Abstract

See full text

A method constructs a descriptor for an image of a scene, wherein the descriptor is associated with a vanishing point in the image by first quantizing an angular region around the vanishing point into a preset number of angular quantization bins, and a centroid of each angular quantization bin indicates a direction of the angular quantization bin. For each angular quantization bin, a sum of magnitudes of pixel gradients for pixels in the image at which a direction of the pixel gradient is aligned with the direction of the angular quantization bin is determined, wherein the steps are performed in a processor.
