Abstract

An approach to recognizing objects on images is proposed, which uses graph structures and graph algorithms. The image being processed is converted into a grid graph, which is divided into image segments using Kruskal’s algorithm and a Gaussian blur. Each resulting segment is characterized using descriptors, which are then grouped together to form the segment’s fingerprint. In the knowledge base, which is also structured as a graph, groups of object fingerprints are linked via weighted edges, which indicate the degree of contextual association. During object recognition, neighboring segments and contextual associations are used to better predict what objects are presented in the input image.
