Analysis of Relevant Features for Pollen Classification
Résumé
The correct classification of airborne pollen is relevant for medical treatment of allergies, and the regular manual process is costly and time consuming. Aiming at automatic processing, we propose a set of relevant image-based features for the recognition of top allergenic pollen taxa. The foundation of our proposal is the testing and evaluation of features that can properly describe pollen in terms of shape, texture, size and apertures. In this regard, a new flexible aperture detector is incorporated to the tests. The selected set is demonstrated to overcome the intra-class variance and inter-class similarity in a SVM classification scheme with a performance comparable to the state of the art procedures.
