Image registration and its application to computer vision : mosaicing and independant motion detection

Image registration enables the geometric alignment of two images and is widely used in various applications in the fields of remote sensing, medical imaging and computer vision. This thesis explores each of the stages, and looks at two applications of image registration. The applications investigated are mosaicing and independent motion detection. Mosaicing is the aligning of several images into a single composition that represents part of a 3D scene. This is useful for many different applications, including virtual reality environments and movie special effects.
