摘要: A method for performing parametric (210) image alignment, which when given any local match-measure (206), applies global estimation directly to the data, without first going through an intermediate step of flow estimation. The can utilize match-measure, such as correlation, normalized-correlation, squared or absolute brightness differences, statistical measures mutual information, and like.
