-LBP)
features as well as how to visualize them.
The features are calculated similarly to local binary patterns (LBPs), except
that summed blocks are used instead of individual pixel values.
MB-LBP is an extension of LBP that can be computed on multiple scales in
constant time using the integral image. 9 equally-sized rectangles are used to
compute a feature. For each rectangle, the sum of the pixel intensities is
computed. Comparisons of these sums to that of the central rectangle determine
the feature, similarly to LBP (See `LBP <plot_local_binary_pattern.html>`_).
First, we generate an image to illustrate the functioning of MB-LBP: consider
a (9, 9) rectangle and divide it into (3, 3) block, upon which we then apply
MB-LBP.

Template Matching
=================
In this example, we use template matching to identify the occurrence of an
image patch (in this case, a sub-image centered on a single coin). Here, we
return a single match (the exact same coin), so the maximum value in the
``match_template`` result corresponds to the coin location. The other coins
look similar, and thus have local maxima; if you expect multiple matches, you
should use a proper peak-finding function.
The ``match_template`` function uses fast, normalized cross-correlation [1]_
to find instances of the template in the image. Note that the peaks in the
output of ``match_template`` correspond to the origin (i.e. top-left corner) of
the template.

========================
Sliding window histogram
========================
Histogram matching can be used for object detection in images [1]_. This
example extracts a single coin from the `skimage.data.coins` image and uses
histogram matching to attempt to locate it within the original image.
First, a box-shaped region of the image containing the target coin is
extracted and a histogram of its greyscale values is computed.
Next, for each pixel in the test image, a histogram of the greyscale values in
a region of the image surrounding the pixel is computed.
`skimage.filters.rank.windowed_histogram` is used for this task, as it employs
an efficient sliding window based algorithm that is able to compute these
histograms quickly [2]_. The local histogram for the region surrounding each
pixel in the image is compared to that of the single coin, with a similarity
measure being computed and displayed.
The histogram of the single coin is computed using `numpy.histogram` on a box
shaped region surrounding the coin, while the sliding window histograms are
computed using a disc shaped structural element of a slightly different size.
This is done in aid of demonstrating that the technique still finds similarity
in spite of these differences.
To demonstrate the rotational invariance of the technique, the same test is
performed on a version of the coins image rotated by 45 degrees.
