Matching Image with Multiple Local Features
Yudong Cao, Honggang Zhang, Yanyan Gao, Xiaojun Xu, Jun Hai Guo · 2010
In this paper, we present the fusional feature composed of Affine-SIFT, MSER and color moment invariants. The fusional feature is more robust and distinctive than a single local feature. Instead of adding three local features together simply, an efficient two-level matching strategy is devised with the fusional feature, which speeds up the establishment of the local correspondences. To remove partial false positives, an affine transformation is estimated with the weighted RANSAC which decreases iteration times. The experimental results show that our approach can achieve more accurate correspondence. We prospect to apply the fusional feature and match strategy to image retrieval in the end.
