From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Elastic matching is one of the pattern recognition technique in computer science. Elastic matching (EM) is also known as deformable template, flexible matching, or nonlinear template matching.

Elastic matching can be defined as an optimization problem of two-dimensional warping specifying corresponding pixels between subjected images.
