Influence of Neighborhood Size and Cross-Correlation Peak-Fitting Method on Location Accuracy.

ABSTRACT: A known technique to obtain subpixel resolution by using object tracking through cross-correlation consists of interpolating the obtained correlation function and then refining peak location. Although the technique provides accurate results, peak location is usually biased toward the closest integer coordinate. This effect is known as the peak-locking error and it strongly limits this calculation technique's experimental accuracy. This error may differ depending on the scene and algorithm used to fit and interpolate the correlation peak, but in general, it may be attributed to a sampling problem and the presence of aliasing. Many studies in the literature analyze this effect in the Fourier domain. Here, we propose an alternative analysis on the spatial domain. According to our interpretation, the peak-locking error may be produced by a non-symmetrical sample distribution, thus provoking a bias in the result. According to this, the peak interpolant function, the size of the local domain and low-pass filters play a relevant role in diminishing the error. Our study explores these effects on different samples taken from the DIC Challenge database, and the results show that, in general, peak fitting with a Gaussian function on a relatively large domain provides the most accurate results.

Project description:Pair atomic density fitting (PADF) has been identified as a promising strategy to reduce the scaling with system size of quantum chemical methods for the calculation of the correlation energy like the direct random-phase approximation (RPA) or second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). PADF can however introduce large errors in correlation energies as the two-electron interaction energy is not guaranteed to be bounded from below. This issue can be partially alleviated by using very large fit sets, but this comes at the price of reduced efficiency and having to deal with near-linear dependencies in the fit set. One posibility is to use global density fitting (DF), but in this work, we introduce an alternative methodology to overcome this problem that preserves the intrinsically favorable scaling of PADF. We first regularize the Fock matrix by projecting out parts of the basis set which gives rise to orbital products that are hard to describe by PADF. After having thus obtained a reliable self-consistent field solution, we then also apply this projector to the orbital coefficient matrix to improve the precision of PADF-MP2 and PADF-RPA. We systematically assess the accuracy of this new approach in a numerical atomic orbital framework using Slater type orbitals (STO) and correlation consistent Gaussian type basis sets up to quintuple-ζ quality for systems with more than 200 atoms. For the small and medium systems in the S66 database we show the maximum deviation of PADF-MP2 and PADF-RPA relative correlation energies to DF-MP2 and DF-RPA reference results to be 0.07 and 0.14 kcal/mol, respectively. When the new projector method is used, the errors only slightly increase for large molecules and also when moderately sized fit sets are used the resulting errors are well under control. Finally, we demonstrate the computational efficiency of our algorithm by calculating the interaction energies of large, non-covalently bound complexes with more than 1000 atoms and 20000 atomic orbitals at the RPA@PBE/CC-pVTZ level of theory.
