Common Interfaces of Descriptor Matchers
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: cpp
|
|
|
|
Matchers of keypoint descriptors in OpenCV have wrappers with a common interface that enables you to easily switch
|
|
between different algorithms solving the same problem. This section is devoted to matching descriptors
|
|
that are represented as vectors in a multidimensional space. All objects that implement ``vector``
|
|
descriptor matchers inherit
|
|
:ref:`DescriptorMatcher` interface.

|
|
.. ocv:class:: DMatch
|
|
|
|
Class for matching keypoint descriptors: query descriptor index,
|
|
train descriptor index, train image index, and distance between descriptors ::
|
|
|

-----------------
|
|
.. c:type:: DescriptorMatcher
|
|
|
|
Abstract base class for matching keypoint descriptors. It has two groups
|
|
of match methods: for matching descriptors of an image with another image or
|
|
with an image set. ::
|
|
|
|
class DescriptorMatcher

};
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::add
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::add
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void add( const vector<Mat>& descriptors )
|
|
|
|
Adds descriptors to train a descriptor collection. If the collection ``trainDescCollectionis`` is not empty, the new descriptors are added to existing train descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param descriptors: Descriptors to add. Each ``descriptors[i]`` is a set of descriptors from the same train image.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::getTrainDescriptors
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::getTrainDescriptors
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: const vector<Mat>& getTrainDescriptors() const
|
|
|
|
Returns a constant link to the train descriptor collection ``trainDescCollection`` .
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::clear
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::clear
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::clear()
|
|
|
|
Clears the train descriptor collection.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::empty
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::empty
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: bool DescriptorMatcher::empty() const
|
|
|
|
Returns true if there are no train descriptors in the collection.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::isMaskSupported
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::isMaskSupported
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: bool DescriptorMatcher::isMaskSupported()
|
|
|
|
Returns true if the descriptor matcher supports masking permissible matches.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::train
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::train
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::train()
|
|
|
|
Trains a descriptor matcher (for example, the flann index). In all methods to match, the method ``train()`` is run every time before matching. Some descriptor matchers (for example, ``BruteForceMatcher``) have an empty implementation of this method. Other matchers really train their inner structures (for example, ``FlannBasedMatcher`` trains ``flann::Index`` ).
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::match
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::match
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::match( const Mat& queryDescriptors, const Mat& trainDescriptors, vector<DMatch>& matches, const Mat& mask=Mat() ) const
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::match( const Mat& queryDescriptors, vector<DMatch>& matches, const vector<Mat>& masks=vector<Mat>() )
|
|
|
|
Finds the best match for each descriptor from a query set.
|
|
|
|
:param queryDescriptors: Query set of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param trainDescriptors: Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
|
|
|
|
:param matches: Matches. If a query descriptor is masked out in ``mask`` , no match is added for this descriptor. So, ``matches`` size may be smaller than the query descriptors count.
|
|
|
|
:param mask: Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param masks: Set of masks. Each ``masks[i]`` specifies permissible matches between the input query descriptors and stored train descriptors from the i-th image ``trainDescCollection[i]``.
|
|
|
|
In the first variant of this method, the train descriptors are passed as an input argument. In the second variant of the method, train descriptors collection that was set by ``DescriptorMatcher::add`` is used. Optional mask (or masks) can be passed to specify which query and training descriptors can be matched. Namely, ``queryDescriptors[i]`` can be matched with ``trainDescriptors[j]`` only if ``mask.at<uchar>(i,j)`` is non-zero.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::knnMatch
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::knnMatch
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::knnMatch( const Mat& queryDescriptors, const Mat& trainDescriptors, vector<vector<DMatch> >& matches, int k, const Mat& mask=Mat(), bool compactResult=false ) const
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::knnMatch( const Mat& queryDescriptors, vector<vector<DMatch> >& matches, int k, const vector<Mat>& masks=vector<Mat>(), bool compactResult=false )
|
|
|
|
