Detailed Description

Flann-based descriptor matcher.

This matcher trains cv::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 flann::Index does not support this. :

Member Function Documentation

◆ add()

virtual void cv::FlannBasedMatcher::add ( InputArrayOfArrays descriptors )

virtual

Adds descriptors to train a CPU(trainDescCollectionis) or GPU(utrainDescCollectionis) descriptor collection.

Parameters

descriptors Descriptors to add. Each descriptors[i] is a set of descriptors from the same train image.

Reimplemented from cv::DescriptorMatcher.

◆ checkMasks()

		int	k,
		InputArray	mask = `noArray()`,
		bool	compactResult = `false`
	)		const

inherited

Finds the k best matches for each descriptor from a query set.

Parameters

queryDescriptors	Query set of descriptors.
trainDescriptors	Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
mask	Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of descriptors.
matches	Matches. Each matches[i] is k or less matches for the same query descriptor.
k	Count of best matches found per each query descriptor or less if a query descriptor has less than k possible matches in total.
compactResult	Parameter 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 DescriptorMatcher::match methods find several best matches for each query descriptor. The matches are returned in the distance increasing order. See DescriptorMatcher::match for the details about query and train descriptors.

◆ knnMatch() [2/2]

void cv::DescriptorMatcher::knnMatch	(	InputArray	queryDescriptors,
		std::vector< std::vector< DMatch > > &	matches,

		InputArrayOfArrays	masks = `noArray()`,
		bool	compactResult = `false`
	)

inherited

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

Parameters

queryDescriptors	Query set of descriptors.
matches	Matches. Each matches[i] is k or less matches for the same query descriptor.
k	Count of best matches found per each query descriptor or less if a query descriptor has less than k possible matches in total.
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].
compactResult	Parameter 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.

In fact the matching is implemented only by the following two methods.

These methods suppose that the class object has been trained already. Public match methods call these methods after calling train().

Implements cv::DescriptorMatcher.

◆ 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).

◆ loadFromString()

		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);

◆ match() [1/2]

void cv::DescriptorMatcher::match	(	InputArray	queryDescriptors,
		InputArray	trainDescriptors,
		std::vector< DMatch > &	matches,
		InputArray	mask = `noArray()`
	)		const

inherited

Finds the best match for each descriptor from a query set.

Parameters

queryDescriptors	Query set of descriptors.
trainDescriptors	Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
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.
mask	Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of descriptors.

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.

◆ match() [2/2]

void cv::DescriptorMatcher::match	(	InputArray	queryDescriptors,
		std::vector< DMatch > &	matches,
		InputArrayOfArrays	masks = `noArray()`
	)

inherited

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

Parameters

queryDescriptors	Query set of descriptors.
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.
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].

◆ radiusMatch() [1/2]

void cv::DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch	(	InputArray	queryDescriptors,
		InputArray	trainDescriptors,
		std::vector< std::vector< DMatch > > &	matches,
		float	maxDistance,
		InputArray	mask = `noArray()`,
		bool	compactResult = `false`
	)		const

inherited

For each query descriptor, finds the training descriptors not farther than the specified distance.

Parameters

queryDescriptors	Query set of descriptors.
trainDescriptors	Train set of descriptors. This set is not added to the train descriptors collection stored in the class object.
matches	Found matches.
compactResult	Parameter 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.
maxDistance	Threshold for the distance between matched descriptors. Distance means here metric distance (e.g. Hamming distance), not the distance between coordinates (which is measured in Pixels)!
mask	Mask specifying permissible matches between an input query and train matrices of 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.

◆ radiusMatch() [2/2]

void cv::DescriptorMatcher::radiusMatch	(	InputArray	queryDescriptors,
		std::vector< std::vector< DMatch > > &	matches,
		float	maxDistance,

inherited

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

compactResult	Parameter 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.
