Adaptive Randomized Algorithms for Mosaicing Systems

Frank Nielsen

Abstract:
Given a set of still images taken from a hand-held camera, we present a fast method for mosaicing them into a single blended picture. We design time- and memory- efficient still image mosaicing algorithms based on geometric point feature matchings that can handle both arbitrary rotations and large zoom factors. We discuss extensions of the methodology to related problems like the recovering of the epipolar geometry for 3d reconstruction and object recognition tasks.

Key words: registration, mosaicing, point pattern matching, bucketting
