Description
Summary:The distribution of feature vectors plays a critical role in image registration. In this letter, we propose a novel approach for remote sensing image registration based on marginal distribution adaptation. First, we map the feature vectors of reference and sensed images into a latent space. Transfer component analysis (TCA) is employed to compute the transformation matrix by minimizing the maximum mean discrepancy (MMD). Then, we match feature vectors in the latent space where their marginal distributions are similar, which can increase correct correspondences and enhance registration accuracy. Finally, we test the proposed algorithm on ten real image pairs. The effectiveness and efficiency of our approach are verified by experimental results.
