Abstract

Local image descriptor is a kind of vector (either in float type or binary type) used as the signature of a local image. The aim of this representation is to make the local image as distinctive as possible while maintaining robustness to various kinds of image transformations, both photometric and geometric ones, including viewpoint changes (out-plane rotation), scale changes, in-plane rotation, image blur, noise, illumination, etc. By achieving these characteristics, one can easily establish correspondences among images of the same scene taken from different positions, or among similar images.
