A fast method for image mosaic based on SURF
Fei Lei, Wenxue Wang · 2014
This article presents a fast method for image mosaic based on SURF. The method includes three principal steps: Firstly, the feature points are extracted using SURF operator and the feature points are matched using BBF algorithm; Secondly, image registration is completed by estimating the converting relationship between images with the RANSAC and least squares method; Finally, seamless image fusion is obtained by using Gradating in-and-out amalgamation algorithm, which can reduce the effects of seams and illumination variations. The experimental results demonstrate that this method has superior quality of stitching.
