Accurate geopositioning of optical satellite imagery is a fundamental step for many photogrammetric applications. Considering the imaging principle and data processing manner, SAR satellites can achieve high geopositioning accuracy. Therefore, SAR data can be a reliable source for providing control information in the orientation of optical satellite images. This paper proposes a practical solution for an accurate orientation of optical satellite images using SAR reference images to take advantage of the merits of SAR data. Firstly, we propose an accurate and robust multimodal image matching method to match the SAR and optical satellite images. This approach includes the development of a new structural-based multimodal applicable feature descriptor that employs angle-weighted oriented gradients (AWOGs) and the utilization of a three-dimensional phase correlation similarity measure. Secondly, we put forward a general optical satellite imagery orientation framework based on multiple SAR reference images, which uses the matches of the SAR and optical satellite images as virtual control points. A large number of experiments not only demonstrate the superiority of the proposed matching method compared to the state-of-the-art methods but also prove the effectiveness of the proposed orientation framework. In particular, the matching performance is improved by about 17% compared with the latest multimodal image matching method, namely, CFOG, and the geopositioning accuracy of optical satellite images is improved, from more than 200 to around 8 m.

In this paper, the idea identify the hook on investment casting shell line based on machine vision has been proposed. According to the characteristic of the hook, we do the image acquisition and preprocessing, we adopt Hough transform to narrow the target range, and find the target area based on the method combining the level projection and vertical projection, use feature matching method SIFT to do the image matching. Finally, we get the space information of the target area of the hook.

needs a solid validation that has verification and matching uploaded images. To solve this problem, this paper implementing a detection model using Faster R-CNN and a matching method using ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF) and KNN-BFM (K-Nearest Neighbor Brute Force Matcher). The goal of the implementations is to reach both an 80% mark of accuracy and prove matching using ORB only can be a replaced OCR technique. The implementation accuracy results in the detection model reach mAP (Mean Average Precision) of 94%. But, the matching process only achieves an accuracy of 43,46%. The matching process using only image feature matching underperforms the previous OCR technique but improves processing time from 4510ms to 60m). Image matching accuracy has proven to increase by using a high-quality dan high quantity dataset, extracting features on the important area of EKTP card images.


Automatic image registration (IR) is very challenging and very important in the field of hyperspectral remote sensing data. Efficient autonomous IR method is needed with high precision, fast, and robust. A key operation of IR is to align the multiple images in single co-ordinate system for extracting and identifying variation between images considered. In this paper, presented a feature descriptor by combining features from both Feature from Accelerated Segment Test (FAST) and Binary Robust Invariant Scalable Key point (BRISK). The proposed hybrid invariant local features (HILF) descriptor extract useful and similar feature sets from reference and source images. The feature matching method allows finding precise relationship or matching among two feature sets. An experimental analysis described the outcome BRISK, FASK and proposed HILF in terms of inliers ratio and repeatability evaluation metrics.

Abstract. When adopting the matching method of the least squares image based on object-patch to match tilted images, problems like the low degree of connection points for images with the discontinuity of depth or the discrepancy in elevation or low availability of aerotriangulation points would frequently appear. To address such problems, a tilted-image-matching algorithm based on an adaptive initial object-patch is proposed by this paper. By means of the existing initial values of the interior and exterior orientation elements of the tilted image and the information of object points generated in the matching process, the algorithm takes advantage of the method of multi-patch forward intersection and object variance partition so as to adaptively calculate the elevation of the object-patch and the initial value of the normal vector direction angle. Furthermore, this algorithm aims to solve the problem of difficulties in matching the tilted image with its corresponding points brought about by the low accuracy of the initial value of the tilted image when adopting the matching method of the least squares image based on object-patch to match the tilted image with high discrepancy in elevation. We adopt the algorithm as proposed in this paper and the least squares image matching method in which the initial state of the object-patch is horizontal to the object-patch respectively to conduct the verification process of comparing and matching two groups of tilted images. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm as proposed in this paper is verified by the testing results.
