Abstract

Panoramic images have numerous important applications in the area of computer vision, video coding/enhancement, virtual reality and surveillance. The process of building panorama using mosaicing technique is a challenging task as it requires consideration of various factors such as camera motion, sensor noise and illumination difference, that deteriorate the quality of the mosaic. This paper proposes a feature based mosaicing technique for creation of high quality panoramic image. The algorithm mitigates the problem of seam by aligning the images employing Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) features and blending the overlapping region using optimized graph-cut. The results show the efficacy of the proposed algorithm.
