Description

Panoramic image splicing method based on image screening
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of panoramic image splicing, in particular to a panoramic image splicing technology for acquiring multiple images with overlapped areas in a target area based on an unmanned aerial vehicle and carrying out image screening.
Background
Unmanned aerial vehicle remote sensing is a new remote sensing means, because of its characteristics such as have high efficiency, flexibility, quick, low cost and high resolution, has shown good development momentum in recent years. However, in the aerial photography process of the unmanned aerial vehicle remote sensing platform, the range of a single acquired image is small and the whole required area cannot be covered frequently due to the limitations of the flying height, the focal length of a camera and the like, so that splicing a plurality of acquired remote sensing images with small visual angles into a panoramic image with a large visual angle becomes an important technology.
The panoramic image stitching can stitch a plurality of adjacent small-view-angle images into a panoramic image with a large viewing angle. Image stitching is the mapping of all images onto a common coordinate system by projection warping (e.g., cylindrical, spherical, or perspective). Due to irregular movement of the lens, certain parallax exists between images, and the spliced panoramic picture almost inevitably has the problems of insufficient local splicing precision (figure 1(a)) and serious global deformation accumulation (figure 1 (b)).
To improve the quality of the splice, Konolige et al[1]It is proposed to use beam-balancing for global optimization, which minimizes the global reprojection error. To avoid non-linear optimization, Kekec et al[2]An affine model is used to initialize the alignment and a homography model is used for global optimization. As the number of stitched images increases, the accumulation of perspective distortion increases, and to avoid this problem Cabillero et al[3]The image is registered by adopting a layered model according to the registration quality of the image, the model has smaller degree of freedom for the registration of the large parallax image, and the essence of the algorithm is that a balance is obtained between the improvement of the registration precision and the reduction of deformation accumulation.
For the problem of splicing images with large visual angles, the method for improving the splicing quality of the images by using the topological relation among the images is also a very efficient scheme. For efficient estimation of topological relations between images, Elicol et al[4]And detecting the overlapping relation between the images by adopting a rough characteristic point matching algorithm and a minimum spanning tree algorithm. With respect to the selection of the reference image, Richard et al[5]It is shown that the most suitable choice is the image closest to the centre of the panoramic image, since the average shortest path for the centre image to all other images is the shortest, which minimizes the accumulation of deformations. To implement this algorithm, Choe et al[6]The optimal reference image is selected by the algorithm of graph theory, but the premise is that deformation errors between each pair of images need to be calculated in advance. Xia et al[7]A registration model is provided, which is initially carried out by an affine modelAnd (4) carrying out registration, and then refining parameters between adjacent images through a homography model.
The method can splice a plurality of images into a complete panoramic image, but as the number of splices increases, data can be redundant, and unnecessary calculation is generated.

103: and performing similarity transformation between the small image group and the small image group to obtain initialized registration parameters, and then refining the initialized registration parameters between adjacent images under the anti-perspective constraint through a homography model according to a splicing sequence.
Example 2
The scheme of example 1 is further described below with reference to specific examples, which are described in detail below:
201: shooting a target area based on an unmanned aerial vehicle, and acquiring a plurality of continuous images with overlapped areas as an original image group;
wherein, the image information of the target area can be obtained through the operation of the step.
202: carrying out rough feature point matching on the original image group to obtain a similarity matrix between the images;
wherein, the step 202 specifically includes:
establishing all images (I) according to the matching number of the feature points of the two imagesi1.. and N, N denotes the number of original images), where the similarity M (i, j) between the ith image and the jth image can be expressed as:
Figure GDA0002979280250000041
where p is the number of feature points in image i and q represents the number of feature points in image j. m and n represent the serial numbers of the characteristic points in the image i and the image j, if the characteristic points m and n are matched, vmnAnd recording as 1, otherwise, recording as 0.
The above-mentioned method for calculating feature point matching is through SURF (speeded up robust features)[8-10]And finally, matching the feature points of each image with the feature points of the rest other images one by using the screened feature points.
203: based on a similarity matrix between the images, an image screening algorithm is provided, and redundant images are removed from an original image group;
wherein the step 203 comprises:
based on a similarity matrix M of the original image group obtained in the previous step, (1) setting a similarity threshold; (2) judging whether the maximum value in the similarity matrix of the current image group is greater than a similarity threshold, if so, selecting two images with the highest similarity in the current image group, judging one of the two images as a redundant image, and removing the image group; (3) and (3) repeating the operation of the step (2) until the maximum value in the similarity matrix of the current image group is smaller than the similarity threshold value.

For example, 5 images A-E and their weight matrixes are used, the shortest path algorithm is operated to calculate the shortest paths from the image A to the four images B-E respectively, then the weight sum of the four shortest paths is obtained, and by analogy, the shortest paths from each image to the remaining four images is calculated, and the weight sum of the four shortest paths corresponding to each image is obtained. And if the sum of the weights of the shortest paths of the image A to the rest four images is minimum, setting the image A as the optimal reference map.
The method for determining the splicing sequence is as follows: based on the weight matrix W of the image group, a point O representing the optimal reference map is used as a starting point, a breadth-first traversal algorithm is applied, and the obtained point sequence is used as the image splicing sequence. As shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a spatial relationship diagram of 61 images, each point represents one image, a connecting line between a point and a point represents that the images have an overlapping relationship, a number on the point represents a stitching order of the images, a point 0 represents an optimal reference diagram, numbers on other points represent that a breadth-first traversal algorithm is run based on a weight matrix W, the point 0 is taken as a starting point, a sequence of the points is sequentially obtained, and the sequence is taken as a stitching order of the panoramic images.

The panoramic image stitching method based on image screening according to claim 1, characterized in that similarity transformation is performed between the small image group and the small image group to obtain initialized registration parameters, and then according to the stitching sequence, the refinement of the initialized registration parameters by the homography model under the inverse perspective constraint between the adjacent images is specifically as follows:
carrying out similarity transformation between the small image group and the small image group to obtain initialized registration parameters, and then refining the initialized registration parameters through a homography model under perspective constraint between adjacent images according to a splicing sequence; the optimal solution is obtained by minimizing the total energy function.
