Abstract:

As the difference in bending degree between comer points and non-corner points is not large enough for image detection, an algorithm of image comer detection based on the product of two bending degrees is proposed. The proposed algorithm enlarges the differences in bending degree by multiplying the first bending degree and the second bending degree. Then, the comer detection for digital images is conducted. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is simple and effective, and that it helps to detect image comers with good stability and high precision.

Key words: corner detection, bending degree, image corner, curvature
