Point pattern matchingisanimportantproblem inthefieldsofcomputervision and patternrecognition.In this paper,new algorithms based onirreducible matrix andrelativeinvariantfor matchingtwosets ofpoints withthe same cardinality are proposed.Theirfundamentalideaistransformingthetwo dimensionalpointsets with n points intothe vectorsin n dimensional space. Considering these vectors as one dimensional point patterns,these new algorithms aim atreducingthe point matching problem to thatofsorting vectorsin n dimensionalspace aslong asthe sensornoise does notalterthe order ofthe elementsinthe vectors.Theoreticalanalysis and simulationresults show thatthe new algorithms are effective .
