A parametric template method and its application to robust matching

TLDR
A template-matching method in which a parametric template space is constructed from a given set of template images then quickly matched to a reference image that yields a high-precision estimation of the object position is proposed.
Abstract
We propose a template-matching method in which a parametric template space is constructed from a given set of template images then quickly matched to a reference image. In this method geometrical changes in an image object due to translation, rotation or scaling, and non-geometrical changes such as illumination variations or individual variation between objects are represented by template images in the parametric template space. The method also provides a subpixel matching scheme that yields a high-precision estimation of the object position. Experiments using real images have confirmed the effectiveness of the method.

Recognition by linear combinations of models

TL;DR: An approach to visual object recognition in which a 3D object is represented by the linear combination of 2D images of the object is proposed and it is shown that for objects with sharp edges as well as with smooth bounding contours, the set of possible images of a given object is embedded in a linear space spanned by a small number of views.
