摘要
Background: Image registration is to produce an entire scene by aligning all the acquired image sequences. A registration algorithm is necessary to tolerance as much as possible for intensity and geometric variation among images. However, captured image views of real scene usually produce unexpected distortions. They are generally derived from the optic characteristics of image sensors or caused by the specific scenes and objects. Methods and Findings: An analytic registration algorithm considering the deformation is proposed for scenic image applications in this study. After extracting important features by the wavelet-based edge correlation method, an analytic registration approach is then proposed to achieve deformable and accurate matching of point sets. Finally, the registration accuracy is further refined to obtain subpixel precision by a feature-based Levenberg-Marquardt (FLM) method. It converges evidently faster than most other methods because of its feature-based characteristic. Conclusions: We validate the performance of proposed method by testing with synthetic and real image sequences acquired by a hand-held digital still camera (DSC) and in comparison with an optical flow-based motion technique in terms of the squared sum of intensity differences (SSD) and correlation coefficient (CC). The results indicate that the proposed method is satisfactory in the registration accuracy and quality of DSC images.
