Scale-invariant template matching using histogram of dominant gradients

作者:

Highlights:

• We presented a scale-invariant template matching method using histogram of dominant gradients.

• We defined the concept of dominant gradient for scaling-tolerant gradient map.

• We enhanced the dominant gradient components and suppressed the other components.

• We extracted a scaling-tolerant histogram vector from an image.

• We carried out a scaling-invariant template matching using the extracted histogram vector.
