Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
UAV and remote sensing image stitching has significant value in agricultural monitoring, environmental surveillance, and urban inspection. However, traditional stitching methods often suffer from visual artifacts caused by imperfect seam-line selection, as well as inefficiency and limited precision in complex scenarios. This paper proposes a knowledge-driven seamline optimization framework that integrates superpixel segmentation, edge saliency analysis, and shortest-path algorithms. First, SLIC superpixel segmentation partitions images into homogeneous regions, reducing computational redundancy through semantic-aware knowledge modeling and improving computational efficiency through adaptive superpixel seed distribution, priority queue acceleration, and parallelization. Second, edge saliency analysis extracts high-frequency structural features as prior knowledge to avoid seamlines crossing prominent edges. Finally, a multi-feature fusion mechanism combining color consistency, edge significance, and spatial continuity guides the Dijkstra shortest-path algorithm to optimize seamline placement for natural transitions, enabling knowledge-based integration of heterogeneous visual cues. Furthermore, the proposed method incorporates a parallelized shortest-path search and dynamically adjusted superpixel constraints to further refine seamline placement. Experimental results on multiple high-resolution remote sensing and UAV datasets demonstrate that the method not only enhances the perceptual quality of stitched images but also effectively reduces visible artifacts.
