一些老式的图像处理方法…… 这个想法是基于这样的假设，即图像描绘的是在通常较暗和较光滑的背景(在某些情况下是前景)上点亮的树木。点亮的树木区域更“有活力”，具有更高的强度。 具体流程如下:

转换为灰度 应用LoG过滤来获得最“活跃”的区域 应用亮度阈值来获得最亮的区域 结合前两个得到一个初步的蒙版 应用形态扩张来扩大区域并连接相邻组件 根据候选区域的面积大小剔除较小的候选区域

你得到的是一个二进制掩码和每个图像的包围框。

以下是使用这种简单技术的结果:

MATLAB代码如下: 该代码运行在带有JPG图像的文件夹上。加载所有图像并返回检测到的结果。

我的解决步骤:

Get R channel (from RGB) - all operations we make on this channel: Create Region of Interest (ROI) Threshold R channel with min value 149 (top right image) Dilate result region (middle left image) Detect eges in computed roi. Tree has a lot of edges (middle right image) Dilate result Erode with bigger radius ( bottom left image) Select the biggest (by area) object - it's the result region ConvexHull ( tree is convex polygon ) ( bottom right image ) Bounding box (bottom right image - grren box )

循序渐进:

第一个结果——最简单但不是开源软件——“自适应视觉工作室+自适应视觉库”: 这不是开源的，但是很快就能原型化:

整个圣诞树检测算法(11块):

下一个步骤。我们需要开源解决方案。将AVL过滤器更改为OpenCV过滤器: 这里我做了一些小改动，例如边缘检测使用cvCanny过滤器，为了尊重roi，我将区域图像与边缘图像相乘，为了选择最大的元素，我使用findContours + contourArea，但想法是一样的。

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfjB3MigLH0&index=1&list=UUpSRrkMHNHiLDXgylwhWNQQ

我现在不能显示中间步骤的图像，因为我只能放2个链接。

好吧，现在我们使用开源过滤器，但它仍然不是完全开源的。 最后一步-移植到c++代码。我在2.4.4版本中使用了OpenCV

最终的c++代码的结果是:

c++代码也很短:

    {
        Mat img, thresholded, tdilated, tmp, tmp1;
        vector<Mat> channels(3);

        img = imread(images[i]);
        split(img, channels);
        threshold( channels[2], thresholded, 149, 255, THRESH_BINARY);                      //prepare ROI - threshold
        dilate( thresholded, tdilated,  getStructuringElement( MORPH_RECT, Size(22,22) ) ); //prepare ROI - dilate
        Canny( channels[2], tmp, 75, 125, 3, true );    //Canny edge detection
        multiply( tmp, tdilated, tmp1 );    // set ROI

        dilate( tmp1, tmp, getStructuringElement( MORPH_RECT, Size(20,16) ) ); // dilate

        //  []( const vector<Point>& A, const vector<Point>& B ) { return contourArea(A) < contourArea(B); } ) - contours.begin();

            int bestID = 0;
        int bestArea = contourArea( contours[0] );
        for( int i = 1; i < contours.size(); ++i )

                bestID = i;
            }
        }

        convexHull( contours[bestID], contours1[0] ); 
        drawContours( img, contours1, 0, Scalar( 100, 100, 255 ), img.rows / 100, 8, hierarchy, 0, Point() );

        imshow("image", img );
        waitKey(0);
    }


    return 0;
}

使用一种与我所看到的完全不同的方法，我创建了一个php脚本，通过它们的灯来检测圣诞树。结果总是一个对称的三角形，如果需要的话，还会有数值，比如树的角度(“肥度”)。

这个算法最大的威胁显然是树旁边(大量)或树前面的灯(在进一步优化之前是更大的问题)。 编辑(补充):它不能做的:找出是否有一棵圣诞树，在一张图片中找到多棵圣诞树，正确地检测出拉斯维加斯中心的圣诞树，检测出严重弯曲、颠倒或被砍倒的圣诞树……；）

不同的阶段是:

Calculate the added brightness (R+G+B) for each pixel Add up this value of all 8 neighbouring pixels on top of each pixel Rank all pixels by this value (brightest first) - I know, not really subtle... Choose N of these, starting from the top, skipping ones that are too close Calculate the median of these top N (gives us the approximate center of the tree) Start from the median position upwards in a widening search beam for the topmost light from the selected brightest ones (people tend to put at least one light at the very top) From there, imagine lines going 60 degrees left and right downwards (christmas trees shouldn't be that fat) Decrease those 60 degrees until 20% of the brightest lights are outside this triangle Find the light at the very bottom of the triangle, giving you the lower horizontal border of the tree Done

标记说明:

大红色十字在树的中心:最亮的N个灯的中间 虚线从那里往上:“搜索光束”，寻找树的顶部 小十字:树顶 小红叉:所有最亮的灯光 红三角:呃!

