Member Function Documentation

◆ clear()

virtual void cv::Algorithm::clear ( )

inlinevirtualinherited

Clears the algorithm state.

Reimplemented in cv::FlannBasedMatcher, and cv::DescriptorMatcher.

◆ compute() [1/2]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::compute	(	InputArray	image,
		std::vector< KeyPoint > &	keypoints,
		OutputArray	descriptors
	)

virtual

Computes the descriptors for a set of keypoints detected in an image (first variant) or image set (second variant).

Parameters

image	Image.
keypoints	Input collection of keypoints. Keypoints for which a descriptor cannot be computed are removed. Sometimes new keypoints can be added, for example: SIFT duplicates keypoint with several dominant orientations (for each orientation).
descriptors	Computed descriptors. In the second variant of the method descriptors[i] are descriptors computed for a keypoints[i]. Row j is the keypoints (or keypoints[i]) is the descriptor for keypoint j-th keypoint.

◆ compute() [2/2]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::compute	(	InputArrayOfArrays	images,
		std::vector< std::vector< KeyPoint > > &	keypoints,
		OutputArrayOfArrays	descriptors
	)

virtual

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

images	Image set.
keypoints	Input collection of keypoints. Keypoints for which a descriptor cannot be computed are removed. Sometimes new keypoints can be added, for example: SIFT duplicates keypoint with several dominant orientations (for each orientation).
descriptors	Computed descriptors. In the second variant of the method descriptors[i] are descriptors computed for a keypoints[i]. Row j is the keypoints (or keypoints[i]) is the descriptor for keypoint j-th keypoint.

◆ defaultNorm()

virtual int cv::Feature2D::defaultNorm ( ) const

virtual

◆ descriptorSize()

virtual int cv::Feature2D::descriptorSize ( ) const

virtual

◆ descriptorType()

virtual int cv::Feature2D::descriptorType ( ) const

virtual

◆ detect() [1/2]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::detect	(	InputArray	image,
		std::vector< KeyPoint > &	keypoints,
		InputArray	mask = `noArray()`
	)

virtual

Detects keypoints in an image (first variant) or image set (second variant).

Parameters

image	Image.
keypoints	The detected keypoints. In the second variant of the method keypoints[i] is a set of keypoints detected in images[i] .
mask	Mask specifying where to look for keypoints (optional). It must be a 8-bit integer matrix with non-zero values in the region of interest.

◆ detect() [2/2]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::detect	(	InputArrayOfArrays	images,
		std::vector< std::vector< KeyPoint > > &	keypoints,
		InputArrayOfArrays	masks = `noArray()`
	)

virtual

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

images	Image set.
keypoints	The detected keypoints. In the second variant of the method keypoints[i] is a set of keypoints detected in images[i] .
masks	Masks for each input image specifying where to look for keypoints (optional). masks[i] is a mask for images[i].

◆ detectAndCompute()

virtual void cv::Feature2D::detectAndCompute	(	InputArray	image,
		InputArray	mask,
		std::vector< KeyPoint > &	keypoints,
		OutputArray	descriptors,
		bool	useProvidedKeypoints = `false`
	)

virtual

Detects keypoints and computes the descriptors.

◆ empty()

virtual bool cv::Feature2D::empty ( ) const

virtual

Return true if detector object is empty.

Reimplemented from cv::Algorithm.

◆ getDefaultName()

virtual String cv::Feature2D::getDefaultName ( ) const

virtual

Returns the algorithm string identifier.

This string is used as top level xml/yml node tag when the object is saved to a file or string.

Reimplemented from cv::Algorithm.

Reimplemented in cv::AKAZE, cv::KAZE, cv::SimpleBlobDetector, cv::GFTTDetector, cv::AgastFeatureDetector, cv::FastFeatureDetector, cv::MSER, cv::ORB, and cv::BRISK.

◆ load()

template<typename _Tp >

static Ptr<_Tp> cv::Algorithm::load	(	const String &	filename,
		const String &	objname = `String()`
	)

inlinestaticinherited

Loads algorithm from the file.

Parameters

filename	Name of the file to read.
objname	The optional name of the node to read (if empty, the first top-level node will be used)

This is static template method of Algorithm. It's usage is following (in the case of SVM):

Ptr<SVM> svm = Algorithm::load<SVM>("my_svm_model.xml");

In order to make this method work, the derived class must overwrite Algorithm::read(const FileNode& fn).

References CV_Assert, cv::FileNode::empty(), cv::FileStorage::getFirstTopLevelNode(), cv::FileStorage::isOpened(), and cv::FileStorage::READ.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ loadFromString()

template<typename _Tp >

static Ptr<_Tp> cv::Algorithm::loadFromString	(	const String &	strModel,
		const String &	objname = `String()`
	)

inlinestaticinherited

Loads algorithm from a String.

Parameters

strModel	The string variable containing the model you want to load.
objname	The optional name of the node to read (if empty, the first top-level node will be used)

This is static template method of Algorithm. It's usage is following (in the case of SVM):

Ptr<SVM> svm = Algorithm::loadFromString<SVM>(myStringModel);

References CV_WRAP, cv::FileNode::empty(), cv::FileStorage::getFirstTopLevelNode(), cv::FileStorage::MEMORY, and cv::FileStorage::READ.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ read() [1/2]

void cv::Feature2D::read ( const String & fileName )

◆ read() [2/2]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::read ( const FileNode & fn )

virtual

Reads algorithm parameters from a file storage.

Reimplemented from cv::Algorithm.

◆ save()

virtual void cv::Algorithm::save ( const String & filename ) const

virtualinherited

Saves the algorithm to a file.

In order to make this method work, the derived class must implement Algorithm::write(FileStorage& fs).

void cv::Feature2D::write ( const String & fileName ) const

◆ write() [2/3]

virtual void cv::Feature2D::write ( FileStorage & fs ) const

Reimplemented from cv::Algorithm.

◆ write() [3/3]

void cv::Feature2D::write	(	const Ptr< FileStorage > &	fs,
		const String &	name = `String()`
	)		const
