A method for reassembling fragments in image reconstruction

The reassembly of fragments to reconstruct images and objects is a problem often encountered in several applications, ranging from archeology to medicine. In this paper we present a novel method for reassembling two 2D fragments. The proposed method is based on the information extracted from the outlines and from the color contents of the fragments, without relying on any knowledge of the final image. The techniques illustrated in this paper constitute the core of a more general method for reassembling n fragments we are developing. However, here we concentrate mainly on the description of the algorithms for matching two fragments and on their experimental analysis and validation.
