A METHOD FOR DIGITAL STABILIZATION OF IMAGE IN SCANNED FILM
The article is devoted to improving precision of digital image stabilization methods used to reduce unsteadiness introduced on film scanners. A special image reprocessing method is proposed that can significantly improve precision & reliability of common stabilization approaches that try to detect and stabilize locations of film perforations in scanned image. A particular implementation of this method is described, that also make efficient use of locations of all perforations available in scanned image. Then proposed algorithm is shown to compare favorably with other commonly used stabilization methods.
