Integral Images for Block Matching
by Gabriele Facciolo, Nicolas Limare and Enric Meinhardt-Llopis
Abstract
The integral image representation is a remarkable idea that permits to
evaluate the sum of image values over rectangular regions of the image
with four operations, regardless of the size of the region.
It was first proposed under the name of summed area table in the
computer graphics community by Crow'84, in order to efficiently filter
texture maps. It was later popularized in the computer vision community
by Viola & Jones'04 with its use in their real-time object detection
framework.
In this article we describe the integral image algorithm and study its
application in the context of block matching.
We investigate tradeoffs and the limits of the performance gain with
respect to exhaustive block matching.
