Abstract

We propose an accurate method for image matching in scenes including repetitive patterns like buildings, walls, and so on. We construct our matching method with two phases: matching between the elements of repetitive regions; matching between the points in the remained regions. We first detect the elements of repetitive patterns in each image and find matches between the elements in the regions without using any descriptors depended on a view-point. We then find matches between the points in the remained regions of the two images using the informations of the detected matches. The advantage of our method is to use an efficient matching information in the repetitive patterns. We show the effectiveness of our method by real image examples.
