Parallel Equilibrium Difference Local Binary Pattern Using GPU
摘要
In the realm of computer vision and image processing, local pattern descriptors play a crucial role in extracting discriminative features for various applications. The Equilibrium Difference Local Binary Pattern (ED-LBP) is a recently proposed method that combines color information with local binary patterns, enhancing its robustness and discriminative power. However, the computational demands of ED-LBP is significantly high due to additional mathematical constraints, especially when processing high-resolution images. In this paper, the implementation of ED-LBP is parallelized to improve computational efficiency and enable real-time processing of large-scale image datasets. Our approach leverages the power of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), resulting in a significant reduction in feature extraction time without compromising the accuracy of the ED-LBP algorithm.
