Feature Detection
=================
.. highlight:: cpp
Canny
---------
Finds edges in an image using the [Canny86]_ algorithm.
.. ocv:function:: void Canny( InputArray image, OutputArray edges, double threshold1, double threshold2, int apertureSize=3, bool L2gradient=false )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.Canny(image, threshold1, threshold2[, edges[, apertureSize[, L2gradient]]]) -> edges
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvCanny( const CvArr* image, CvArr* edges, double threshold1, double threshold2, int apertureSize=3 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.Canny(image, edges, threshold1, threshold2, apertureSize=3)-> None
:param image: Single-channel 8-bit input image.
:param edges: Output edge map. It has the same size and type as ``image`` .
:param threshold1: First threshold for the hysteresis procedure.
:param threshold2: Second threshold for the hysteresis procedure.
:param apertureSize: Aperture size for the :ocv:func:`Sobel` operator.
:param L2gradient: Flag indicating whether a more accurate :math:`L_2` norm :math:`=\sqrt{(dI/dx)^2 + (dI/dy)^2}` should be used to compute the image gradient magnitude ( ``L2gradient=true`` ), or a faster default :math:`L_1` norm :math:`=|dI/dx|+|dI/dy|` is enough ( ``L2gradient=false`` ).
The function finds edges in the input image ``image`` and marks them in the output map ``edges`` using the Canny algorithm. The smallest value between ``threshold1`` and ``threshold2`` is used for edge linking. The largest value is used to find initial segments of strong edges. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canny_edge_detector
cornerEigenValsAndVecs
----------------------
Calculates eigenvalues and eigenvectors of image blocks for corner detection.
.. ocv:function:: void cornerEigenValsAndVecs( InputArray src, OutputArray dst, int blockSize, int apertureSize, int borderType=BORDER_DEFAULT )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.cornerEigenValsAndVecs(src, blockSize, ksize[, dst[, borderType]]) -> dst
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvCornerEigenValsAndVecs( const CvArr* image, CvArr* eigenvv, int blockSize, int apertureSize=3 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.CornerEigenValsAndVecs(image, eigenvv, blockSize, apertureSize=3)-> None
:param src: Input single-channel 8-bit or floating-point image.
:param dst: Image to store the results. It has the same size as ``src`` and the type ``CV_32FC(6)`` .
:param blockSize: Neighborhood size (see details below).
:param apertureSize: Aperture parameter for the :ocv:func:`Sobel` operator.
:param boderType: Pixel extrapolation method. See :ocv:func:`borderInterpolate` .
For every pixel
:math:`p` , the function ``cornerEigenValsAndVecs`` considers a ``blockSize`` :math:`\times` ``blockSize`` neigborhood
:math:`S(p)` . It calculates the covariation matrix of derivatives over the neighborhood as:
.. math::
M = \begin{bmatrix} \sum _{S(p)}(dI/dx)^2 & \sum _{S(p)}(dI/dx dI/dy)^2 \\ \sum _{S(p)}(dI/dx dI/dy)^2 & \sum _{S(p)}(dI/dy)^2 \end{bmatrix}
where the derivatives are computed using the
:ocv:func:`Sobel` operator.
After that, it finds eigenvectors and eigenvalues of
:math:`M` and stores them in the destination image as
:math:`(\lambda_1, \lambda_2, x_1, y_1, x_2, y_2)` where
* :math:`\lambda_1, \lambda_2` are the non-sorted eigenvalues of :math:`M`
* :math:`x_1, y_1` are the eigenvectors corresponding to :math:`\lambda_1`
* :math:`x_2, y_2` are the eigenvectors corresponding to :math:`\lambda_2`
The output of the function can be used for robust edge or corner detection.

cornerHarris
------------
Harris edge detector.
.. ocv:function:: void cornerHarris( InputArray src, OutputArray dst, int blockSize, int apertureSize, double k, int borderType=BORDER_DEFAULT )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.cornerHarris(src, blockSize, ksize, k[, dst[, borderType]]) -> dst
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvCornerHarris( const CvArr* image, CvArr* harrisDst, int blockSize, int apertureSize=3, double k=0.04 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.CornerHarris(image, harrisDst, blockSize, apertureSize=3, k=0.04)-> None
:param src: Input single-channel 8-bit or floating-point image.
:param dst: Image to store the Harris detector responses. It has the type ``CV_32FC1`` and the same size as ``src`` .
:param blockSize: Neighborhood size (see the details on :ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` ).
