Laguerre-Gauss Preprocessing: Line Profiles as Image Features for Aerial Images Classification

An image preprocessing methodology based on Fourier analysis together with the Laguerre-Gauss Spatial Filter is proposed. This is an alternative to obtain features from aerial images that reduces the feature space significantly, preserving enough information for classification tasks. Experiments on a challenging data set of aerial images show that it is possible to learn a robust classifier from this transformed and smaller feature space using simple models, with similar performance to the complete feature space and more complex models.
