What do you mean by elephant(s)??

P.Salini 7-Jun-14 6:04am

The image may contain elephants, human or train. From those i need to get the images which contains only elephants. My question is, Is there a way to achieve this?

I tried edge detection and template matching techniques but not able to detect properly

Then you need to refine your code. There is no simple way to determine the shape of an object by programming.

Thank you for the reply, can you tell me what are the refining techniques that can be used, so that I can study and try to implement.

Sorry, but image detection is a large subject, you need to find tutorials and libraries to study for yourself.

Solution 1

Few tutorials which can help you.

1. Detecting some simple shapes in images[^]
2. Detect object from image based on object color by C#[^]
3. Shape recognition using C# and AForge[^]

This is not a coding problem, it is the area of machine learning.
How do you know an elephant is an elephant? You have seen one before and was told that that was how an elephant looked. Right?
How do you expect a computer to do the same thing. Yes, it has to learn like what you did. You have to train the computer to recognize images of different animal types, so that when it sees new image it can compare it with those images that it has seen and memorized and to determine its type based on some similarity measures.
How to train a computer to achieve this, that is the area of machine learning, a field of artificial intelligence, which is beyond the scope of this quick answers forum. To learn more, you can ask google on topics like artificial neural networks, support vector machine, self-organizing map etc.
