Many a times when images are taken from different sources or viewpoints or sensors at different time and angles, they need to be compared so that the differences can be found when these images are aligned together. This task can be effectively performed using image registration. One example of this is in medical field where an image taken prior to the operation is aligned with the one taken during surgery or operation. The principle objective of this paper is to provide a simulation framework in order to perform image registration efficiently with the help of affine transforms based on normalized cross-correlation.
