We propose a method of image registration between scrambled images in order to guarantee the secure data management. This method uses either phase-only correlation or DCT sign phase correlation for the registration. Correlation and registration values between images are directly estimated in the scrambled domain. Information in each image is protected and the relative relation with other images is held by synchronizing scrambling. As a result, the proposed method has no effect on registration accuracy. Translation estimation experiments are performed to show the appropriateness and the effectiveness of the proposed method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
