This is an incremental improvement for computer vision applications involving video mosaicking.
The paper tackled the problem of illumination changes affecting image mosaicking in video sequences by improving an existing algorithm, resulting in better invariance against illumination changes compared to the original optical-flow-based method.
This technical report describes an improved image mosaicking algorithm. It is based on Jain's logarithmic search algorithm [Jain 1981] which is coupled to the method of Kourogi (1999} for matching images in a video sequence. Logarithmic search has a better invariance against illumination changes than the original optical-flow-based method of Kourogi.
