Research on optimization of image fast feature point matching algorithm

摘要

Abstract The author studied the feature point extraction and matching based on BRISK and ORB algorithms, experimented with the advantages of both algorithms, and ascertained optimal pyramid layer and inter-layer scale parameters used in features extraction and matching for the same scale image and different scale images with BRISK and ORB algorithm, and analyzed the effectiveness of different parameters combinations on the accuracies of feature extraction and matching and proposed method to determine parameters based on the results. In addition, comparing with the traditional algorithm, using the optimal algorithm with the parameters combining Gaussian denoising, graying, and image sharpening, the ratio of feature points for detection improved 3%; the number of effective matching points increased by nearly 2%. Meanwhile, an algorithm experiment on UAV image mosaic was carried out. The transition of mosaic image color was more natural, and there was no clear mosaic joint with the stitching effect, which indicated that the optimized parameters and the extracted feature point pairs can be used for matrix operations and the algorithm is suitable for UAV image mosaic processing.
