We propose a measuring method of large object using the pattern matching. It is hard and expensive to get the complete 3D data when the object is large and exceeds the limit of measuring devices. The large object is divided into several smaller areas and is scanned several times to get the data of all the pieces. These data are aligned to get the complete 3D data using the pattern matching method such as point pattern matching method and transform matrix algorithm. The laser slit beam and CCD camera are applied for the experimental measurement. Visual C＋＋ on Windows 98 is implemented in processing the algorithm.

This paper is related to the fast block matching algorithm, especially a method for expanding the search pattern using the second local matching point in the adaptive hexagonal search. To reduce the local minima problem in fast motion estimation, the proposed method expands the search pattern by adding new searching points selected by using the second local matching point to conventional search pattern formed by the first local matching point in the adaptive hexagonal search. According to estimating the motion vector by applying block matching algorithm based on hexagonal search to the expanded search pattern, the proposed method can effectively carry out fast motion estimation to improve the performance in terms of compensated image quality.

The measuring method of large object using the pattern matching is discussed in the paper. It is hard and expensive to get the complete 3D data when the object is large or exceeds the limit of measuring devices. The large object is divided into several smaller areas and is scanned several times to get the data of all the pieces. These data are aligned to get the complete 3D data using the pattern matching method. The point pattern matching method and transform matrix algorithm are used for aligning.

The pixel information of the object was obtained sequentially and pixels were clustered to a label by the line labeling method. Feature points were determined by finding the slope for edge pixels after selecting the fixed number of edge pixels. The slope was estimated by the least square method to reduce the detection error. Once a matching point was determined by comparing the feature information of the object and the pattern, the parameters for translation, scaling and rotation were obtained by selecting the longer line of the two which passed through the matching point from left and right sides. Finally, modified Hausdorff Distance has been used to identify the similarity between the object and the given pattern. The multi-label method was developed for recognizing the patterns with more than one label, which performs the modified Hausdorff Distance twice. Experiments have been performed to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm and method for simple target image, complex target image, simple pattern, and complex pattern as well as the partially hidden object. It was proved via experiments that the proposed image matching algorithm for recognizing the object had a good performance of matching.

This paper presents only a matching algorithm based on Delaunay triangulation and Parametrization from the extracted minutiae points. This method maps local neighborhood of points of two different point sets to unit-circle using topology information by Delaunay triangulation method from feature points of real fingerprint. Then, a linked convex polygon that includes an interior point is constructed as one-ring which is mapped to unit-circle using Parametrization that keep shape preserve. In local matching, each area of polygon in unit-circle is compared. If the difference of two areas are within tolerance, two polygons are consider to be matched and then translation, rotation and scaling factors for global matching are calculated.

This paper describes an algorithm of pattern analysis of ECG signals by significant points extraction method. The significant points can be extracted by modified zerocrossing method, which method determines the real significant point among the significant point candidates by zerocrossing method and slope rate of left side and right side. This modified zerocrossing method improves the accuracy of detection of real significant point position. This paper also describes the pattern matching algorithm by a hierarchical AND/OR graph of ECG signals. The decomposition of ECG signals by a hierarchical AND/OR graph can make the pattern matching process easy and fast. Furthermore the pattern matching to the significant points reduces the processing time of ECG analysis.

This paper proposes a method of occluded number recognition by matching interest points. Interest points of input pattern are found via SURF features extracting and matched to interest points of clusters in database following three steps: SURF matching, coordinate matching and SURF matching on coordinate matched points. Then the satisfied interest points are counted to compute matching rate of each cluster. The input pattern will be assigned to cluster having highest matching rate. We have experimented our method to different numerical fonts and got encouraging results.

In order for a service robot to perform several tasks, basically autonomous navigation technique such as localization, mapping, and path planning is required. The localization (estimation robot's pose) is fundamental ability for service robot to navigate autonomously. In this paper, we propose a new system for point pattern matching based visual global localization using spot lightings in ceiling. The proposed algorithm us suitable for system that demands high accuracy and fast update rate such a guide robot in the exhibition. A single camera looking upward direction (called ceiling vision system) is mounted on the head of the mobile robot and image features such as lightings are detected and tracked through the image sequence. For detecting more spot lightings, we choose wide FOV lens, and inevitably there is serious image distortion. But by applying correction calculation only for the position of spot lightings not whole image pixels, we can decrease the processing time. And then using point pattern matching and least square estimation, finally we can get the precise position and orientation of the mobile robot. Experimental results demonstrate the accuracy and update rate of the proposed algorithm in real environments.

This paper proposes an efficient and yet powerful local descriptor called phase-space partition based descriptor (PPD). This descriptor is designed for the mobile image matching and retrieval. PPD, which is inspired from SIFT, also encodes the salient aspects of the image gradient in the neighborhood around an interest point. However, without employing SIFT's smoothed gradient orientation histogram, we apply the region based gradient statistics in phase space to the construction of a feature representation, which allows to reduce much computation requirements. The feature matching experiments demonstrate that PPD achieves favorable performance close to that of SIFT and faster building and matching. We also present results showing that the use of PPD descriptors in a mobile image retrieval application results in a comparable performance to SIFT.
