Loosely termed as ‘sketch to photo' matching, this problem is complicated by the wide possible variety of factors in both the sketches and the photos, some of which are angles, color, lighting and scale. Our proposed approach overcomes these difficulties by normalization of inputs and selection of some prominent and reliable features points. The basis of comparison between corresponding feature points is the ratio of Euclidean distances which makes the approach scale independent. The approach promises discernible improvements in accuracy and efficiency.BS ThesisSemi-automaticSketch to image matchingSketch to photoThesis
