Class PolygonEvolution

java.lang.Object

de.lmu.ifi.dbs.jfeaturelib.features.AbstractFeatureDescriptor

de.lmu.ifi.dbs.jfeaturelib.shapeFeatures.PolygonEvolution

All Implemented Interfaces:

Descriptor, FeatureDescriptor

public class PolygonEvolution
extends AbstractFeatureDescriptor

Computes a distance shape feature as Array List containing the x and y coordinates from the points generating the polygon. This method is described in "Yang Mingqiang, Kpalma Kidiyo and Ronsin Joseph (2008). A Survey of Shape Feature Extraction Techniques, Pattern Recognition Techniques, Technology and Applications, Peng-Yeng Yin (Ed.), ISBN: 978-953-7619-24-4, InTech, Available from: http://www.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/a_survey_of_shape_feature_extraction_techniques".

Method Detail

setProperties

public void setProperties(LibProperties properties)

Description copied from interface: FeatureDescriptor

Injects the properties class that can be used to retrieve several properties.

Specified by:

setProperties in interface FeatureDescriptor

Overrides:

setProperties in class AbstractFeatureDescriptor

run

public void run(ij.process.ImageProcessor ip)

Description copied from interface: Descriptor

Start processing of this algorithm on the given image processor. Keep in mind that if the imageProcessor is changed, Supports.NoChanges must not be set. This is also the case even if only ImageProcessor.snapshot() is used.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Description copied from interface: FeatureDescriptor

Returns a short plain Text description about the Descriptor and the semantics of the double array obtained from FeatureDescriptor.getFeatures(). May return null if no description is implemented - even though this should be avoided by any means.

Returns:

semantic description of getFeatures or null.
