Abstract

At present, the image stitching algorithm based on classical surf features is facing new challenges in the processing of UAV images. In order to improve the efficiency of aerial image stitching, a fast feature extraction and matching algorithm is proposed. At the feature extraction link, a local differential binary algorithm is proposed to describe the feature, which reduces the feature dimension compared with SURF descriptor while not reducing the feature differentiation. A local sensitive hash search algorithm is proposed to replace the kd tree search algorithm in feature matching, which improves the efficiency of nearest neighbor feature matching. The test results show that compared with the nearest neighbor matching algorithm based on SURF descriptor and kd tree search algorithm, the feature matching efficiency of this algorithm is obviously improved, and the matching accuracy is also improved. It is more suitable for feature-based UAV aerial image rapid mapping.