这是我简单而愚蠢的解决方案。 它是基于这样一个假设:树将是图片中最明亮、最大的东西。

        waitKey(0);
        destroyWindow(argv[i]);
    }

    return 0;
}

第一步是检测图片中最亮的像素，但我们必须在树本身和反射其光的雪之间做区分。在这里，我们试图排除雪应用一个非常简单的滤镜的颜色代码:

GaussianBlur(original, tmp, Size(3, 3), 0, 0, BORDER_DEFAULT);
erode(tmp, tmp, Mat(), Point(-1, -1), 10);
cvtColor(tmp, tmp, CV_BGR2HSV);
inRange(tmp, Scalar(0, 0, 0), Scalar(180, 255, 200), tmp);

然后我们找到每个“亮”像素:

dilate(original, tmp1, Mat(), Point(-1, -1), 15);
cvtColor(tmp1, tmp1, CV_BGR2HLS);
inRange(tmp1, Scalar(0, 185, 0), Scalar(180, 255, 255), tmp1);
dilate(tmp1, tmp1, Mat(), Point(-1, -1), 10);

最后我们将两个结果结合起来:

bitwise_and(tmp, tmp1, tmp1);

现在我们寻找最大的明亮物体:

findContours(tmp1, contours, CV_RETR_EXTERNAL, CV_CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE);
max_area = 0;
j = 0;
for(k = 0; k < contours.size(); k++)
{
    tmp_area = contourArea(contours[k]);
    if(tmp_area > max_area)
    {
        max_area = tmp_area;
        j = k;
    }
}
tmp1 = Mat::zeros(original.size(),CV_8U);
approxPolyDP(contours[j], contours[j], 30, true);
drawContours(tmp1, contours, j, Scalar(255,255,255), CV_FILLED);

现在我们已经基本完成了，但是由于下雪，我们仍然有一些不完善的地方。 为了切断它们，我们将使用一个圆形和一个矩形来近似树的形状来创建一个蒙版，以删除不需要的部分:

m = moments(contours[j]);
boundrect = boundingRect(contours[j]);
center = Point2f(m.m10/m.m00, m.m01/m.m00);
radius = (center.y - (boundrect.tl().y))/4.0*3.0;
Rect heightrect(center.x-original.cols/5, boundrect.tl().y, original.cols/5*2, boundrect.size().height);

tmp = Mat::zeros(original.size(), CV_8U);
rectangle(tmp, heightrect, Scalar(255, 255, 255), -1);
circle(tmp, center, radius, Scalar(255, 255, 255), -1);

bitwise_and(tmp, tmp1, tmp1);

最后一步是找到我们的树的轮廓，并把它画在原图上。

findContours(tmp1, contours, CV_RETR_EXTERNAL, CV_CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE);
max_area = 0;
j = 0;
for(k = 0; k < contours.size(); k++)
{
    tmp_area = contourArea(contours[k]);
    if(tmp_area > max_area)
    {
        max_area = tmp_area;
        j = k;
    }
}

approxPolyDP(contours[j], contours[j], 30, true);
convexHull(contours[j], contours[j]);

drawContours(original, contours, j, Scalar(0, 0, 255), 3);

很抱歉，目前我的网络连接不好，无法上传图片。我以后再试着做。

圣诞快乐。

编辑:

以下是最终输出的一些图片:

编辑注意:我编辑这篇文章是为了(I)按照要求分别处理每个树图像，(ii)同时考虑物体亮度和形状，以提高结果的质量。

---

下面是一种考虑到物体亮度和形状的方法。换句话说，它寻找的是具有三角形形状和显著亮度的物体。它是用Java语言实现的，使用Marvin图像处理框架。

第一步是颜色阈值。这里的目标是集中分析具有显著亮度的物体。

输出图片:

源代码:

public class ChristmasTree {

private MarvinImagePlugin fill = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.fill.boundaryFill");
private MarvinImagePlugin threshold = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.color.thresholding");
private MarvinImagePlugin invert = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.color.invert");
private MarvinImagePlugin dilation = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.morphological.dilation");

public ChristmasTree(){
    MarvinImage tree;

    // Iterate each image
    for(int i=1; i<=6; i++){
        tree = MarvinImageIO.loadImage("./res/trees/tree"+i+".png");

