Subpixel accuracy image registration by spectrum cancellation
S.P. Kim, Wei Su · IEEE International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing · 1993
An image registration algorithm which achieves subpixel accuracy using a frequency-domain technique is proposed. This approach is efficient compared with the conventional approaches based on interpolation or correlations in the spatial/frequency domain. This approach can achieve subpixel accuracy registration even when images contain aliasing errors due to undersampling. The FFTs (fast Fourier transforms) of the images have computational complexities smaller than the interpolation or convolution computations by orders of magnitude. The accuracy of the proposed approach is demonstrated through computer simulations for different types of images.>
