The Review of Algorithms to Correct Barrel Distortion Image

Abstract:

Aiming at solving the problem of correcting barrel distortion of image, this paper concluded the common correction algorithms into three types which include Affine Transformation, Two Degree Polynomial Transformation and Polar Coordinate Transformation, and introduced the basic theory of each of their representative algorithm. Then, analyzed and compared the advantages and disadvantages of them according to the correction experiments. At last, pointed out the research directions and difficulties of this field. In conclusion, Polar Coordinate Transformation is the most appropriate method to correct barrel distortion image, and the improved algorithm based on Polar Coordinate Transformation is more flexible to work out current difficulties of this aspect.
