Modality-Free Feature Detector and Descriptor for Multimodal Remote Sensing Image Registration

Image Registration in Airborne Remote Sensing

MICHAEL WILLIAMS FUNK. Image registration in airborne remote sensing. (Under the direction of DR. KALPATHI R. SUBRAMANIAN) The primary topic is an algorithm for image registration which is especially wellsuited to the types of images found in airborne remote sensing applications. A brief overview of the field of remote sensing is given, prior to discussion of the registration algorithm itself. ...

Remote sensing image registration via active contourmodel

Image registration is the process by which we determine a transformation that provides the most accurate match between two images. The search for the matching transformation can be automated with the use of a suitable metric, but it can be very time-consuming and tedious. In this paper, we introduce a registration algorithm that combines active contour segmentation together with mutual informat...

3D Multi-Modality Medical Image Registration Using Feature Space Clustering

In this paper, 3D voxel-similarity-based (VB) registration algorithms that optimize a feature-space clustering measure are proposed to combine the segmentation and registration process. We present a unifying de nition and a classi cation scheme for existing VB matching criteria and propose a new matching criterion: the entropy of the grey-level scatter-plot. This criterion requires no segmentat...

Remote Sensing Image Registration Using Multiple Image Features

Remote sensing image registration plays an important role in military and civilian fields, such as natural disaster damage assessment, military damage assessment and ground targets identification, etc. However, due to the ground relief variations and imaging viewpoint changes, non-rigid geometric distortion occurs between remote sensing images with different viewpoint, which further increases t...
