create

public static SIFT create(int nfeatures,
                          int nOctaveLayers,
                          double contrastThreshold,
                          double edgeThreshold,
                          double sigma)

Parameters:

nfeatures - The number of best features to retain. The features are ranked by their scores (measured in SIFT algorithm as the local contrast)

nOctaveLayers - The number of layers in each octave. 3 is the value used in D. Lowe paper. The number of octaves is computed automatically from the image resolution.

contrastThreshold - The contrast threshold used to filter out weak features in semi-uniform (low-contrast) regions. The larger the threshold, the less features are produced by the detector.

edgeThreshold - The threshold used to filter out edge-like features. Note that the its meaning is different from the contrastThreshold, i.e. the larger the edgeThreshold, the less features are filtered out (more features are retained).

sigma - The sigma of the Gaussian applied to the input image at the octave \#0. If your image is captured with a weak camera with soft lenses, you might want to reduce the number.

Returns:

automatically generated

create

                          int nOctaveLayers,
                          double contrastThreshold,
                          double edgeThreshold)

Parameters:

nfeatures - The number of best features to retain. The features are ranked by their scores (measured in SIFT algorithm as the local contrast)

nOctaveLayers - The number of layers in each octave. 3 is the value used in D. Lowe paper. The number of octaves is computed automatically from the image resolution.

Note that the its meaning is different from the contrastThreshold, i.e. the larger the edgeThreshold, the less features are filtered out (more features are retained). is captured with a weak camera with soft lenses, you might want to reduce the number.
