In this paper we proposed multi-directional matching windows combined by multi-dimensional feature vector matching, which uses not only intensity values but also multiple feature values, such as variance, first and second derivative of pixels. Multi-dimensional feature vector matching has the advantage of compensating the drawbacks of area-based stereo matching using one feature value, such as intensity. We define matching cost of a pixel by the minimum value among eight multi-dimensional feature vector distances of the pixels expanded in eight directions having the interval of 45 degrees. As best stereo matches, we determine the two points with the minimum matching cost within the disparity range. In the experiment we used aerial imagery and IKONOS satellite imagery and obtained more accurate matching results than that of conventional matching method.

Muilti-dimensional feature vector matching algorithm uses multiple features such as intensity, gradient, variance, first or second derivative of a pixel to find correspondence pixels in stereo images. In this paper, we proposed a new method for adjusting automatically the weight of feature in multi-dimensional feature vector matching considering sharpeness of a pixel in feature vector distance curve. The sharpeness consists of minimum and maximum vector distances of a small window mask. In the experiment we used IKONOS satellite stereo imagery and obtained accurate matching results comparable to the manual weight-adjusting method.

Motion vector is that comparing a frame between previous frame and current one about how much moved. Using this motion vector, if move the image object of current frame to former frame, it could be corrected to shake from hand and camera shaking. On this thesis, compared efficiency of block matching using SAD(Sum of Absolute Difference) equation as picking out the motion vector, matching using phase correlation, matching using feature point, block matching using bitplane.

2-D shape matching algorithm is proposed which uses pivot vector and componentwise adaptive convergence factor. It is proved that proposed algorithm has better result than any other algorithm. It is to be expected that this algorithm will work effectively in 3-D shape matching.

This paper describes a new hierarchial block matching algorithm especially appropriate for a large search area. The proposed algorithm consists of higher level search for an initial motion vector estimate by using a new matching criterion over the evenly subsampled search points, and lower level search for the final motion vector refinement. In the higher level matching criterion, mean absolute differences at the search points (or motion vector candidates) similar to motion vectors of causally neighboring blocks, are weighted properly so that these points can have a higher chance to being selected. The proposed algorithm outperforms existing hierarchical block matching algorithms, and its computational regularity makes hardware implementation simple.

In this paper effective block matching algorithms are proposed to find the motion vector. There are two approaches to the estimation of the motion vector in MCC (motion compensated coding), i.e.pel(pixel element) recursive algorithm and block matching algorithm. The search algorithm in this paper is based on the block matching method. The advantage of this algorithm is the reduction of the computation time. In order to reduce the computation time, three mathods are proposed in this paper. These new algorithms are faster than other methods. Compared with the three step algorithm by Koga et al., the average ratio of the computational savings obtained from the proposed algorithm is about 3-4.

This paper presents firstly the method of Euler angle matching designing the transfer alignment using the attitude matching. In this method, the observation directly uses Euler angle difference between MINS and SINS so it needs to describe the rotation vector error to the Euler angle error. The rotation vector error related to the Euler angle error is derive from the direction cosine matrix error equation. The feasibility of the Kalman filter designed for the transfer alignment by Euler angle matching is analyzed by the alignment error results with respect to the roll angle the pitch angle, and the yaw angle matching.

In this paper an effective block matching algorithm is proposed to find the motion vector. There are two approaches to the estimation of the motion vector in MCC (motion compensated coding), i.e., pel(pixel element) recursive algorithm and block matching algorithm. The search algorithm in this paper is based on the block matching method. The advantage of a proposed algorithm using integral projections is the reduction of the computation time. While the conventional block matching methods have to be computed in 2-dimensional arrays, the proposed algorithm using integral projections can be computed in 1-dimensional arrays. In comparison with conventional block matching methods, a computer simulation shows that though the prediction error increases 0.23 db, it is not detectable for human eyes and the average reduction ratio of computation time obtained from the proposed algorithm is about 3-4.

A contour shape matching based pixel motion estimation is proposed. The pixel motion information is very useful to compensate the motion artifact generated at the specific gray level contours in the moving image for subfield gray-scale display devices. In this motion estimation method, the gray level boundary contours are extracted from the input image. Then using contour shape matching, the most similar contour in next frame is found, and the contour is divided into segment unit. The pixel motion vector is estimated from the displacement of the each segment in the contour by segment matching. From this method, more precise motion vector can be estimated and this method is more robust to image motion with rotation or from illumination variations.

This paper investigates effective methods for implementing motion matching, which is actively used in real-time motion generation applications. The success of motion matching heavily hinges on its simple definition of a feature vector, yet this very definition can introduce significant variance in the outcomes. Our research focuses on identifying the optimal combination of feature vectors that effectively generates desired trajectories in locomotion generation. To this end, we experimented with a range of feature vector combinations and performed an in-depth error analysis to evaluate the results.
