This is aMATLAB implementation of thehypergraph matching algorithm for multi-source image correspondences.

This algorithm is published in the paper:Game theoretic hypergraph matching for multi-source image correspondences.

• sift win32

ExecutesiftWin32.exe software to install SIFT libraries onWindows system (32-bit/64-bit).

1. Prepare several multi-source image pairs in a folder (e.g.,images/).

2. Set parameters (distRatio,imresizerate1 andimresizerate2) inrun_matching.m (see comments).

3. Runrun_matching.m to match key points of multi-source image pairs via hypergraph matching algorithm.

Notes:

• TuningdistRatio to a larger value in [0, 1] will generate more key points and lower the matching speed.

• The reported running time does not include the establishment of hypergraphs and the calculation of edge weights.
