Intel MediaSDK Lens distortion correction (using RAW accelerator) can’t get the same corrected image as PTGUI and Matlab,even using the same parameters: a b c d.
1.The meida_raw_accelerator_man.pdf describes the 3rd degree polynomial for correcting lens distortion :
After doing some research and reading articles,we found the polynomial for correcting lens distortion should be:
2.We use polynomial 
Set parameters value: a=0.0925 b=-0.2676 c=-0.0997c=1.2755

PTGUI result: result_ptgui.bmp
Matlab result:result_matlab.bmp

x0 = m/2;
y0 = n/2;
for u=1:m
for v=1:n
r = sqrt((u-x0)^2+(v-y0)^2);
rt = polyval(P,r/x0)*r;
if r ==0
C(u,v,1)=A(x0,y0,1);
C(u,v,2)=A(x0,y0,2);
C(u,v,3)=A(x0,y0,3);
else
i = fix((u-x0)*rt/r)+x0;
j = fix((v-y0)*rt/r)+y0;
C(u,v,1)=A(i,j,1);
C(u,v,2)=A(i,j,2);
C(u,v,3)=A(i,j,3);

MediaSDK program: sample_camera_d.exe
MediaSDK command line:
sample_camera_d.exe -i bayer_circle.raw -f bggr -b 16 -w 4000 -h 3000 -lens 0.0925 -0.2676 -0.0997 1.2755 -o result_mediasdk_
PTGUI and Matlab can get the same result with the same params a,b,c and d. But the MediaSDK lens correction fails to get the same result under the same a b c d.
Now ,we call parameters of PTGUI and Matlab as a,b,c,d. The params of MediaSDK are am bm cm dm.we want to know that :
(1)we know the value of the params a b c and d, how to set the value of am bm cm dm to get the same corrected image as PTGUI and Matlab.
(2)What’s the relationship between a b c d and am bm cm dm
(3)Does mediaSDK use polynomial 
ps.does not the sample_camera.exe support the argb16 input format? the problem is described in the topic:
