Abstract

Research in this paper is focused to make a change on variety of Efficient Sub-window Search algorithms. A restriction is applied on the sub-window shape from rectangle into square in order to reduce the number of possible sub-windows with an expectation to improve the computation speed. However, this may come with a consequence of accuracy loss. The experiment results on the proposed algorithms were analysed and compared with the performance of the original algorithms to determine whether the speed improvement is significantly large to make the accuracy loss acceptable. It was found that some new algorithms show a good speed improvement while maintaining small accuracy loss. Furthermore, there is an algorithm designed from a combination of a new algorithm and an original algorithm which gains the benefit from both algorithms and produces the best performance among all new algorithms.
