Note that reference 20 proposed the use of Gabor Wavelets as an image descriptor in 1978.

Journal reference 10 and 11 as well as conference reference 19 proposed use of a scale invariant description now known as "Natural Interest Points", developed in the late 1970's. This technique is now employed by the SIFT operator to achieve scale invariance.

Conference paper 14 and journal paper 6 propose local histograms of gradient orientation, also used in SIFT.
