- Abstract
- Multi-modal image registration has received significant research attention over the past decade. SymmetricSIFT is a recently proposed local description technique that can be used for registering multi-modal images. It is based on a well-known general image registration technique named Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). Symmetric-SIFT, however, achieves this invariance to multi-modality at the cost of losing important information. In this paper, we show how this loss may adversely affect the accuracy of registration results. We then propose an improvement to Symmetric-SIFT to overcome the problem. Our experimental results show that the proposed technique can improve the number of true matches by up to 10 times and overall matching accuracy by up to 30%.
