In the field of object recognition, the SIFT feature is known to be a very successful local invariant descriptor and has wide application in different domains. However it also has some limitations, for example, in the case of facial illumination variation or under large tilt angle, the identification rate of the SIFT algorithm drops quickly. In order to reduce the probability of mismatching pairs, and improve the matching efficiency of SIFT algorithm, this paper proposes a novel feature matching algorithm. The basic idea is taking the successful-matched SIFT feature points as the training samples to establish a space mapping model based on BP neural network. Then, with the help of this model, the estimated coordinate of the corresponding SIFT feature point in the candidate image is predicted. Finally search the possible matching points around the coordinate. The experiment results show that using the prediction model, the number of mismatching points can be reduced effectively and the number of correct matching pairs increases at the same time

For solving the low matching efficiency problem due to high dimension of eigenvector in SIFT, a SIFT feature matching algorithm based on semi-variance function is proposed. For each feature point in image SIFT feature point zone, m beams are generated by using the position of the feature point as center and the orientation of the feature point as start direction. The image semi-variance function value of each beam, which is treated as SIFT value of eigenvector descriptor, is used in the algorithm aiming at reducing the dimension of eigenvector and improving image matching efficiency. The experiment result shows that the matching rate of this algorithm is higher, the matching time of this algorithm is less.

Stereo feature matching is a technique that finds an optimal match in two images from the same entity in the three-dimensional world. The stereo correspondence problem is formulated as an optimization task where an energy function, which represents the constraints on the solution, is to be minimized. A novel intelligent biological network (Bio-Net), which involves the human B-T cells immune system into neural network, is proposed in this study in order to learn the robust relationship between the input feature points and the output matched points. A model from input-output data (left reference point-right target point) is established. In the experiments, the abdomen reconstructions for different-shape mannequins are then performed by means of the proposed method. The final results are compared and analyzed, which demonstrate that the proposed approach greatly outperforms the single neural network and the conventional matching algorithm in precise. Particularly, as far as time cost and efficiency, the proposed method exhibits its significant promising and potential for improvement. Hence, it is entirely considered as an effective and feasible alternative option for stereo matching.

Aiming to solve the high computational and time consuming problem in SIFT feature matching, this paper presents an improved SIFT feature matching algorithm based on reference point. The algorithm starts from selecting a suitable reference point in the feature descriptor space when SIFT features are extracted. In the feature matching stage, this paper uses the Euclidean distance between descriptor vectors of the feature point to be matched and the reference point to make a fast filtration which removes most of the features that could not be matched. For the remaining SIFT features, Best-bin-first (BBF) algrithm is utilized to obtain precise matches. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed matching algorithm achieves good effectiveness in image matching, and takes only about 60 percent of the time that the traditional matching algorithm takes.

Distinguishing target object under occlusions has become the forefront of research to cope with grasping study in general. In this paper, a novel framework which is able to be utilized for a parallel robotic gripper is proposed. There are two key steps for the proposed method in the process of grasping occluded object: generating template information and grasp detection using the matching algorithm. A neural network, trained by the RGB-D data from the Cornell Grasp Dataset, predicts multiple grasp rectangles on template images. A proposed matching algorithm is utilized to eliminate the influence caused by occluded parts on scene images and generates multiple grasp rectangles for objects under occlusions using the grasp information of matched template images. In order to improve the quality of matching result, the proposed matching algorithm improves the SIFT algorithm and combines it with the improved RANSAC algorithm. In this way, this paper obtains suitable grasp rectangles on scene images and offers a new thought about grasping detection under occlusions. The validation results show the effectiveness and efficiency of this approach.

The development of deep learning provides a new research method for fault diagnosis. However, in the industrial field, the labeled samples are insufficient and the noise interference is strong so that raw data obtained by the sensor are occupied with noise signal. It is difficult to recognize time-domain fault signals under the severe noise environment. In order to solve these problems, the convolutional neural network (CNN) fusing frequency domain feature matching algorithm (FDFM), called CNN-FDFM, is proposed in this paper. FDFM extracts key frequency features from signals in the frequency domain, which can maintain high accuracy in the case of strong noise and limited samples. CNN automatically extracts features from time-domain signals, and by using dropout to simulate noise input and increasing the size of the first-layer convolutional kernel, the anti-noise ability of the network is improved. Softmax with temperature parameter T and D-S evidence theory are used to fuse the two models. As FDFM and CNN can provide different diagnostic information in frequency domain, and time domain, respectively, the fused model CNN-FDFM achieves higher accuracy under severe noise environment. In the experiment, when a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) drops to -10 dB, the diagnosis accuracy of CNN-FDFM still reaches 93.33%, higher than CNN’s accuracy of 45.43%. Besides, when SNR is greater than -6 dB, the accuracy of CNN-FDFM is higher than 99%.