Finds the k best matches for each descriptor from a query set.
|
|
|
|
:param queryDescriptors: Query set of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param trainDescriptors: Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
|
|
|
|
:param mask: Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param masks: Set of masks. Each ``masks[i]`` specifies permissible matches between the input query descriptors and stored train descriptors from the i-th image ``trainDescCollection[i]``.
|
|
|
|
:param matches: Matches. Each ``matches[i]`` is k or less matches for the same query descriptor.
|
|
|
|
:param k: Count of best matches found per each query descriptor or less if a query descriptor has less than k possible matches in total.
|
|
|
|
:param compactResult: Parameter that is used when the mask (or masks) is not empty. If ``compactResult`` is false, the ``matches`` vector has the same size as ``queryDescriptors`` rows. If ``compactResult`` is true, the ``matches`` vector does not contain matches for fully masked-out query descriptors.
|
|
|
|
These extended variants of :ocv:func:`DescriptorMatcher::match` methods find several best matches for each query descriptor. The matches are returned in the distance increasing order. See :ocv:func:`DescriptorMatcher::match` for the details about query and train descriptors.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch( const Mat& queryDescriptors, const Mat& trainDescriptors, vector<vector<DMatch> >& matches, float maxDistance, const Mat& mask=Mat(), bool compactResult=false ) const
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch( const Mat& queryDescriptors, vector<vector<DMatch> >& matches, float maxDistance, const vector<Mat>& masks=vector<Mat>(), bool compactResult=false )
|
|
|
|
For each query descriptor, finds the training descriptors not farther than the specified distance.
|
|
|
|
:param queryDescriptors: Query set of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param trainDescriptors: Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
|
|
|
|
:param mask: Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param masks: Set of masks. Each ``masks[i]`` specifies permissible matches between the input query descriptors and stored train descriptors from the i-th image ``trainDescCollection[i]``.
|
|
|
|
:param matches: The found matches.
|
|
|
|
:param compactResult: Parameter that is used when the mask (or masks) is not empty. If ``compactResult`` is false, the ``matches`` vector has the same size as ``queryDescriptors`` rows. If ``compactResult`` is true, the ``matches`` vector does not contain matches for fully masked-out query descriptors.
|
|
|
|
:param maxDistance: Threshold for the distance between matched descriptors.
|
|
|
|
For each query descriptor, the methods find such training descriptors that the distance between the query descriptor and the training descriptor is equal or smaller than ``maxDistance``. Found matches are returned in the distance increasing order.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::clone
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::clone
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<DescriptorMatcher> DescriptorMatcher::clone( bool emptyTrainData ) const
|
|
|
|
Clones the matcher.
|
|
|
|
:param emptyTrainData: If ``emptyTrainData`` is false, the method creates a deep copy of the object, that is, copies both parameters and train data. If ``emptyTrainData`` is true, the method creates an object copy with the current parameters but with empty train data.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: DescriptorMatcher::create
|
|
|
|
DescriptorMatcher::create
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<DescriptorMatcher> DescriptorMatcher::create( const string& descriptorMatcherType )
|
|
|
|
Creates a descriptor matcher of a given type with the default parameters (using default constructor).
|
|
|
|
:param descriptorMatcherType: Descriptor matcher type. Now the following matcher types are supported:
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
``BruteForce`` (it uses ``L2`` )
|
|
*
|
|
``BruteForce-L1``
|
|
*
|
|
``BruteForce-Hamming``
|
|
*
|
|
``BruteForce-HammingLUT``
|
|
*
|
|
``FlannBased``
|
|
|
|
.. index:: BruteForceMatcher
|
|
|
|
.. _BruteForceMatcher:
|
|
|
|
BruteForceMatcher
|
|
-----------------
|
|
.. c:type:: BruteForceMatcher
|
|
|
|
Brute-force descriptor matcher. For each descriptor in the first set, this matcher finds the closest descriptor in the second set by trying each one. This descriptor matcher supports masking permissible matches of descriptor sets. ::
|
|
|
|
template<class Distance>
|
|
class BruteForceMatcher : public DescriptorMatcher

|
protected:

}
|
|
|
|
|
|
For efficiency, ``BruteForceMatcher`` is used as a template parameterized with the distance type. For float descriptors, ``L2<float>`` is a common choice. The following distances are supported: ::

FlannBasedMatcher
|
|
-----------------
|
|
.. c:type:: FlannBasedMatcher
|
|
|
|
Flann-based descriptor matcher. This matcher trains :ref:`flann::Index` on a train descriptor collection and calls its nearest search methods to find the best matches. So, this matcher may be faster when matching a large train collection than the brute force matcher. ``FlannBasedMatcher`` does not support masking permissible matches of descriptor sets because :ocv:func:`flann::Index` does not support this. ::
