How to crop a CvMat in OpenCV?

OpenCV has region of interest functions which you may find useful. If you are using the cv::Mat then you could use something like the following. // You mention that you start with a CVMat* imagesource CVMat * imagesource; // Transform it into the C++ cv::Mat format cv::Mat image(imagesource); // Setup a rectangle to define your … Read more

How to use OpenCV SimpleBlobDetector

Python: Reads image blob.jpg and performs blob detection with different parameters. #!/usr/bin/python # Standard imports import cv2 import numpy as np; # Read image im = cv2.imread(“blob.jpg”) # Setup SimpleBlobDetector parameters. params = cv2.SimpleBlobDetector_Params() # Change thresholds params.minThreshold = 10 params.maxThreshold = 200 # Filter by Area. params.filterByArea = True params.minArea = 1500 # Filter … Read more

How to load png images with 4 channels?

If you are using OpenCV 2 or OpenCV 3 you should use IMREAD_* flags (as mentioned at here). C++ using namespace cv; Mat image = imread(“image.png”, IMREAD_UNCHANGED); Python import cv2 im = cv2.imread(“image.png”, cv2.IMREAD_UNCHANGED)

Sift implementation with OpenCV 2.2

Below is a minimal example: #include <opencv/cv.h> #include <opencv/highgui.h> int main(int argc, const char* argv[]) { const cv::Mat input = cv::imread(“input.jpg”, 0); //Load as grayscale cv::SiftFeatureDetector detector; std::vector<cv::KeyPoint> keypoints; detector.detect(input, keypoints); // Add results to image and save. cv::Mat output; cv::drawKeypoints(input, keypoints, output); cv::imwrite(“sift_result.jpg”, output); return 0; } Tested on OpenCV 2.3

OpenCV / SURF How to generate a image hash / fingerprint / signature out of the descriptors?

The feature data you mention (position, laplacian, size, orientation, hessian) is insufficient for your purpose (these are actually the less relevant parts of the descriptor if you want to do matching). The data you want to look at are the “descriptors” (the 4th argument): void cvExtractSURF(const CvArr* image, const CvArr* mask, CvSeq** keypoints, CvSeq** descriptors, … Read more
