Abstract | Image keypoint descriptor matching is an important pre-processing task in various computer vision applications. This study first introduces an existing multi-resolution exhaustive search (MRES) algorithm combined with a multi-resolution candidate elimination technique to address this issue efficiently. A graphics processing unit (GPU) acceleration design is then proposed to improve its real-time performance. Suppose that a scale-invariant feature transform like algorithm is used to extract image keypoint descriptors of an input image, the MRES algorithm first computes a multi-resolution table of each keypoint descriptor by using a L 1-norm-based dimension reduction approach. Next, a fast candidate elimination algorithm is employed based on the multi-resolution tables to remove all non-candidates from a candidate matching list by using a simple L 1-norm computation. However, when the MRES algorithm was implemented on the central processing unit, the authors observed that the step of multi-resolution table building is not computationally efficient, but it is very suitable for parallel implementation on the GPU. Therefore, this study presents a GPU acceleration method for the MRES algorithm to achieve better real-time performance. Experimental results validate the computational efficiency and matching accuracy of the proposed algorithm by comparing with three existing methods. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
