Estimation of Local Image Orientation
A number of methods have been proposed for computing or estimating an orientation representation from image data. These include
- Quadrature filter based methods
- The structure tensor
- Using a local polynomial approximation
- The Energy tensor
- The Boundary tensor
The first approach can be used both for the double angle representation (only 2D images) and the tensor representation, and the other methods compute a tensor representation of local orientation.

Famous quotes containing the words estimation, local, image and/or orientation:
“No man ever stood lower in my estimation for having a patch in his clothes; yet I am sure that there is greater anxiety, commonly, to have fashionable, or at least clean and unpatched clothes, than to have a sound conscience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Wags try to invent new stories to tell about the legislature, and end by telling the old one about the senator who explained his unaccustomed possession of a large roll of bills by saying that someone pushed it over the transom while he slept. The expression “It came over the transom,” to explain any unusual good fortune, is part of local folklore.”

“What is a child, monsieur, but the image of two beings, the fruit of two sentiments spontaneously blended?”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“Every orientation presupposes a disorientation.”
