Abstract

Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is a very powerful and popular descriptor for image registration, which is commonly used in feature matching. However, there is still a need for improvement with respect to the matching accuracy of SIFT. In this paper, we present a combination of modified LBP and SIFT method for more reliable feature matching. The main idea of the proposed method is to extract spatially enhanced image features with modified Local Binary Pattern (LBP) from the images before implementation Difference-of-Gaussian (DoG) in SIFT. The proposed method is also robust to illumination changes, rotation and scaling of images. Experimental results show significant improvement over original SIFT.
