The class BruteForceMatcher_OCL_base has an interface similar to the class DescriptorMatcher. It has two groups of match methods: for matching descriptors of one image with another image or with an image set. Also, all functions have an alternative to save results either to the GPU memory or to the CPU memory. BruteForceMatcher_OCL_base supports only the L1<float>, L2<float>, and Hamming distance types.
