Compared with ordinary lens, fish-eye lens has larger field of view, and even direct access to the image infor-mation of the hemisphere domain. In the field of stereoscopic vision, using fish-eye lens to get a panoramic image can reduce the number of lens and image acquisition modules, simplifying the system, increase speed, and reduce costs. But images taken with a fisheye lens will produce a certain amount of distortion, and the more closer to the edge of image the more larger to the distortion. Therefore, it is difficult to match the feature points of the image in the stereo vision system with the orthogonal or the angle of the optical axis, which directly affects the application effect of the stereo vision sys-tem. However, the problem can be solved by an image matching algorithm based on affine invariants. This paper first extracts the characteristics of MSCR regions from the original image, and then introduces the CS-LBP operator to describe the characteristics of each MSCR regions and finds the only matching by the application of the chi square distance com-parison method, which based on feature weights. Finally, the ellipse fitting and connection mark makes the matching result visualization. The stability and consistency of this method can be verified by the experiments, so this method can be applied to the matching of the fish-eye images with large rotation angle.%相比普通镜头,鱼眼镜头拥有更大的视场角,甚至可以直接获取半球域的图像信息,在立体视觉领域,应用鱼眼镜头来采集全景图像可减少镜头及图像采集模块数目,简化系统、提高运算速度、降低成本.但同时鱼眼镜头图像也存在一定程度的畸变,越靠近边缘畸变越严重.因此,在光轴正交或是角度更大的立体视觉系统中,进行相关图像的特征点匹配存在困难,直接影响立体视觉系统的应用效果.然而采用一种具有仿射不变性的图像匹配算法即可解决这个问题,首先提取原始图像的MSCR特征区域,其次引进CS-LBP算子对各个MSCR区域进行特征描述,应用特征权重的卡方距离比较法进行唯一匹配,最后进行椭圆拟合及连线标记使得匹配结果可视化.且通过实验验证了此方法的稳定一致性,可应用于大旋转角度的鱼眼图像的特征匹配.
