چکیده

A method for seamless stitching of images with photometric inconsistencies in the overlapping region is presented. The method is based on generating a set of stitched gradients from the gradients of the input images and then reconstructing the mosaic image using the Haar wavelet integration technique of [11], [12]. This O(N) reconstruction technique is based on obtaining the Haar wavelet decomposition of the mosaic image directly from the stitched gradients and then using Haar synthesis to obtain the mosaic image. The Haar synthesis step includes a Poisson smoother at each resolution level leading to results without visual artifacts despite the non conservative nature of the stitched gradient field. Experimental results illustrate the method and show that it leads to seamless mosaic images despite intensity differences in the overlap region of the input images.

Image Stitching of the Computed Radiology images Using a Pixel-Based Approach

In this paper, a method for automatic stitching of radiology images based on pixel features has been presented. In this method, according to the smooth texture of radiological images and in order to increase the number of the extracted features after quality enhancement of initial radiology images, 45 degree isotropic mask is applied to each radiology image to observe the image details. After t...

Panoramic Image Stitching

This thesis investigates the panoramic image stitching problem in computer vision area. The panoramic image stitching algorithms are divided into image alignment and image stitching approaches. The former can find the correspondence relationships among images with certain degrees of overlap, while the latter takes the correspondence relationships estimated by the registration algorithm and uses...

Image Alignment and Stitching: A Tutorial1

This tutorial reviews image alignment and image stitching algorithms. Image alignment (registration) algorithms can discover the large-scale (parametric) correspondence relationships among images with varying degrees of overlap. They are ideally suited for applications such as video stabilization, summarization, and the creation of large-scale panoramic photographs. Image stitching algorithms t...

Seamless Image Stitching in the Gradient Domain

Image stitching is used to combine several individual images having some overlap into a composite image. The quality of image stitching is measured by the similarity of the stitched image to each of the input images, and by the visibility of the seam between the stitched images. In order to define and get the best possible stitching, we introduce several formal cost functions for the evaluation...

Use of Autostitch for automatic stitching of microscope images.

Image stitching is the process of combining multiple images to produce a panorama or larger image. In many biomedical studies, including those of cancer and infection, the use of this approach is highly desirable in order to acquire large areas of certain structures or whole sections, while retaining microscopic resolution. In this study, we describe the application of Autostitch, viz. software...
