An improved SIFT algorithm for registration between SAR and optical images

Abstract Aiming at improving the performance of scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithm during the registration of optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, a new SIFT algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the nonlinear diffusion scale space of optical and SAR images is constructed by...
