Efficient Local Image Descriptors

详细

We consider descriptors in polar and log-polar coordinates that produce compact description of the image near interest points. These descriptors may be used to establish one-to-one correspondence between points in two images. Algorithms to compute these descriptors are described and the results of a numerical experiment comparing them with SIFT and SURF descriptors are reported. The numerical experiment suggests that the proposed descriptors are highly efficient for finding conjugate points in two images.
