针对图像直线匹配的难题,提出了一种基于 Haar 小波响应的直线匹配算法。首先采用 Canny 算法进行直线提取;再通过统计直线的 Haar 小波响应矢量作为直线的主方向,避免了图像的旋转代价;通过构建六级高斯尺度因子,在相应的尺度空间中将直线邻域划分为互不重叠的子区域;再计算各子区域的 Haar 小波响应特征,统计加权的特征均值和方差作为直线描述子;并对其进行归一化;最后通过构造的级联特征匹配算法实现直线匹配。实验结果表明该算法能在遮挡、旋转、仿射和尺度变化条件下实现精确匹配,同时,该算法在红外与可见光图像中也能实现直线的有效匹配。
Abstract
In order to resolve the problem of image lines matching
a line matching algorithm based on Haar wavelet response is proposed.Firstly
lines are extracted by Canny algorithm.The statistical linear Haar-wavelet response vector is adopted as the main direction of the straight line
so as to avoid the rotation invariant.Secondly
by constructing six Gaussian scale factors
the neighborhood of straight line is divided into non-overlapping sub-region in the corresponding scale space. Then calculating response characteristics of Haar-wavelet
and using the normalized characteristics of the statistical weighted mean and variance as a linear descriptor.Finally
constructing the cascade feature descriptors is used to achieve wide baseline image matching.Experimental results show that the proposed method is robust to changes in occlusion
rotation
affine and scale.Meanwhile
the method can achieve stable line matching between the IR and visible images.
