Image registration using robust M-estimators
In this paper, a method for robust image registration based on M-estimator Correlation Coefficient (MCC) is presented. A real valued correlation mask function is computed using Huber and Tukey’s robust statistics and is used as a similarity measure for registering image windows. The mask function suppresses the influence of outlier points and makes the registration algorithm robust to noisy pix...
متن کاملRobust Covariance Estimators Based on Information Divergences and Riemannian Manifold
This paper proposes a class of covariance estimators based on information divergences in heterogeneous environments. In particular, the problem of covariance estimation is reformulated on the Riemannian manifold of Hermitian positive-definite (HPD) matrices. The means associated with information divergences are derived and used as the estimators. Without resorting to the complete knowledge of t...
متن کاملRobust antenna array processing using M-estimators of pseudo-covariance
This paper addresses the problem of antenna array processing in non-Gaussian noise and interference conditions. Such conditions arise due to man-made interference in indoor and outdoor mobile communication channels as well as in military communications. In this paper M -estimators of the array (pseudo-)covariance matrix based upon complex data set are introduced. Estimates of the noise and sign...
متن کاملAdaptive M-Estimators For Robust Covariance Estimation
Robust covariance estimates are required in many applications. Here, a promising adaptive robust scale estimator is extended to this problem and compared to other robust estimators. Often the performance analysis of covariance estimators is performed from the perspective of the final application. However, different applications have different requirements, hence we make a comparison based on so...
متن کاملRobust Regression with Projection Based M-estimators
The robust regression techniques in the RANSAC family are popular today in computer vision, but their performance depends on a user supplied threshold. We eliminate this drawback of RANSAC by reformulating another robust method, the M-estimator, as a projection pursuit optimization problem. The projection based pbM-estimator automatically derives the threshold from univariate kernel density est...
