It further extracts highly distinct information for each +such point and allows to characterize the point invariant to a number of +modifications to the image. It is invariant to contrast/brightness changes, to +rotation, scaling and partially invariant to other kinds of transformations. +The algorithm can be flexibly used to create input data for image matching, +object identification and other computer vision related algorithms. + +This package provides an implementation of the SIFT algorithm and a set of +utilities to utilize the algorithm to match two or more images. As output, a +number of control points are created, which specify one and the same image +location in two images. |
