TLDR
The matching of image and map features is performed rapidly by a new technique, called "chamfer matching", that compares the shapes of two collections of shape fragments, at a cost proportional to linear dimension, rather than area.Abstract:
Parametric correspondence is a technique for matching images to a three dimensional symbolic reference map. An analytic camera model is used to predict the location and appearance of landmarks in the image, generating a projection for an assumed viewpoint. Correspondence is achieved by adjusting the parameters of the camera model until the appearances of the landmarks optimally match a symbolic description extracted from the image.
The matching of image and map features is performed rapidly by a new technique, called "chamfer matching", that compares the shapes of two collections of shape fragments, at a cost proportional to linear dimension, rather than area. These two techniques permit the matching of spatially extensive features on the basis of shape, which reduces the risk of ambiguous matches and the dependence on viewing conditions inherent in conventional image based correlation matching.read more

A survey of image registration techniques
TL;DR: This paper organizes this material by establishing the relationship between the variations in the images and the type of registration techniques which can most appropriately be applied, and establishing a framework for understanding the merits and relationships between the wide variety of existing techniques.

Distance transformations in digital images
TL;DR: Six different distance transformations, both old and new, are used for a few different applications, which show both that the choice of distance transformation is important, and that any of the six transformations may be the right choice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Euclidean distance mapping
TL;DR: It is shown that skeletons can be produced by simple procedures and since these are based on Euclidean distances it is assumed that they are superior to skeletons based on d4−, d8−, and even octagonal metrics.

TL;DR: The time required to recognize that two perspective drawings portray objects of the same three-dimensional shape is found to be a linearly increasing function of the angular difference in the portrayed orientations of the two objects.

TL;DR: It is established that the Fourier series expansion is optimal and unique with respect to obtaining coefficients insensitive to starting point and the amplitudes are pure form invariants as well as are certain simple functions of phase angles.

The Representation and Matching of Pictorial Structures
M.A. Fischler,R.A. Elschlager +1 more
TL;DR: The primary problem dealt with in this paper is the specification of a descriptive scheme, and a metric on which to base the decision of "goodness" of matching or detection.

Distance functions on digital pictures
Azriel Rosenfeld,John L. Pfaltz +1 more
TL;DR: Algorithms for computing various functions on a digital picture which depend on the distance to a given subset of the picture, which involve local operations which are performed repeatedly, "in parallel”, on every picture element and its immediate neighbors are described.
