Abstract

A novel multi-resolution hybrid matching method based on wavelets to improve stereo matching accuracy of satellite images is presented. It is a feature-based system. Wavelets are used to perform multi-resolution edge extraction and multi-resolution matching. And edge pixels are matched using adaptive matching windows that vary their shapes according to the directions of edges. Unlike conventional matching methods, an adaptive searching range is applied here, which means each edge point's searching range may be different. And the low resolution level matched results are utilized for interpolating high resolution mismatched pixels.
