Abstract

This paper presents an efficient image registration technique using the Q-shift complex wavelet transform (Q-shift CWT). It is chosen for its key advantages compared to other wavelet transforms; such as shift invariance, directional selectivity, perfect reconstruction, limited redundancy and efficient computation. The experiments show that the proposed algorithm improves the computational efficiency and yields robust and consistent image registration compared with the classical wavelet transform.
