Abstract
The process of creating mosaic images from non-linear registration image sequences consists of various complex subtasks. The two most time consuming and hardware resource intensive operations are the image registration process and the solution of an equation system in order to determine image positions in the mosaic. This work presents methods that allow quick calculation of image positions while reducing the necessary hardware resources. A novel graph-based method to determine promising image pairs for the registration process was developed, resulting in a reduction of runtime by 87.5%.
