Hi,
I don't know what your images *really* look like (signal/noise,...), but what I use for *my* images is the phase correlation approach.
Here is roughly what I do:
- select from the images the sub-region you want to compare
- window these images (multiply by a function with 1 in the middle and zero at the edges) with either a sin function or something like a hamming window.
- make the fft of both
- multiply the fft of the first by the conj() of the fft of the second
- find the position of the max of the real_part()
- convert this to 2d array indices
It might seem tricky, but it's good to learn with.
