ABSTRACT
We explore how to optimally categorize regions for faster and more reliable image matching and registration. We propose using the entropy of histogram of oriented gradients(HOG) features to characterize image regions, and propose a region-sensitive feature selection algorithm for image registration. We apply the region categorization algorithms to several mobile applications, including mobile visual search and image registration for panorama. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach by experimental results on a large dataset.

Region-based image registration for mosaicking
In this paper, a method for image registration using 2D regions as correspondence features is proposed. The proposed method consists of three stages. First, a region segmentation technique is used to find reasonably good regions in image pairs. Second, ...
Region-aware Registration for Multi-stained Histology Images
ICIGP '21: Proceedings of the 2021 4th International Conference on Image and Graphics ProcessingMulti-stained histology images can provide a wealth of pathological information for clinical diagnosis. Accurate registration of multi-stained images, especially on ROIs (e.g. tumor area), can offer a more precise and comprehensive understanding of a ...
