Efficient Phase Congruency-Based Feature Transform for Rapid Matching of Planetary Remote Sensing Images

Plenty of effort has been devoted to solving the nonlinear radiation distortions (NRDs) in planetary image matching. The mainstream solutions convert multimodal images into “single” modal images, which requires building the intermediate modalities of images. Phase congruency (PC) features have been widely used to construct intermediate modalities due to their excellent structure extraction capabilities and have proven their effectiveness on Earth remote sensing images. However, when dealing with large-scale planetary remote sensing images (PRSIs), traditional PC features constructed based on the log-Gabor filter take considerable time, counterproductive to global topographic mapping. To address the efficiency issue, this work proposes a fast planetary image-matching method based on efficient PC-based feature transform (EPCFT). Specifically, we introduce a method to calculate PC using Gaussian first- and second-order derivatives, called efficient PC (EPC). Different from the log-Gabor filter, which is sensitive to structures in a single direction, $\rm EPC$ uses circularly symmetric filters to equally process changes in all directions. The experiments with 100 image pairs show that compared with other methods, the efficiency of our method is nearly doubled without loss of accuracy.
