Automatic range image registration is a fundamental yet extremely difficult problem in machine vision. In this paper, we extend a promising registration algorithm (GICP) [6] for structured image data. The extended algorithm is based on a relaxation method combining the motion estimation results from the possible correspondences established by the GICP algorithm and those that are further ev aluated by an in verse validation procedure. A comparative study based on real images has shown that the extended algorithm is more accurate and robust than the original algorithm.
