Performance considerations for image matching systems

Joseph A. Ratkovic

Published 1979

Describes the underlying factors which affect system performance--accuracy of match and probability of false match--in map matching systems. Methods for improving system accuracy are discussed. A methodology for managing false fix probability during the acquisition phase is developed. Rules for accommodating various types of system problems in terms of preprocessing, scene selection, and algorithm choice are presented. Finally, simulation results are given to verify the discussion.
