Abstract
A matching accelerator in the form of a hardware accelerator configured to perform matrix multiplication and/or additional operations is used to optimize keypoint matching. An SSE calculation may be determined by utilizing the matching accelerator to perform matrix multiplication to obtain a cost matrix for two sets of keypoint descriptors from two images. The hardware accelerator may determine a best cost calculation for each keypoint in each direction, which is utilized to perform keypoint matching.
