Abstract
We review correlation methods for pattern recognition that are invariant to a transformation af(x,y)+b of unsegmented targets. This linear transformation is an approximation to nonlinear image transformations such as those caused by detector nonlinearities. The case b=O corresponds to a change of illumination of the object with respect to the reference. Earlier methods had considered only the latter case; here we introduce a technique for the more general case. We show that two of the invariant methods are equivalent to measuring the angles between the reference and the targets in a multidimensional vector space. Experimental results that compare the various methods with and without noise show that the new method yields results that are much improved over the previous methods.
