Abstract

An optimal algorithm of panoramic sewing of images in the presence of alignment errors has been synthesized on the basis of the criterion of a posteriori probability maximum. It was shown that in case of stationary images and equal a priori probabilities of image shifts, the shift estimate is determined by a maximum of the cross-correlation function of a pair of overlapping images. The sewing algorithm proposed was illustrated by the sewing of real images.
