SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) is one of most popular approach for feature detection and matching. Many parallelized algorithms have been proposed to accelerate SIFT to apply into real-time systems. This paper divides the researches into three different categories, that is, optimizing parallel algorithms based on general purpose multi-core processors, designing customized multi-core processor dedicated for SIFT and implementing SIFT based FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). Overview of the three type researches and analysis of task-level parallelism are presented in this paper.
