Dense Matching with Low Computational Complexity for Disparity Estimation in the Radargrammetric Approach of SAR Intensity Images by Hamid Jannati, Mohammad Javad Valadan Zoej, Ebrahim Ghaderpour, Paolo Mazzanti

“…Notably, unlike traditional local and global models, the computational complexity of the proposed approach remains stable as the input size or kernel dimensions increase while memory consumption stays low. Compared to a pyramid-based local normalized cross-correlation (NCC) algorithm and adaptive semi-global matching (SGM) models, the proposed method maintains good accuracy comparable to adaptive SGM while reducing processing time by up to 50% relative to pyramid SGM and achieving a 35-fold speedup over the local NCC algorithm with an optimal kernel size. …”
