Abstract

There are many applications, for example image copyright protection, where transformed images of a given test image need to be identified. The solution to the identification problem consists of two main stages. In stage one, certain representative features are detected for all images. In stage two, the representative features of the test image and the stored images are compared to identify the transformed images for the test image. We have reported the technique to extract robust representative features – corners – in our previous work [1]. This paper will focus on our stage-two work on effective corner matching technique for transformed image identification. Experimental results show that the proposed corner matching technique is very much effective in identifying the transformed images for a given test image.
