Description

create_class_lut_svmcreate_class_lut_svmCreateClassLutSvmcreate_class_lut_svmCreateClassLutSvmCreateClassLutSvm generates a look-up table (LUT) ClassLUTHandleClassLUTHandleClassLUTHandleClassLUTHandleClassLUTHandleclassLUTHandle using the data of a trained Support-Vector-Machine (SVM) SVMHandleSVMHandleSVMHandleSVMHandleSVMHandleSVMHandle to classify multi-channel byte images. By using this SVM-based LUT classifier the operator classify_image_class_svmclassify_image_class_svmClassifyImageClassSvmclassify_image_class_svmClassifyImageClassSvmClassifyImageClassSvm of the subsequent classification can be replaced by the operator classify_image_class_lutclassify_image_class_lutClassifyImageClassLutclassify_image_class_lutClassifyImageClassLutClassifyImageClassLut. The classification gets a major speed-up, because the estimation of the class in every image point is no longer necessary since every possible response of the SVM is stored in the LUT. For the generation of the LUT, the parameters NumFeatures, Preprocessing, and NumComponents defined in the earlier called operator create_class_svmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmCreateClassSvm are important. In NumFeatures, the number of image channels the images must have to be classified is defined. By using the Preprocessing (see create_class_svmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmCreateClassSvm) the number of image channels can be transformed to NumComponents. NumComponents defines the length of the feature vector, which the classifier classify_class_svmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmClassifyClassSvm handles internally. Because of performance and disk space, the LUT is restricted to be maximal 3-dimensional. Since it replaces the operator classify_class_svmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmClassifyClassSvm, NumComponents <= 3 must hold. If there is no preprocessing that reduces the number of image channels (NumFeatures = NumComponents), all possible pixel values, which can occur in a byte image, are classified with classify_class_svmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmClassifyClassSvm. The returned classes are stored in the LUT. If there is a preprocessing that reduces the number of image channels (NumFeatures > NumComponents), the preprocessing parameters of the SVM are stored in a separate structure of the LUT. To create the LUT, all transformed pixel values are classified with classify_class_svmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmclassify_class_svmClassifyClassSvmClassifyClassSvm. The returned classes are stored in the LUT. Because of the discretization of the LUT, the accuracy of the LUT classifier could become lower than the accuracy of classify_image_class_svmclassify_image_class_svmClassifyImageClassSvmclassify_image_class_svmClassifyImageClassSvmClassifyImageClassSvm. With 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" and 'class_selection'"class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection" the accuracy of the classification, the required storage, and the runtime needed to create the LUT can be controlled.

The following parameters of the SVM-based LUT classifier can be set with GenParamNameGenParamNameGenParamNameGenParamNameGenParamNamegenParamName and GenParamValueGenParamValueGenParamValueGenParamValueGenParamValuegenParamValue:

'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth":

Number of bits used from the pixels. It controls the storage requirement of the LUT classifier and is bounded by the bit depth of the image ('bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" <= 8). If the bit depth of the LUT is smaller ('bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" < 8), the classes of multiple pixel combinations will be mapped to the same LUT entry, which can result in a lower accuracy for the classification. One of these clusters contains pixel combinations, where NumComponents denotes the dimension of the LUT, which is specified in create_class_svmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmCreateClassSvm. For example, for 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" = 7, NumComponents = 3, the classes of 8 pixel combinations are mapped in the same LUT entry. The LUT requires at most bytes of storage. For example, for NumComponents = 3, 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" = 8 and NumClasses < 16 (specified in create_class_svmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmCreateClassSvm), the LUT requires 8 MB of storage with internal storage optimization. If NumClasses = 1, the LUT requires only 2 MB of storage by using the full bit depth of the LUT. The runtime for the classification in classify_image_class_lutclassify_image_class_lutClassifyImageClassLutclassify_image_class_lutClassifyImageClassLutClassifyImageClassLut becomes minimal if the LUT fits into the cache. The default value is 8, typical values are [6,7,8]. Restrictions: 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" >= 1, 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" <= 8.

'class_selection'"class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection":

Method for the class selection for the LUT. Can be modified to control the accuracy and the runtime needed to create the LUT classifier. The value in 'class_selection'"class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection" is ignored if the bit depth of the LUT is maximal, thus 'bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" = 8 holds. If the bit depth of the LUT is smaller ('bit_depth'"bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth""bit_depth" < 8), the classes of multiple pixel combinations will be mapped to the same LUT entry. One of these clusters contains pixel combinations, where NumComponents denotes the dimension of the LUT, which is specified in create_class_svmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmcreate_class_svmCreateClassSvmCreateClassSvm. By choosing 'class_selection'"class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection" = 'best'"best""best""best""best""best", the class that appears most often in the cluster is stored in the LUT. For 'class_selection'"class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection""class_selection" = 'fast'"fast""fast""fast""fast""fast", only one pixel of the cluster, i.e., the pixel with the smallest value (component-wise), is classified. The returned class is stored in the LUT. In this case, the accuracy of the subsequent classification could become lower. On the other hand, the runtime needed to create the LUT can be reduced, which is proportional to the maximal needed storage of the LUT, which is defined with . The default value is 'fast'"fast""fast""fast""fast""fast", possible values are ['fast'"fast""fast""fast""fast""fast", 'best'"best""best""best""best""best"].

Parallelization

This operator returns a handle. Note that the state of an instance of this handle type may be changed by specific operators even though the handle is used as an input parameter by those operators.
