Summary :

In this paper a hardware-efficient local extrema detection (LED) method used for scale-space extrema detection in the SIFT algorithm is proposed. By reformulating the reuse of the intermediate results in taking the local maximum and minimum, the necessary operations in LED are reduced without degrading the detection accuracy. The proposed method requires 25% to 35% less logic resources than the conventional method when implemented in an FPGA with a slight increase in latency.
