Abstract

The invention discloses an image registration method based on a convolution neural network. The method includes the steps: using a VGG-16 convolution network to extract feature points from that reference image and the move image respectively, thereby generating a reference feature point set and a moving feature point set; When the distance matrix of the feature points simultaneously satisfies thefirst and second constraint conditions, performing a pre-matching operation, that is, a feature point x in the reference feature point set and a feature point y in the moving feature point set are matching points; setting a certain threshold, combining with iteration to select the dynamic interior points of the pre-matched feature points, screening out the final feature points, and obtaining a priori probability matrix; according to a priori probability matrix and EM algorithm, searching for the optimal parameters and realizing image registration. The invention dynamically increases the interior point step by step through the dynamic interior point selection when the characteristic point is matched, and improves the registration accuracy rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image processing, in particular to an image registration method based on a convolutional neural network. Background technique [0002] Image registration is one of the important tasks in the field of image processing, and it is also the basis of image fusion. Since the image registration data comes from different shooting times, different angles or different physical devices, etc., how to select stable feature points and match them correctly becomes the key issue of registration. [0003] At present, the traditional Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) detection algorithm and some improved algorithms based on it can basically realize the selection of feature points, but for multi-temporal or multi-modal image registration, due to the surface If there is a large difference, the SIFT algorithm may generate many outliers, or even not detect enough feature points, thus limiting the application of image r...
