Abstract :
This paper deals with the design and implementation of a parallel software system based on differential evolution for the registration of images, and with its testing on two bidimensional remotely sensed images on mosaicking problem. Registration is carried out by finding the most suitable affine transformation in terms of maximization of the mutual information between the first image and the transformation of the second one, without any need for setting control points. A coarse-grained distributed version is implemented on a cluster of personal computers
