LOCAL TILE-BASED REGISTRATION AND GLOBAL PLACEMENT FOR STITCHING

摘要

Techniques are provided for stitching tile images. A local registration can be performed to determine spatial relationships between pairs of adjacent tile images, in which the spatial relationships may be determined using normalized cross correlation (NCC) scores computed within a multi-resolution framework. A global placement can be performed to position all scanned tile images relative to one another. The global placement is determined with weighted least squares utilizing the determined spatial relationships between all adjacent greyscale tile images and the NCC scores as weights.
