"We propose a novel method for the refinement of Maximally Stable Extremal Region (MSER) boundaries to sub-pixel precision by taking into account the intensity function in the 2x2 neighborhood of the contour points. The proposed method improves the repeatability and precision of Local Affine Frames (LAFs) constructed on extremal regions. Additionally, we propose a novel method for detection of local curvature extrema on the refined contour. Experimental evaluation on publicly available datasets shows that matching with the modified LAFs leads to a higher number of correspondences and a higher inlier ratio in more than 80% of the test image pairs. Since the processing time of the contour refinement is negligible, there is no reason not to include the algorithms as a standard part of the MSER detector and LAF constructions." .
