ABSTRACT An image registration technique based on feed forward neural network and Fourier Transform is developed and presented. In the proposed scheme, the spectrums of the acquired images are computed, the Fourier coefficients within a selected central window of each spectrum are extracted and fed as inputs to the neural network. The feed forward neural network is implemented to estimate the transformation, defined in terms of the translation, rotation and magnification parameters, to align the corresponding images. This approach does not estimate the various registration parameters separately. They are estimated simultaneously leading to a better-optimized set of registration parameters. The approach is successful and yields better results than another Fourier based registration technique. The approach is validated on 2D images. However, it can be easily extended to 3-D application
