HOG简介

HOG全称：方向梯度直方图（Histogram of Oriented Gradient），发表于2005年的CVPR，是一种图像特征提取算法，和SVM分类器结合应用于行人检测领域。HOG通过计算图像中每个像素的梯度的大小和方向，来获取图像的梯度特征，是一种特征描述子。

HOG计算步骤

1.对输入图像进行灰度化
2.利用gamma校正法对图像进行颜色空间归一化；
3.计算图像中每个像素的梯度大小和方向；
4.将图像划分cells，计算每个cell内的梯度直方图；
5.将没几个cell组成一个block，计算每个block内的梯度特征；
6.将图像中所有block的梯度特征组合起来就得到了图像的特征描述子；
7.将图像特征输入分类器进行分类。

HOG参数计算

1.block个数计算
假设图像大小为128x128，block大小为16x16， block stride为8x8
则block个数 = ((128-16)/8+1) x ((128-16)/8 +1) = 15x15 = 225
2.每个block内的cell个数计算
假设cell size为8x8
则cell个数 = (16x16) / (8x8) = 4
3.每张图特征维度
假设直方图等级数 bins = 9
则每张图的特征维度 = 225 x 4 x 9 = 8100

HOG代码实现

1.基于python的scikit-image库提供了HOG特征提取的接口：

from skimage import feature as ft
features = ft.hog(image,  # input imageorientations=ori,  # number of binspixels_per_cell=ppc, # pixel per cellcells_per_block=cpb, # cells per blcokblock_norm = 'L1', #  block norm : str {‘L1’, ‘L1-sqrt’, ‘L2’, ‘L2-Hys’}transform_sqrt = True, # power law compression (also known as gamma correction)feature_vector=True, # flatten the final vectorsvisualise=False) # return HOG map

应用示例：

from skimage.feature import hog
gray = rgb2gray(image) / 255.0
fd = hog(gray, orientations=12, block_norm='L1', pixels_per_cell=[10, 10], cells_per_block=[4, 4], visualize=False, transform_sqrt=True)