:param apertureSize: Aperture parameter for the :ocv:func:`Sobel` operator.
:param k: Harris detector free parameter. See the formula below.
:param boderType: Pixel extrapolation method. See :ocv:func:`borderInterpolate` .
The function runs the Harris edge detector on the image. Similarly to
:ocv:func:`cornerMinEigenVal` and
:ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` , for each pixel
:math:`(x, y)` it calculates a
:math:`2\times2` gradient covariance matrix
:math:`M^{(x,y)}` over a
:math:`\texttt{blockSize} \times \texttt{blockSize}` neighborhood. Then, it computes the following characteristic:
.. math::
\texttt{dst} (x,y) = \mathrm{det} M^{(x,y)} - k \cdot \left ( \mathrm{tr} M^{(x,y)} \right )^2
Corners in the image can be found as the local maxima of this response map.
cornerMinEigenVal
-----------------
Calculates the minimal eigenvalue of gradient matrices for corner detection.
.. ocv:function:: void cornerMinEigenVal( InputArray src, OutputArray dst, int blockSize, int apertureSize=3, int borderType=BORDER_DEFAULT )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.cornerMinEigenVal(src, blockSize[, dst[, ksize[, borderType]]]) -> dst
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvCornerMinEigenVal( const CvArr* image, CvArr* eigenval, int blockSize, int apertureSize=3 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.CornerMinEigenVal(image, eigenval, blockSize, apertureSize=3)-> None
:param src: Input single-channel 8-bit or floating-point image.
:param dst: Image to store the minimal eigenvalues. It has the type ``CV_32FC1`` and the same size as ``src`` .
:param blockSize: Neighborhood size (see the details on :ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` ).
:param apertureSize: Aperture parameter for the :ocv:func:`Sobel` operator.
:param boderType: Pixel extrapolation method. See :ocv:func:`borderInterpolate` .
The function is similar to
:ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` but it calculates and stores only the minimal eigenvalue of the covariance matrix of derivatives, that is,
:math:`\min(\lambda_1, \lambda_2)` in terms of the formulae in the
:ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` description.
cornerSubPix
----------------
Refines the corner locations.
.. ocv:function:: void cornerSubPix( InputArray image, InputOutputArray corners, Size winSize, Size zeroZone, TermCriteria criteria )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.cornerSubPix(image, corners, winSize, zeroZone, criteria) -> None
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvFindCornerSubPix( const CvArr* image, CvPoint2D32f* corners, int count, CvSize winSize, CvSize zeroZone, CvTermCriteria criteria )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.FindCornerSubPix(image, corners, winSize, zeroZone, criteria)-> corners
:param image: Input image.
:param corners: Initial coordinates of the input corners and refined coordinates provided for output.
:param winSize: Half of the side length of the search window. For example, if ``winSize=Size(5,5)`` , then a :math:`5*2+1 \times 5*2+1 = 11 \times 11` search window is used.
:param zeroZone: Half of the size of the dead region in the middle of the search zone over which the summation in the formula below is not done. It is used sometimes to avoid possible singularities of the autocorrelation matrix. The value of (-1,-1) indicates that there is no such a size.
:param criteria: Criteria for termination of the iterative process of corner refinement. That is, the process of corner position refinement stops either after ``criteria.maxCount`` iterations or when the corner position moves by less than ``criteria.epsilon`` on some iteration.
The function iterates to find the sub-pixel accurate location of corners or radial saddle points, as shown on the figure below.
.. image:: pics/cornersubpix.png
Sub-pixel accurate corner locator is based on the observation that every vector from the center
:math:`q` to a point
:math:`p` located within a neighborhood of
:math:`q` is orthogonal to the image gradient at
:math:`p` subject to image and measurement noise. Consider the expression:
.. math::
\epsilon _i = {DI_{p_i}}^T \cdot (q - p_i)
where
:math:`{DI_{p_i}}` is an image gradient at one of the points
:math:`p_i` in a neighborhood of
:math:`q` . The value of
:math:`q` is to be found so that
:math:`\epsilon_i` is minimized. A system of equations may be set up with
:math:`\epsilon_i` set to zero:
.. math::
\sum _i(DI_{p_i} \cdot {DI_{p_i}}^T) - \sum _i(DI_{p_i} \cdot {DI_{p_i}}^T \cdot p_i)
where the gradients are summed within a neighborhood ("search window") of
:math:`q` . Calling the first gradient term
:math:`G` and the second gradient term
:math:`b` gives:
.. math::
q = G^{-1} \cdot b
The algorithm sets the center of the neighborhood window at this new center
:math:`q` and then iterates until the center stays within a set threshold.
goodFeaturesToTrack
-------------------
Determines strong corners on an image.
