Multi-scale cylindrical projection panorama image generating method for video monitoring

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical fields of image processing and video processing and provides a multi-scale cylindrical projection panorama image generating method for video monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: intercepting a preset overlapping region of a to-be-spliced image, thereby acquiring a cylindrical projection image; establishing sub-images of the image under various scales, searching feature points by adopting an improved Harris method, and solving feature vectors under the scales; searching the matched feature point pairs, filtering, solving the optimized homography matrix, coordinates of the splicing joints and the actual overlapping region of to-be-spliced images; and adjusting the chroma so as to eliminate the splicing joints, thereby obtaining the final panorama image. The method disclosed by the invention has the great advantages that the image edge distortion caused by the shooting angle of a camera is eliminated, the processing speed and the algorithm stability are improved by adopting a mode of presetting the overlapping region, the solved matching points are filtered, the image color difference is adjusted by adopting a gradual coefficient adjustment mode, and the final joint-free panorama image with consistent chroma is formed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of image processing and video processing, in particular to a multi-scale cylindrical projection panoramic image generation method for video monitoring. Background technique [0002] The key technology of image stitching is to accurately find the overlapping area and range between image sequences, and realize the correspondence model between corresponding points, that is, image registration. According to the currently proposed image registration algorithms, image stitching techniques can be divided into three categories: methods based on transform domain, methods based on image features and methods based on image grayscale. The method based on the transformation domain is difficult to deal with the rotation and scaling of the lens, and requires a large overlapping ratio between the images to be registered, and searches the entire image space at the same time, which is computationally expensive. The m...
