Comparison of the OpenCV’s feature detection algorithms « Computer Vision Talks

“In computer vision and image processing the concept of feature detection refers to methods that aim at computing abstractions of image information and making local decisions at every image point whether there is an image feature of a given type at that point or not. The resulting features will be subsets of the image domain, often in the form of isolated points, continuous curves or connected regions.” OpenCV is free open-source library intended for use in image processing, computer vision and machine learning areas. http://computer-vision-talks.com/2011/01/comparison-of-the-opencvs-feature-detection-algorithms-2/
