A new development in local symmetry extraction and its connections to segmentation functionals and the fronts propagating with curvature-dependent speed are examined. The basic tool is a new distance function that attains its maximum value at the shape boundary and decays rapidly away from there. It is shown that the Hessian of the distance function captures perceptual information that can be extracted easily, efficiently, and robustly in the form of nested local shape symmetries at multiple scales. The most important property of the distance function is that it can be computed from unprocessed images; thus the segmentation loci of an image can be represented without the knowledge of the segmentation loci itself. The formulation is also valid for shapes in any dimension.

Development of free and open source software for flow mapping integrated to geographic information systems
Güllüoğlu, Naim Cem; Işık, Oğuz; Karahanoğlu, Nurkan; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2014)
Mapping of spatial interaction data is an ongoing challenge for cartographers. In many Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software there is no off-the-shelf functionality for processing and visualizing spatial interactions or geographical flows. Considering the development efforts that have been made in the last few decades to discover the potential of GIS almost in every aspect, handling and visualization of spatial interaction data under GIS remain underutilized. The main objective of this study is to d...
Road network extraction from high-resolution multi spectral satellite images
Karaman, Ersin; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Information Systems (2012)
In this thesis, an automatic road extraction algorithm for multi-spectral images is developed. The developed model extracts elongated structures from images by using edge detection, segmentation and clustering techniques. The study also extracts non-road regions like vegetative fields, bare soils and water bodies to obtain more accurate road map. The model is constructed in a modular approach that aims to extract roads with different characteristics. Each module output is combined to create a road score map...
A Shadow based trainable method for building detection in satellite images
Dikmen, Mehmet; Halıcı, Uğur; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2014)
The purpose of this thesis is to develop a supervised building detection and extraction algorithm with a shadow based learning method for high-resolution satellite images. First, shadow segments are identified on an over-segmented image, and then neighboring shadow segments are merged by assuming that they are cast by a single building. Next, these shadow regions are used to detect the candidate regions where buildings most likely occur. Together with this information, distance to shadows towards illuminati...
Shape recognition with generalized beam angle statistics
Tola, OO; Arica, N; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2004-04-30)
In this study, we develop a new shape descriptor and matching algorithm in order to find a given template shape in an edge detected image without performing boundary extraction. The shape descriptor based on Generalized Beam Angle Statistics (GBAS) defines the angles between the lines connecting each boundary point with the rest of the points, as random variable. Then, it assigns a feature vector to each point using the moments of beam angles. The proposed matching algorithm performs shape recognition by ma...
An implicit one-line numerical model on longshore sediment transport
Esen, Mustafa; Ergin, Ayşen; Department of Civil Engineering (2007)
In this study, a numerical model “Modified Coast-Structure Interaction Numerical Model” (CSIM) is developed with an implicit approach to determine the shoreline changes due to wind wave induced longshore sediment transport under the presence of groins, T-groins and offshore breakwaters by making modifications on the explicit numerical model “Coast-Structure Interaction Numerical Model” (CSI). Using representative wave data transformed to a chosen reference depth from deep water, numerical model (CSIM) simul...
