Class cv::xfeatures2d::PCTSignatures#

Class implementing PCT (position-color-texture) signature extraction as described in [171]. The algorithm is divided to a feature sampler and a clusterizer. Feature sampler produces samples at given set of coordinates. Clusterizer then produces clusters of these samples using k-means algorithm. Resulting set of clusters is the signature of the input image. View details

Detailed Description#

Class implementing PCT (position-color-texture) signature extraction as described in KrulisLS16. The algorithm is divided to a feature sampler and a clusterizer. Feature sampler produces samples at given set of coordinates. Clusterizer then produces clusters of these samples using k-means algorithm. Resulting set of clusters is the signature of the input image.

A signature is an array of SIGNATURE_DIMENSION-dimensional points. Used dimensions are: weight, x, y position; lab color, contrast, entropy. KrulisLS16 BeecksUS10
