Abstract
Replacing photographic recording by electronic processing has some obvious advantages. An algorithm used for electronic speckle pattern photography is presented, and the reliability and accuracy is analyzed by using computer-generated speckle patterns. The algorithm is based on a two-dimensional discrete cross correlation between subimages from different images. Subpixel accuracy is obtained by a Fourier series expansion of the discrete correlation surface. The accuracy of the algorithm was found to vary in proportion to sigma/n(1 - delta)(2), where sigma is the speckle size, n is the subimage size, and delta is the amount of decorrelation, with negligible systematic errors. For typical values the uncertainty in the displacement is approximately 0.05 pixels. The uncertainty is found to increase with increased displacement gradients.

Equivalence of digital image correlation criteria for pattern matching.

TL;DR: This paper focuses on three robust and most widely used correlation criteria, i.e., a zero-mean normalized cross-correlation (ZNCC) criterion, a Zero normalized sum of squared difference criterion, and a parametric sum of squares difference (PSSD(ab) criterion with two additional unknown parameters, since they are insensitive to the scale and offset changes of the target subset intensity and have been highly recommended for practical use in literature.
