寻找Harris、Shi-Tomasi和亚像素角点

Harris、Shi-Tomasi和亚像素角点都是角点，隶属于特征点这个大类（特征点可以分为边缘、角点、斑点).

一、Harris角点检测是一种直接基于灰度图像的角点提取算法，稳定性较高，但是也可能出现有用信息丢失的情况。

函数：cornerHarris()

void cv::cornerHarris	(	InputArray	src,  //需要为8位单通道
		OutputArray	dst,  //结果
		int	blockSize, //领域大小
		int	ksize, //Sobel孔径大小
		double	k, //Harris参数
		int	borderType = BORDER_DEFAULT
	)

Harris corner detector.

The function runs the Harris corner detector on the image. Similarly to cornerMinEigenVal and cornerEigenValsAndVecs , for each pixel (x, y) it calculates a 2\times2 gradient covariance matrix M^{(x,y)} over a \texttt{blockSize} \times \texttt{blockSize} neighborhood. Then, it computes the following characteristic:

（特征点计算方法）

 

Corners in the image can be found as the local maxima of this response map.

Parameters

src	Input single-channel 8-bit or floating-point image.
dst	Image to store the Harris detector responses. It has the type CV_32FC1 and the same size as src .
blockSize	Neighborhood size (see the details on cornerEigenValsAndVecs ).
ksize	Aperture parameter for the Sobel operator.
k	Harris detector free parameter. See the formula below.
borderType	Pixel extrapolation method. See cv::BorderTypes.

调用：

 

    Mat srcGray ,,.);
    .,,THRESH_BINARY);
    imshow();

二、Shi-Tomasi角点

一般认为是Harris的改进，因为当时提出的论文叫做《Good Features to Track》,所以这种角点再OpenCV中叫做goodFeatures

函数:goodFeaturesToTrack()

void cv::goodFeaturesToTrack	(	InputArray	image,//输入图像
		OutputArray	corners,//输出向量
		int	maxCorners,//角点最大数量
		double	qualityLevel,//角点检测可接受的最小特征值
		double	minDistance,//角点之间的最小距离
		InputArray	mask = noArray(),//感兴趣区域
		int	blockSize = 3,//领域范围
		bool	useHarrisDetector = false,//true为harris;false为Shi-Tomasi
		double	k = 0.04 //权重系数
	)

Determines strong corners on an image.

The function finds the most prominent corners in the image or in the specified image region, as described in [154]

• Function calculates the corner quality measure at every source image pixel using the cornerMinEigenVal or cornerHarris .
• Function performs a non-maximum suppression (the local maximums in 3 x 3 neighborhood are retained).
• The corners with the minimal eigenvalue less than qualityLevel⋅maxx,yqualityMeasureMap(x,y) are rejected.
• The remaining corners are sorted by the quality measure in the descending order.
• Function throws away each corner for which there is a stronger corner at a distance less than maxDistance.

The function can be used to initialize a point-based tracker of an object.

Note

If the function is called with different values A and B of the parameter qualityLevel , and A > B, the vector of returned corners with qualityLevel=A will be the prefix of the output vector with qualityLevel=B .

Parameters

image	Input 8-bit or floating-point 32-bit, single-channel image.
corners	Output vector of detected corners.
maxCorners	Maximum number of corners to return. If there are more corners than are found, the strongest of them is returned. maxCorners <= 0 implies that no limit on the maximum is set and all detected corners are returned.
qualityLevel	Parameter characterizing the minimal accepted quality of image corners. The parameter value is multiplied by the best corner quality measure, which is the minimal eigenvalue (see cornerMinEigenVal ) or the Harris function response (see cornerHarris ). The corners with the quality measure less than the product are rejected. For example, if the best corner has the quality measure = 1500, and the qualityLevel=0.01 , then all the corners with the quality measure less than 15 are rejected.
minDistance	Minimum possible Euclidean distance between the returned corners.
mask	Optional region of interest. If the image is not empty (it needs to have the type CV_8UC1 and the same size as image ), it specifies the region in which the corners are detected.
blockSize	Size of an average block for computing a derivative covariation matrix over each pixel neighborhood. See cornerEigenValsAndVecs .
useHarrisDetector	Parameter indicating whether to use a Harris detector (see cornerHarris) or cornerMinEigenVal.
k	Free parameter of the Harris detector.

调用：

Mat srcGray = imread("e:/template/lena.jpg",IMREAD_GRAYSCALE);    

,.,,Mat(),,.);
    ;i,Scalar());
    }
     
    imshow();

结果：

可以看到，眼部、帽子上面的尖端这些的却是"GoodFeatures"的地方都被标注了出来

三、如果需要亚像素的角点，我们必须更进一步。

函数:cornerSubPix()

void cv::cornerSubPix	(	InputArray	image,
		InputOutputArray	corners,
		Size	winSize,
		Size	zeroZone,
		TermCriteria	criteria
	)

调用:需要注意现计算goodfeatures再算亚像素

Mat srcGray .,                              ,                                 ,                                 .                               , ),      ,),                   ,                              .                             ;i,Scalar());
        cout);

结果:

可以看到其计算处理小数点后面的值。

四、小结

角点虽然现在用的比较少了，但是作为基本的知识有必要了解；下一步的更为复杂的特征点模型都是基于角点的，它们之间有着一脉相承的关系。
