Redundant Keypoint Elimination Using Redundancy Index on Basic SIFT Algorithm
Abstract: ABSTRACT Matching features across different images is a common problem in computer vision. For the images of different scales and rotations, there is the need of scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT). SIFT identifies the distinctive keypoints that are invariant to location, scale, rotation, robust to affine transformations (changes in scale, rotation, shear, and position) and changes in illumination, which are usable for object recognition. SIFT algorithm includes two main stages: feature …
