- NMI (X, Y) MI (X, Y) / (H (X) + H (Y))
- NMI (X, Y) H (f (X)) / (H (X) + H (f (X)))
- the image detection method according to the invention is based on the definitions and properties which have just been described.
- the normalized gray level histogram of an image I obtained by calculating the histogram of the values taken by I (x) for x taking all the possible positions in the image, is a distribution of discrete probabilities allowing by extension to define “the entropy of an image”, see paragraph 1.1.
- the normalized joint histogram of the gray levels of two images II and 12 of the same dimension obtained by calculating the two-dimensional histogram of the values taken by (Il (x), 12 (x)) for x taking all the possible positions in image II, is a two-dimensional probability distribution allowing by extension to define respectively “the entropy joined between two images”, “l 'conditional entropy between two images', 'mutual information between two images', 'normalized mutual information between two images', see respectively paragraphs 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5
- the comparison distance used to carry out detections is NMI (X, Y), where X and Y are two images.
- the comparison distance NMI (X, Y) is compared to a predetermined threshold, fixed in advance. If the distance between the current image, candidate for detection, and the reference image is less than this threshold, the current image is declared "recognized” or detected.
- the image to be detected is the exact copy of the reference image.
- the image to be detected has generally passed through a noisy transmission channel, radio waves, television receiver, satellite, video recorder, etc. This noise can be expressed either by high frequency noise in the image but also by a low frequency distortion of the signal, change in contrast, brightness, saturation, etc.
- the distance NMI (X, Y) has the advantage of not directly comparing the pixel values of two images (a simple approach used for example in a correlation distance but unusable in practice because of its lack of robustness).
- the distance NMI (X, Y) has the advantage of calculating the capacity to predict the value of pixels of X knowing those of Y, without any particular hypothesis on the nature of the photometric transformation linking X and Y.
- the distance NMI (X, Y) remains minimal if X and Y correspond geometrically, even if their intensity surfaces are not directly superimposable. Detection is therefore extremely robust to photometric changes.