.. ocv:function:: void goodFeaturesToTrack( InputArray image, OutputArray corners, int maxCorners, double qualityLevel, double minDistance, InputArray mask=noArray(), int blockSize=3, bool useHarrisDetector=false, double k=0.04 )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.goodFeaturesToTrack(image, maxCorners, qualityLevel, minDistance[, corners[, mask[, blockSize[, useHarrisDetector[, k]]]]]) -> corners
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvGoodFeaturesToTrack( const CvArr* image, CvArr* eigImage, CvArr* tempImage, CvPoint2D32f* corners, int* cornerCount, double qualityLevel, double minDistance, const CvArr* mask=NULL, int blockSize=3, int useHarris=0, double k=0.04 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.GoodFeaturesToTrack(image, eigImage, tempImage, cornerCount, qualityLevel, minDistance, mask=None, blockSize=3, useHarris=0, k=0.04)-> corners
:param image: Input 8-bit or floating-point 32-bit, single-channel image.
:param corners: Output vector of detected corners.
:param maxCorners: Maximum number of corners to return. If there are more corners than are found, the strongest of them is returned.
:param qualityLevel: Parameter characterizing the minimal accepted quality of image corners. The parameter value is multiplied by the best corner quality measure, which is the minimal eigenvalue (see :ocv:func:`cornerMinEigenVal` ) or the Harris function response (see :ocv:func:`cornerHarris` ). The corners with the quality measure less than the product are rejected. For example, if the best corner has the quality measure = 1500, and the ``qualityLevel=0.01`` , then all the corners with the quality measure less than 15 are rejected.
:param minDistance: Minimum possible Euclidean distance between the returned corners.
:param mask: Optional region of interest. If the image is not empty (it needs to have the type ``CV_8UC1`` and the same size as ``image`` ), it specifies the region in which the corners are detected.
:param blockSize: Size of an average block for computing a derivative covariation matrix over each pixel neighborhood. See :ocv:func:`cornerEigenValsAndVecs` .
:param useHarrisDetector: Parameter indicating whether to use a Harris detector (see :ocv:func:`cornerHarris`) or :ocv:func:`cornerMinEigenVal`.
:param k: Free parameter of the Harris detector.
The function finds the most prominent corners in the image or in the specified image region, as described in [Shi94]_:
#.
Function calculates the corner quality measure at every source image pixel using the
:ocv:func:`cornerMinEigenVal` or
:ocv:func:`cornerHarris` .
#.
Function performs a non-maximum suppression (the local maximums in *3 x 3* neighborhood are retained).
#.
The corners with the minimal eigenvalue less than
:math:`\texttt{qualityLevel} \cdot \max_{x,y} qualityMeasureMap(x,y)` are rejected.
#.
The remaining corners are sorted by the quality measure in the descending order.
#.
Function throws away each corner for which there is a stronger corner at a distance less than ``maxDistance``.
The function can be used to initialize a point-based tracker of an object.
.. note:: If the function is called with different values ``A`` and ``B`` of the parameter ``qualityLevel`` , and ``A`` > {B}, the vector of returned corners with ``qualityLevel=A`` will be the prefix of the output vector with ``qualityLevel=B`` .

:ocv:func:`cornerHarris`,
:ocv:func:`calcOpticalFlowPyrLK`,
:ocv:func:`estimateRigidTransform`,
:ocv:class:`PlanarObjectDetector`,
:ocv:class:`OneWayDescriptor`
HoughCircles
------------
Finds circles in a grayscale image using the Hough transform.
.. ocv:function:: void HoughCircles( InputArray image, OutputArray circles, int method, double dp, double minDist, double param1=100, double param2=100, int minRadius=0, int maxRadius=0 )
.. ocv:cfunction:: CvSeq* cvHoughCircles( CvArr* image, CvMemStorage* circleStorage, int method, double dp, double minDist, double param1=100, double param2=100, int minRadius=0, int maxRadius=0 )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.HoughCircles(image, method, dp, minDist[, circles[, param1[, param2[, minRadius[, maxRadius]]]]]) -> circles
:param image: 8-bit, single-channel, grayscale input image.
:param circles: Output vector of found circles. Each vector is encoded as a 3-element floating-point vector :math:`(x, y, radius)` .
:param circleStorage: In C function this is a memory storage that will contain the output sequence of found circles.
