Description: 1 SIFT course of development
SIFT algorithm by DGLowe in 1999, the perfect summary of 2004. Later Y.Ke its description of the sub-part of the histogram with PCA instead of its improvement.
2 the SIFT main idea
The SIFT algorithm is an algorithm to extract local features in scale space to find the extreme point of the extraction location, scale, rotation invariant.
3 the main features of the SIFT algorithm:
a) SIFT feature is the local characteristics of the image, zoom, rotate, scale, brightness change to maintain invariance, the perspective changes, affine transformation, the noise also maintain a certain degree of stability.
b) unique (Distinctiveness), informative, and mass characteristics database for fast, accurate matching [23].
c) large amounts, even if a handful of objects can also produce a large number of SIFT feature vectors.
d) high-speed and optimized SIFT matching algorithm can even achieve real-time requirements.
e) The scalability can be very convenient fe
