The art of oil painting reflects on society in the form of vision, while technology constantly explores and provides powerful possibilities to transform the society, which also includes the revolution in the way of art creation and even the way of thinking. The progress of science and technology often provides great changes for the creation of art, and also often changes people's way of appreciation and ideas. The oil painting image feature extraction and recognition is an important field in computer vision, which is widely used in video surveillance, human-computer interaction, sign language recognition and medical, health care. In the past few decades, feature extraction and recognition have focused on the multi-feature fusion method. However, the captured oil painting image is sensitive to light changes and background noise, which limits the robustness of feature extraction and recognition. Oil painting feature extraction is the basis of feature classification. Feature classification based on a single feature is easily affected by the inaccurate detection accuracy of the object area, object angle, scale change, noise interference and other factors, resulting in the reduction of classification accuracy. Therefore, we propose a novel multi-feature fusion method in merging information of heterogenous-view data for oil painting image feature extraction and recognition in this paper. It fuses the width-to-height ratio feature, rotation invariant uniform local binary mode feature and SIFT feature. Meanwhile, we adopt a modified faster RCNN to extract the semantic feature of oil painting. Then the feature is classified based on the support vector machine and K-nearest neighbor method. The experiment results show that the feature extraction method based on multi-feature fusion can significantly improve the average classification accuracy of oil painting and have high recognition efficiency.