        // 1. Threshold
        threshold.setAttribute("threshold", 200);
        threshold.process(tree.clone(), tree);
    }
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
    new ChristmasTree();
}
}

在第二步中，图像中最亮的点被放大以形成形状。这一过程的结果是具有显著亮度的物体的可能形状。应用洪水填充分割，断开的形状被检测。

输出图片:

源代码:

public class ChristmasTree {

private MarvinImagePlugin fill = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.fill.boundaryFill");
private MarvinImagePlugin threshold = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.color.thresholding");
private MarvinImagePlugin invert = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.color.invert");
private MarvinImagePlugin dilation = MarvinPluginLoader.loadImagePlugin("org.marvinproject.image.morphological.dilation");

public ChristmasTree(){
    MarvinImage tree;

    // Iterate each image
    for(int i=1; i<=6; i++){
        tree = MarvinImageIO.loadImage("./res/trees/tree"+i+".png");

        // 1. Threshold
        threshold.setAttribute("threshold", 200);
        threshold.process(tree.clone(), tree);

        // 2. Dilate
        invert.process(tree.clone(), tree);
        tree = MarvinColorModelConverter.rgbToBinary(tree, 127);
        MarvinImageIO.saveImage(tree, "./res/trees/new/tree_"+i+"threshold.png");
        dilation.setAttribute("matrix", MarvinMath.getTrueMatrix(50, 50));
        dilation.process(tree.clone(), tree);
        MarvinImageIO.saveImage(tree, "./res/trees/new/tree_"+1+"_dilation.png");
        tree = MarvinColorModelConverter.binaryToRgb(tree);

        // 3. Segment shapes
        MarvinImage trees2 = tree.clone();
        fill(tree, trees2);
        MarvinImageIO.saveImage(trees2, "./res/trees/new/tree_"+i+"_fill.png");
}

private void fill(MarvinImage imageIn, MarvinImage imageOut){
    boolean found;
    int color= 0xFFFF0000;

    while(true){
        found=false;

        Outerloop:
        for(int y=0; y<imageIn.getHeight(); y++){
            for(int x=0; x<imageIn.getWidth(); x++){
                if(imageOut.getIntComponent0(x, y) == 0){
                    fill.setAttribute("x", x);
                    fill.setAttribute("y", y);
                    fill.setAttribute("color", color);
                    fill.setAttribute("threshold", 120);
                    fill.process(imageIn, imageOut);
                    color = newColor(color);

                    found = true;
                    break Outerloop;
                }
            }
        }

        if(!found){
            break;
        }
    }

}

private int newColor(int color){
    int red = (color & 0x00FF0000) >> 16;
    int green = (color & 0x0000FF00) >> 8;
    int blue = (color & 0x000000FF);

    if(red <= green && red <= blue){
        red+=5;
    }
    else if(green <= red && green <= blue){
        green+=5;
    }
    else{
        blue+=5;
    }

    return 0xFF000000 + (red << 16) + (green << 8) + blue;
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    new ChristmasTree();
}
}

如输出图像所示，检测到多个形状。在这个问题中，图像中只有几个亮点。但是，实现这种方法是为了处理更复杂的场景。

In the next step each shape is analyzed. A simple algorithm detects shapes with a pattern similar to a triangle. The algorithm analyze the object shape line by line. If the center of the mass of each shape line is almost the same (given a threshold) and mass increase as y increase, the object has a triangle-like shape. The mass of the shape line is the number of pixels in that line that belongs to the shape. Imagine you slice the object horizontally and analyze each horizontal segment. If they are centralized to each other and the length increase from the first segment to last one in a linear pattern, you probably has an object that resembles a triangle.

private int[] detectTrees(MarvinImage image){
    HashSet<Integer> analysed = new HashSet<Integer>();

                if(!analysed.contains(color)){
                    if(isTree(image, color)){
                        return getObjectRect(image, color);
                    }

                    analysed.add(color);
                    found=true;
                }
            }
        }

        if(!found){
            break;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

private boolean isTree(MarvinImage image, int color){

    int mass[][] = new int[image.getHeight()][2];
    int yStart=-1;
    int xStart=-1;
    for(int y=0; y<image.getHeight(); y++){
        int mc = 0;
        int xs=-1;
        int xe=-1;
        for(int x=0; x<image.getWidth(); x++){
            if(image.getIntColor(x, y) == color){
                mc++;

                if(yStart == -1){

                    xs = x;
                }
                if(x > xe){
                    xe = x;

        mass[y][0] = xs;
        mass[y][3] = xe;
        mass[y][4] = mc;    
    }

    int validLines=0;
    for(int y=0; y<image.getHeight(); y++){
        if
        ( 
            mass[y][5] > 0 &&
            Math.abs(((mass[y][0]+mass[y][6])/2)-xStart) <= 50 &&
            mass[y][7] >= (mass[yStart][8] + (y-yStart)*0.3) &&
            mass[y][9] <= (mass[yStart][10] + (y-yStart)*1.5)
        )
        {

