Image registration has always been an important research topic. This paper proposes a novel method of constructing descriptors called the histogram of oriented local binary pattern descriptor (HOLBP) for fast and robust matching. There are three new components in our algorithm. First, we redefined the gradient and angle calculation template to make it more sensitive to edge information. Second, we proposed a new construction method of the HOLBP descriptor and improved the traditional local binary pattern (LBP) computation template. Third, the principle of uniform rotation-invariant LBP was applied to add 10-dimensional gradient direction information to form a 138-dimension HOLBP descriptor vector. The experimental results showed that our method is very stable in terms of accuracy and computational time for different test images.

Image registration is widely used in applications for mapping one image to another. As it is often formulated as a point matching problem, in this paper, a novel method, called the Geometric Inference (GI) algorithm, is proposed for feature point based image registration. Firstly, according to affine distance invariant, the global geometric relationship between collinear correspondences is deduced and used for collinear point matching. Secondly, utilizing affine area invariant, geometric relationship between noncollinear correspondences is inferred and used for noncollinear point matching. Finally, the best affine transformation can be discovered from the correspondences composed of the collinear and noncollinear corresponding point pairs. Experiments on synthesized and real data demonstrate that GI is well-adapt to image registration as it is fast and robust to missing points, outliers, and noise.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to provide meaningful information about sponsorship management in state-owned enterprises.Design/methodology/approachQualitative and quantitative data from Germany are analyzed in a case study approach using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (Fs/QCA)—an analytic method relevant for describing configurational patterns of causal factors.FindingsThe case study of sponsorships from state-owned enterprises in Germany reveals four alternative configurations of top-management support, sponsee prominence, standardized processes, and sponsorship leverage explaining sponsor satisfaction.Originality/valueThe paper combines two underrepresented but important aspects of sponsorship research, i.e. sponsorship management in state-owned enterprises, in an empirical study. Further, present study adds to sponsorship literature by pointing to fuzzy-set Fs/QCA as a relatively novel method that can capture the phenomenon of complex causality.

Brain science research often requires accurate localization and quantitative analysis of neuronal activity in different brain regions. The premise of related analysis is to determine the brain region of each site on the brain slice by referring to the Allen Reference Atlas (ARA), namely the regional localization of the brain slice. The image registration methodology can be used to solve the problem of regional localization. However, the conventional multi-modal image registration method is not satisfactory because of the complexity of modality between the brain slice and the ARA. Inspired by the idea that people can automatically ignore noise and establish correspondence based on key regions, we proposed a novel method known as the Joint Enhancement of Multimodal Information (JEMI) network, which is based on a symmetric encoder–decoder. In this way, the brain slice and the ARA are converted into a segmentation map with unified modality, which greatly reduces the difficulty of registration. Furthermore, combined with the diffeomorphic registration algorithm, the existing topological structure was preserved. The results indicate that, compared with the existing methods, the method proposed in this study can effectively overcome the influence of non-unified modal images and achieve accurate and rapid localization of the brain slice.