:param method: Detection method to use. Currently, the only implemented method is ``CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT`` , which is basically *21HT* , described in [Yuen90]_.
:param dp: Inverse ratio of the accumulator resolution to the image resolution. For example, if ``dp=1`` , the accumulator has the same resolution as the input image. If ``dp=2`` , the accumulator has half as big width and height.
:param minDist: Minimum distance between the centers of the detected circles. If the parameter is too small, multiple neighbor circles may be falsely detected in addition to a true one. If it is too large, some circles may be missed.
:param param1: First method-specific parameter. In case of ``CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT`` , it is the higher threshold of the two passed to the :ocv:func:`Canny` edge detector (the lower one is twice smaller).
:param param2: Second method-specific parameter. In case of ``CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT`` , it is the accumulator threshold for the circle centers at the detection stage. The smaller it is, the more false circles may be detected. Circles, corresponding to the larger accumulator values, will be returned first.
:param minRadius: Minimum circle radius.
:param maxRadius: Maximum circle radius.
The function finds circles in a grayscale image using a modification of the Hough transform.
Example: ::
#include <cv.h>
#include <highgui.h>
#include <math.h>
using namespace cv;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
Mat img, gray;
if( argc != 2 && !(img=imread(argv[1], 1)).data)
return -1;
cvtColor(img, gray, CV_BGR2GRAY);
// smooth it, otherwise a lot of false circles may be detected
GaussianBlur( gray, gray, Size(9, 9), 2, 2 );
vector<Vec3f> circles;
HoughCircles(gray, circles, CV_HOUGH_GRADIENT,
2, gray->rows/4, 200, 100 );
for( size_t i = 0; i < circles.size(); i++ )
{
Point center(cvRound(circles[i][0]), cvRound(circles[i][1]));
int radius = cvRound(circles[i][2]);
// draw the circle center
circle( img, center, 3, Scalar(0,255,0), -1, 8, 0 );
// draw the circle outline
circle( img, center, radius, Scalar(0,0,255), 3, 8, 0 );
}
namedWindow( "circles", 1 );
imshow( "circles", img );
return 0;
}
.. note:: Usually the function detects the centers of circles well. However, it may fail to find correct radii. You can assist to the function by specifying the radius range ( ``minRadius`` and ``maxRadius`` ) if you know it. Or, you may ignore the returned radius, use only the center, and find the correct radius using an additional procedure.

HoughLines
----------
Finds lines in a binary image using the standard Hough transform.
.. ocv:function:: void HoughLines( InputArray image, OutputArray lines, double rho, double theta, int threshold, double srn=0, double stn=0 )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.HoughLines(image, rho, theta, threshold[, lines[, srn[, stn]]]) -> lines
.. ocv:cfunction:: CvSeq* cvHoughLines2( CvArr* image, void* storage, int method, double rho, double theta, int threshold, double param1=0, double param2=0 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.HoughLines2(image, storage, method, rho, theta, threshold, param1=0, param2=0)-> lines
:param image: 8-bit, single-channel binary source image. The image may be modified by the function.
:param lines: Output vector of lines. Each line is represented by a two-element vector :math:`(\rho, \theta)` . :math:`\rho` is the distance from the coordinate origin :math:`(0,0)` (top-left corner of the image). :math:`\theta` is the line rotation angle in radians ( :math:`0 \sim \textrm{vertical line}, \pi/2 \sim \textrm{horizontal line}` ).
:param rho: Distance resolution of the accumulator in pixels.
:param theta: Angle resolution of the accumulator in radians.
:param threshold: Accumulator threshold parameter. Only those lines are returned that get enough votes ( :math:`>\texttt{threshold}` ).
:param srn: For the multi-scale Hough transform, it is a divisor for the distance resolution ``rho`` . The coarse accumulator distance resolution is ``rho`` and the accurate accumulator resolution is ``rho/srn`` . If both ``srn=0`` and ``stn=0`` , the classical Hough transform is used. Otherwise, both these parameters should be positive.
:param stn: For the multi-scale Hough transform, it is a divisor for the distance resolution ``theta``.
:param method: One of the following Hough transform variants:
* **CV_HOUGH_STANDARD** classical or standard Hough transform. Every line is represented by two floating-point numbers :math:`(\rho, \theta)` , where :math:`\rho` is a distance between (0,0) point and the line, and :math:`\theta` is the angle between x-axis and the normal to the line. Thus, the matrix must be (the created sequence will be) of ``CV_32FC2`` type
* **CV_HOUGH_PROBABILISTIC** probabilistic Hough transform (more efficient in case if the picture contains a few long linear segments). It returns line segments rather than the whole line. Each segment is represented by starting and ending points, and the matrix must be (the created sequence will be) of the ``CV_32SC4`` type.
