Abstract
This work investigates performance of recent feature-based matching
techniques when applied to registration of underwater images.
Matching methods are tested versus diff erent contrast en¬hancing
pre-processing of images. As a result of the performed experiments for
various dominat¬ing in images underwater artifacts and present deformation,
the outper¬forming preprocessing, detection and description
methods are proposed
