Polynomial approximation, interpolation, imagerectification and registration.
We report on the development of a global polynomial approximation algorithm for image rectification and registration. The approximation algorithm fits a linear combination of two-dimensional Chebyshev Polynomials to the sample points obtained from a test image. The algorithm converges on an approximation that exhibits "good" interpolation properties. The algorithm was successfully used to map pixel positions in unrectified images to object locations on a planar surface, thus demonstrating the practical utility of the algorithm.
