Title:
IMAGE TEMPLATE MASKING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/124512
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of identifying images as matching comprises comparing two image templates using a master mask to select corresponding codes from the templates. The master mask excludes blocks from the matching process and/or weights blocks according to their known or expected reliability.