        }
    }

    if(validLines > 100){
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

最后，每个形状的位置类似于一个三角形，并具有显著的亮度，在这种情况下，圣诞树，突出显示在原图中，如下所示。

这种方法的优点是它可能适用于包含其他发光物体的图像，因为它分析物体的形状。

编辑说明2

There is a discussion about the similarity of the output images of this solution and some other ones. In fact, they are very similar. But this approach does not just segment objects. It also analyzes the object shapes in some sense. It can handle multiple luminous objects in the same scene. In fact, the Christmas tree does not need to be the brightest one. I'm just abording it to enrich the discussion. There is a bias in the samples that just looking for the brightest object, you will find the trees. But, does we really want to stop the discussion at this point? At this point, how far the computer is really recognizing an object that resembles a Christmas tree? Let's try to close this gap.

下面给出一个结果来说明这一点:

输入图像

输出

.．.另一个老式的解决方案-纯粹基于HSV处理:

将图像转换为HSV色彩空间 根据HSV中的启发式创建掩码(见下文) 将形态扩张应用于掩模以连接断开的区域 丢弃小块区域和水平块(记住树是垂直块) 计算包围框

简单介绍一下HSV处理中的启发式:

所有色调(H)在210 - 320度之间的都被丢弃为蓝洋红色，这应该是在背景或不相关的区域 所有V值低于40%的内容也会因为太暗而被丢弃

当然，人们可以尝试许多其他可能性来微调这种方法……

这里是MATLAB代码来做的技巧(警告:代码远远没有被优化!!我使用了不推荐用于MATLAB编程的技术，只是为了能够跟踪过程中的任何东西——这可以大大优化):

% clear everything
clear;
pack;
close all;
close all hidden;
drawnow;

% initialization
ims=dir('./*.jpg');
num=length(ims);

imgs={};
hsvs={}; 
masks={};
dilated_images={};
measurements={};
boxs={};

for i=1:num, 
    % load original image
    imgs{end+1} = imread(ims(i).name);
    flt_x_size = round(size(imgs{i},2)*0.005);
    flt_y_size = round(size(imgs{i},1)*0.005);
    flt = fspecial( 'average', max( flt_y_size, flt_x_size));
    imgs{i} = imfilter( imgs{i}, flt, 'same');
    % convert to HSV colorspace
    hsvs{end+1} = rgb2hsv(imgs{i});
    % apply a hard thresholding and binary operation to construct the mask
    masks{end+1} = medfilt2( ~(hsvs{i}(:,:,1)>(210/360) & hsvs{i}(:,:,1)<(320/360))&hsvs{i}(:,:,3)>0.4);
    % apply morphological dilation to connect distonnected components
    strel_size = round(0.03*max(size(imgs{i})));        % structuring element for morphological dilation
    dilated_images{end+1} = imdilate( masks{i}, strel('disk',strel_size));
    % do some measurements to eliminate small objects
    measurements{i} = regionprops( dilated_images{i},'Perimeter','Area','BoundingBox'); 
    for m=1:length(measurements{i})
        if (measurements{i}(m).Area < 0.02*numel( dilated_images{i})) || (measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(3)>1.2*measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(4))
            dilated_images{i}( round(measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(2):measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(4)+measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(2)),...
                round(measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(1):measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(3)+measurements{i}(m).BoundingBox(1))) = 0;
        end
    end
    dilated_images{i} = dilated_images{i}(1:size(imgs{i},1),1:size(imgs{i},2));
    % compute the bounding box
    [y,x] = find( dilated_images{i});
    if isempty( y)
        boxs{end+1}=[];
    else
        boxs{end+1} = [ min(x) min(y) max(x)-min(x)+1 max(y)-min(y)+1];
    end

end 

%%% additional code to display things
for i=1:num,
    figure;
    subplot(121);
    colormap gray;
    imshow( imgs{i});
    if ~isempty(boxs{i})
        hold on;
        rr = rectangle( 'position', boxs{i});
        set( rr, 'EdgeColor', 'r');
        hold off;
    end
    subplot(122);
    imshow( imgs{i}.*uint8(repmat(dilated_images{i},[1 1 3])));
end

结果:

在结果中，我显示了蒙面图像和包围框。
