Function Documentation

FASTForPointSet()

void cv::xfeatures2d::FASTForPointSet	(	InputArray	image,
		std::vector< KeyPoint > &	keypoints,
		int	threshold,
		bool	nonmaxSuppression = true,
		int	type = FastFeatureDetector::TYPE_9_16
	)

Estimates cornerness for prespecified KeyPoints using the FAST algorithm.

Parameters

image	grayscale image where keypoints (corners) are detected.
keypoints	keypoints which should be tested to fit the FAST criteria. Keypoints not beeing detected as corners are removed.
threshold	threshold on difference between intensity of the central pixel and pixels of a circle around this pixel.
nonmaxSuppression	if true, non-maximum suppression is applied to detected corners (keypoints).
type	one of the three neighborhoods as defined in the paper: FastFeatureDetector::TYPE_9_16, FastFeatureDetector::TYPE_7_12, FastFeatureDetector::TYPE_5_8

Detects corners using the FAST algorithm by [154] .
