Image matching method and stereo matching system
First Claim
1. An image matching method, for performing a stereo matching from a first image block to a second image block in a stereo matching system, the image matching method comprising:
- performing a matching computation from the first image block to the second image block according to a first matching algorithm to generate a first matching result;
performing the matching computation from the first image block to the second image block according to a second matching algorithm to generate a second matching result;
performing the matching computation from the second image block to the first image block according to the second matching algorithm to generate a third matching result;
obtaining a matching error of the first image block corresponding to the second matching algorithm according to the second matching result and the third matching result, and obtaining a matching similarity of the first image block matched to the second image block according to the second matching result; and
determining a stereo matching result of the first image block as the first matching result or the second matching result according to the matching error and the matching similarity.

Abstract
An image matching method is utilized for performing a stereo matching from a first image block to a second image block in a stereo matching system. The image matching method includes performing a matching computation from the first image block to the second image block according to a first matching algorithm to generate a first matching result; performing the matching computation between the first image block and the second image block according to a second matching algorithm to generate a second matching result and a third matching result; obtaining a matching error and a matching similarity of the first image block according to the second matching result and the third matching result; and determining a stereo matching result of the first image block according to the matching error and the matching similarity.
