A Rapid Matching Algorithm Based on Filtering Feature Points

Article Preview

Abstract:

Matching feature points is an important step in image registration. For high- dimensional feature vector, the process of matching is very time-consuming, especially matching the vast amount of points. In the premise of ensuring the registration, filtering the candidate vectors to reduce the number of feature vectors, can effectively reduce the time matching the vectors. This paper presents a matching algorithm based on filtering the feature points on their characteristics of the corner feature. The matching method can effectively improve the matching speed, and can guarantee registration accuracy as well.
