Abstract :
The computational cost of template matching can be reduced by using only a subtemplate, and applying the rest of the template only when the subtemplate´s degree of match exceeds a threshold. A probabilistic analysis of this approach is given, with emphasis on the choice of subtemplate size to minimize the expected computational cost.
