FAST
--------
.. c:function:: void FAST( const Mat& image, vector<KeyPoint>& keypoints, int threshold, bool nonmaxSupression=true )
Detects corners using the FAST algorithm by E. Rosten (*Machine learning for high-speed corner detection*, 2006).
:param image: Image where keypoints (corners) are detected.
:param keypoints: Keypoints detected on the image.
:param threshold: Threshold on difference between intensity of the central pixel and pixels on a circle around this pixel. See the algorithm description below.
:param nonmaxSupression: If it is true, non-maximum supression is applied to detected corners (keypoints).

MSER
----
.. c:type:: MSER
Maximally stable extremal region extractor ::
class MSER : public CvMSERParams
{
public:
// default constructor
MSER();
// constructor that initializes all the algorithm parameters
MSER( int _delta, int _min_area, int _max_area,
float _max_variation, float _min_diversity,
int _max_evolution, double _area_threshold,

// each encoded as a contour (vector<Point>, see findContours)
// the optional mask marks the area where MSERs are searched for

The class encapsulates all the parameters of the MSER extraction algorithm (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximally_stable_extremal_regions).

// the full constructor that initializes all the algorithm parameters:
// maxSize - maximum size of the features. The following
// values of the parameter are supported:
// 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, 16, 22, 23, 32, 45, 46, 64, 90, 128
// responseThreshold - threshold for the approximated laplacian,
// used to eliminate weak features. The larger it is,
// the less features will be retrieved
// lineThresholdProjected - another threshold for the laplacian to
// eliminate edges
// lineThresholdBinarized - another threshold for the feature
// size to eliminate edges.
// The larger the 2nd threshold, the more points you get.
StarDetector(int maxSize, int responseThreshold,
int lineThresholdProjected,
int lineThresholdBinarized,
int suppressNonmaxSize);
// finds keypoints in an image
void operator()(const Mat& image, vector<KeyPoint>& keypoints) const;

.. index:: SURF

Class for extracting Speeded Up Robust Features from an image ::

// constructor that initializes all the algorithm parameters
SURF(double _hessianThreshold, int _nOctaves=4,

// descriptorSize() elements of this vector.
void operator()(const Mat& img, const Mat& mask,
vector<KeyPoint>& keypoints,
vector<float>& descriptors,
bool useProvidedKeypoints=false) const;
};
The class implements the Speeded Up Robust Features descriptor [Bay06].
There is a fast multi-scale Hessian keypoint detector that can be used to find keypoints
(which is the default option). But the descriptors can be also computed for the user-specified keypoints.
The algorithm can be used for object tracking and localization, image stitching, and so on. See the ``find_obj.cpp`` demo in OpenCV samples directory.
