Abstract:

Limited by the initial input images, traditional image registration technology cannot meet people’s needs. Nowadays parallax image registration has gradually become a research focus in image mosaic technology. The difficulty and general flow of parallax image registration are introduced based on the principle of parallax formation. And the feature-based parallax image registration technology is mainly introduced. The research results of parallax image registration in recent years are summarized and expanded from the image registration based on multi-plane alignment, the image registration based on mesh deformation and the seam-driven image registration. Through summarizing and comparing the algorithm ideas, characteristics and limitations of various typical parallax image registration algorithms, a systematic overview of the research status in this field is provided. Furthermore, the future research directions of parallax image registration are also prospected.
