==========================================================
Using Polar and Log-Polar Transformations for Registration
==========================================================

Phase correlation (``registration.phase_cross_correlation``) is an efficient
method for determining translation offset between pairs of similar images.
However this approach relies on a near absence of rotation/scaling differences
between the images, which are typical in real-world examples.

To recover rotation and scaling differences between two images, we can take
advantage of two geometric properties of the log-polar transform and the
translation invariance of the frequency domain. First, rotation in Cartesian
space becomes translation along the angular coordinate (:math:`\theta`) axis
of log-polar space. Second, scaling in Cartesian space becomes translation
along the radial coordinate (:math:`\rho = \ln\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}`) of log-polar
space. Finally, differences in translation in the spatial domain do not impact
magnitude spectrum in the frequency domain.

In this series of examples, we build on these concepts to show how the
log-polar transform ``transform.warp_polar`` can be used in conjunction with
phase correlation to recover rotation and scaling differences between two
images that also have a translation offset.

Recover rotation difference with a polar transform
==================================================

In this first example, we consider the simple case of two images that only
differ with respect to rotation around a common center point. By remapping
these images into polar space, the rotation difference becomes a simple
translation difference that can be recovered by phase correlation.

Recover rotation and scaling differences with log-polar transform
=================================================================

In this second example, the images differ by both rotation and scaling (note
the axis tick values). By remapping these images into log-polar space,
we can recover rotation as before, and now also scaling, by phase
correlation.

Register rotation and scaling on a translated image
=================================================================

The above examples only work when the images to be registered share a
center. However, it is more often the case that there is also a translation
component to the difference between two images to be registered. One
approach to register rotation, scaling and translation is to first correct
for rotation and scaling, then solve for translation. It is possible to
resolve rotation and scaling differences for translated images by working on
the magnitude spectra of the Fourier-transformed images.

In this next example, we first show how the above approaches fail when two
images differ by rotation, scaling, and translation. We next show how
rotation and scaling differences, but not translation differences, are
apparent in the frequency magnitude spectra of the images. These differences
can be recovered by treating the magnitude spectra as images themselves, and
applying the same log-polar + phase correlation approach taken above.
