Abstract

An affine invariant interest point detector named here as Harris-Bessel detector employing Bessel filters is proposed in this paper. The Harris-Bessel detector is applied on the images a well-known database in the literature. Our numerical results indicate that this detector is competitive and has better repeatability and localization measures than those of the affine invariant Harris-Laplace interest point detector. We also numerically demonstrate in this paper that the Harris-Bessel detector is affine invariant and is in average 450 times faster than the affine invariant Harris-Laplace detector for the images of the database.
