A review on classification and comparison of automatic logo based document image retrieval methods and other applications

Abstract

In this paper we provided an effective categorization of vast number of methods, techniques, transforms, algorithms, approaches and schemes available for the purpose of logo detection in various image processing applications like Authenticity of documents, Security for information, Traffic Surveillance (Intelligent Transportation System), Pattern recognition, Marketing, Medical Imaging, Satellite imaging, Drones and Ocean Imaging. We have highlighted the mostly used Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) and Speed Up Robust Feature (SURF) Algorithms along with the comparison between these two (SIFT and SURF) algorithms.