* **CV_HOUGH_MULTI_SCALE** multi-scale variant of the classical Hough transform. The lines are encoded the same way as ``CV_HOUGH_STANDARD``.
:param param1: First method-dependent parameter:
* For the classical Hough transform, it is not used (0).
* For the probabilistic Hough transform, it is the minimum line length.
* For the multi-scale Hough transform, it is ``srn``.
:param param2: Second method-dependent parameter:
* For the classical Hough transform, it is not used (0).
* For the probabilistic Hough transform, it is the maximum gap between line segments lying on the same line to treat them as a single line segment (that is, to join them).
* For the multi-scale Hough transform, it is ``stn``.
The function implements the standard or standard multi-scale Hough transform algorithm for line detection. See http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/HIPR2/hough.htm for a good explanation of Hough transform.
See also the example in :ocv:func:`HoughLinesP` description.
HoughLinesP
-----------
Finds line segments in a binary image using the probabilistic Hough transform.
.. ocv:function:: void HoughLinesP( InputArray image, OutputArray lines, double rho, double theta, int threshold, double minLineLength=0, double maxLineGap=0 )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.HoughLinesP(image, rho, theta, threshold[, lines[, minLineLength[, maxLineGap]]]) -> lines
:param image: 8-bit, single-channel binary source image. The image may be modified by the function.
:param lines: Output vector of lines. Each line is represented by a 4-element vector :math:`(x_1, y_1, x_2, y_2)` , where :math:`(x_1,y_1)` and :math:`(x_2, y_2)` are the ending points of each detected line segment.
:param rho: Distance resolution of the accumulator in pixels.
:param theta: Angle resolution of the accumulator in radians.
:param threshold: Accumulator threshold parameter. Only those lines are returned that get enough votes ( :math:`>\texttt{threshold}` ).
:param minLineLength: Minimum line length. Line segments shorter than that are rejected.
:param maxLineGap: Maximum allowed gap between points on the same line to link them.
The function implements the probabilistic Hough transform algorithm for line detection, described in
[Matas00]_. See the line detection example below: ::
/* This is a standalone program. Pass an image name as the first parameter

return -1;
Canny( src, dst, 50, 200, 3 );

{
line( color_dst, Point(lines[i][0], lines[i][1]),
Point(lines[i][2], lines[i][3]), Scalar(0,0,255), 3, 8 );
}

And this is the output of the above program in case of the probabilistic Hough transform:
.. image:: pics/houghp.png
preCornerDetect
---------------
Calculates a feature map for corner detection.
.. ocv:function:: void preCornerDetect( InputArray src, OutputArray dst, int apertureSize, int borderType=BORDER_DEFAULT )
.. ocv:pyfunction:: cv2.preCornerDetect(src, ksize[, dst[, borderType]]) -> dst
.. ocv:cfunction:: void cvPreCornerDetect( const CvArr* image, CvArr* corners, int apertureSize=3 )
.. ocv:pyoldfunction:: cv.PreCornerDetect(image, corners, apertureSize=3)-> None
:param src: Source single-channel 8-bit of floating-point image.
:param dst: Output image that has the type ``CV_32F`` and the same size as ``src`` .
:param apertureSize: Aperture size of the :ocv:func:`Sobel` .
:param borderType: Pixel extrapolation method. See :ocv:func:`borderInterpolate` .
The function calculates the complex spatial derivative-based function of the source image
.. math::
\texttt{dst} = (D_x \texttt{src} )^2 \cdot D_{yy} \texttt{src} + (D_y \texttt{src} )^2 \cdot D_{xx} \texttt{src} - 2 D_x \texttt{src} \cdot D_y \texttt{src} \cdot D_{xy} \texttt{src}
where
:math:`D_x`,:math:`D_y` are the first image derivatives,
:math:`D_{xx}`,:math:`D_{yy}` are the second image derivatives, and
:math:`D_{xy}` is the mixed derivative.
The corners can be found as local maximums of the functions, as shown below: ::
Mat corners, dilated_corners;
preCornerDetect(image, corners, 3);
// dilation with 3x3 rectangular structuring element
dilate(corners, dilated_corners, Mat(), 1);
Mat corner_mask = corners == dilated_corners;
