Basic interface for all solvers.

Member Function Documentation

◆ clear()

virtual void cv::Algorithm::clear ( )
inlinevirtualinherited

Clears the algorithm state.

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

◆ empty()

virtual bool cv::Algorithm::empty ( ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Returns true if the Algorithm is empty (e.g.

in the very beginning or after unsuccessful read

Reimplemented in cv::DescriptorMatcher, cv::ml::StatModel, cv::Feature2D, and cv::BaseCascadeClassifier.

◆ getDefaultName()

virtual String cv::Algorithm::getDefaultName ( ) const
virtualinherited

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 in cv::AKAZE, cv::KAZE, cv::SimpleBlobDetector, cv::GFTTDetector, cv::AgastFeatureDetector, cv::FastFeatureDetector, cv::MSER, cv::ORB, cv::BRISK, and cv::Feature2D.

◆ getFunction()

virtual Ptr<Function> cv::MinProblemSolver::getFunction ( ) const
pure virtual

Getter for the optimized function.

The optimized function is represented by Function interface, which requires derivatives to implement the calc(double*) and getDim() methods to evaluate the function.

Returns
Smart-pointer to an object that implements Function interface - it represents the function that is being optimized. It can be empty, if no function was given so far.

◆ getTermCriteria()

virtual TermCriteria cv::MinProblemSolver::getTermCriteria ( ) const
pure virtual

Getter for the previously set terminal criteria for this algorithm.

Returns
Deep copy of the terminal criteria used at the moment.

◆ load()

template<typename _Tp >
static Ptr<_Tp> cv::Algorithm::load ( const String filename,
const String objname = String() 
)
inlinestaticinherited

Loads algorithm from the file.

Parameters
filenameName of the file to read.
objnameThe 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
strModelThe string variable containing the model you want to load.
objnameThe 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:

◆ minimize()

virtual double cv::MinProblemSolver::minimize ( InputOutputArray  x)
pure virtual

actually runs the algorithm and performs the minimization.

The sole input parameter determines the centroid of the starting simplex (roughly, it tells where to start), all the others (terminal criteria, initial step, function to be minimized) are supposed to be set via the setters before the call to this method or the default values (not always sensible) will be used.

Parameters
xThe initial point, that will become a centroid of an initial simplex. After the algorithm will terminate, it will be set to the point where the algorithm stops, the point of possible minimum.
Returns
The value of a function at the point found.

◆ read() [1/2]

virtual void cv::Algorithm::read ( const FileNode fn)
inlinevirtualinherited

Reads algorithm parameters from a file storage.

Reimplemented in cv::FlannBasedMatcher, cv::DescriptorMatcher, and cv::Feature2D.

◆ read() [2/2]

template<typename _Tp >
static Ptr<_Tp> cv::Algorithm::read ( const FileNode fn)
inlinestaticinherited

Reads algorithm from the file node.

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

cv::FileStorage fsRead("example.xml", FileStorage::READ);
Ptr<SVM> svm = Algorithm::read<SVM>(fsRead.root());

In order to make this method work, the derived class must overwrite Algorithm::read(const FileNode& fn) and also have static create() method without parameters (or with all the optional parameters)

◆ 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).

◆ setFunction()

virtual void cv::MinProblemSolver::setFunction ( const Ptr< Function > &  f)
pure virtual

Setter for the optimized function.

It should be called at least once before the call to* minimize(), as default value is not usable.

Parameters
fThe new function to optimize.

◆ setTermCriteria()

virtual void cv::MinProblemSolver::setTermCriteria ( const TermCriteria termcrit)
pure virtual

Set terminal criteria for solver.

This method is not necessary to be called before the first call to minimize(), as the default value is sensible.

Algorithm stops when the number of function evaluations done exceeds termcrit.maxCount, when the function values at the vertices of simplex are within termcrit.epsilon range or simplex becomes so small that it can enclosed in a box with termcrit.epsilon sides, whatever comes first.

Parameters
termcritTerminal criteria to be used, represented as cv::TermCriteria structure.

◆ write() [1/2]

virtual void cv::Algorithm::write ( FileStorage fs) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Stores algorithm parameters in a file storage.

Reimplemented in cv::FlannBasedMatcher, cv::DescriptorMatcher, and cv::Feature2D.

References CV_WRAP.

Referenced by cv::Feature2D::write(), and cv::DescriptorMatcher::write().

Here is the caller graph for this function:

◆ write() [2/2]

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

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