We consider the image mosaicing task of estimating the homography that defines the transfer function between a pair of overlapping images. A novel homography estimator is proposed that is multi-objective in character in its dealing with a system of underlying equations. Experiments carried out with both synthetic and real images reveal the estimator to be commensurate in accuracy with the Gold Standard maximum likelihood estimator, but with the advantage of being considerably faster.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
