An Evaluation Methodology for Image Mosaicing Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several image mosaicing algorithms claiming to advance the state of the art have been proposed so far. Though sometimes improvements can be recognised without quantitative evidences, the importance of a principled methodology to compare different algorithms is essential as this discipline evolves. Which is the best? What means the best? How to ascertain the supremacy? To answer such questions, in this paper we propose an evaluation methodology including standard data sets, ground-truth information and performance metrics. We also compare three variants of a well-known mosaicing algorithm according to the proposed methodology.

Assessment approach for image mosaicing algorithms
In this paper, a novel quantitative assessment approach for image mosaicing algorithms is proposed by evaluating the quality of an output mosaic image and comparing with the input images. Five evaluation indices—entropy, clarity, registration error, peak signal-to-noise ratio, and structural similarity—are calculated and combined with the analytic hierarchy process for comprehensive assessment....
متن کاملImage Based Quantitative Mosaic Evaluation with Artificial Video
Interest towards image mosaicing has existed since the dawn of photography. Many automatic digital mosaicing methods have been developed, but unfortunately their evaluation has been only qualitative. Lack of generally approved measures and standard test data sets impedes comparison of the works by different research groups. For scientific evaluation, mosaic quality should be quantitatively meas...
متن کاملComparison of Different Feature Detection Techniques for Image Mosaicing
Image mosaicing is widely used in present computer vision applications. A considerable measure of important information is represented by the feature points in an image. Accurate extraction of these features is an essential part of image mosaicing as it can reduce misalignment errors in the final mosaic. A number of feature detection algorithms have been developed in recent years which can be u...
متن کاملA survey on image mosaicing techniques
Image Mosaicing is a method of assembling multiple overlapping images of the same scene into a larger image. The output of the image mosaic will be the union of two input images. Image-mosaicing algorithms are used for obtaining a mosaiced image. There are five steps used in image mosaicing which includes; Feature extraction, Image registration, Computing homography, Warping and Blending. Featu...
متن کاملEnhanced video indirect ophthalmoscopy (VIO) via robust mosaicing
Indirect ophthalmoscopy (IO) is the standard of care for evaluation of the neonatal retina. When recorded on video from a head-mounted camera, IO images have low quality and narrow Field of View (FOV). We present an image fusion methodology for converting a video IO recording into a single, high quality, wide-FOV mosaic that seamlessly blends the best frames in the video. To this end, we have d...
