Rapid image feature extracting method based on FAST and SIFT
Technical field
The invention belongs to computer vision fields, more particularly to the rapidly extracting of image characteristic point, image registration, image The fields such as identification.
Background technique
SIFT (Scale invariant features transform) algorithm is the generally acknowledged strongest feature extracting method of characteristic point comprehensive performance, Have the invariance such as scaling, translation, scale, stability is strong with noise immunity, is usually used in handling between two images in the presence of translation, rotation Turn, the registration under the conditions of affine transformation etc..But this method has shortcoming again, that is, due to the structure of Gauss scale pyramid It builds and the processes operands such as the descriptor computation of characteristic point is big, leading to the algorithm, time-consuming.Existing improvement is mostly for such as What improves SIFT feature extraction rate, while realizing the promotion of comprehensive performance as far as possible.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of reliable methods that quick SIFT feature may be implemented and extract.Due to SIFT point Detection is to be detected based on difference of Gaussian spatial extrema, and the building operand of difference of Gaussian image pyramid is very big, consumes very much When, leading to total algorithm, time-consuming.In order to improve algorithm speed, the present invention around be opened in difference of Gaussian space carry out extremum extracting this One step carries out characteristic point detection to picture subject to registration using FAST angular-point detection method first, quickly obtains the position of characteristic point Information.The sub- generation strategy of description for combining SIFT later, generates 128 dimensional feature description vectors around extreme point.By FAST point Detection method is combined with SIFT method, realizes quick, real-time image characteristic point detection and description.
It realizes the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: the rapid image feature extracting method based on FAST and SIFT, including following Step:
Step 1: angle point is extracted according to FAST angle point grid step.
Step 2: selecting a certain size neighborhood window, calculates characteristic point surrounding neighbors histogram of gradients, and is characterized a little minute With principal direction θ.
Step 3: it is calculated according to 16*16 neighborhood territory pixel around key point and generates SIFT feature descriptor.
In step 1, feature point extraction is carried out to image subject to registration using FAST, obtains specifically doing for characteristic point position Method are as follows:
Centered on pixel p, radius is to have 16 on the bresenham circle of the discretization of three pixels for definition first Pixel (p1, p2 ..., p16).
A suitable threshold value is defined later, calculates p1, p5, p9, the pixel absolute value of the difference of p13 and center p, if absolutely Having at least three in value is more than threshold value, then is not otherwise angle point as candidate angular.
If p is candidate angular, calculate this 16 points of p1 to p16 to center p pixel absolute value of the difference, if in absolute value Having at least continuous n is more than threshold value, then is angle point, is not angle point otherwise, n can be 9 or 12.
Non-maxima suppression finally is carried out to all characteristic points, that is, is directed to some characteristic point, is calculated including itself 3 × 3 or 5 × 5 neighborhoods in characteristic point quantity, if quantity be 1, i.e., in neighborhood only have this characteristic point, then retain This characteristic point calculates the FAST score value of each characteristic point, that is, it is right with it to calculate each characteristic point if quantity is greater than 1 The sum of upper 16 pixels pixel value absolute value of the difference of bresenham circle answered, retains the maximum characteristic point of FAST score, remaining Feature point deletion.
In step 2, a certain size neighborhood window is selected, calculates characteristic point surrounding neighbors histogram of gradients, and is spy The specific practice of sign point distribution principal direction θ are as follows:
Coordinate is the point of (x, y), and mould and direction are expressed as follows:
M (x, y)={ [L (x+1, y)-L (x-1, y)]2+[L(x,y+1)-L(x,y-1)]2}1/2
Wherein L (x, y) represents image subject to registration.
It is sampled in the neighborhood window centered on characteristic point later, with the ladder of gradient orientation histogram statistics neighborhood territory pixel Direction is spent, the histogram of gradients within the scope of 0 °~360 ° is averagely divided into 36 columns, every 10 degree of columns.The peak of histogram of gradients Value corresponding angle represents the principal direction of characteristic point, and when the ratio between minor peaks and main peak value are more than 80%, this direction is considered The auxiliary direction of this feature point.One characteristic point may be designated with multiple directions, to enhance robustness.
In step 3, is calculated according to 16*16 neighborhood around key point and generates SIFT feature descriptor, specific practice are as follows:
First centered on characteristic point, reference axis is rotated to be to the principal direction of characteristic point, i.e., in characteristic point neighbors around By reference axis rotate θ angle (θ is characterized principal direction), after rotation in neighborhood pixel new coordinate are as follows:
Later centered on characteristic point, the pixel of 16 × 16 neighborhoods around it is evenly dividing as 4 × 4 fritters, every The histogram of gradients that eight directions are drawn on a fritter, forms seed point.Therefore the descriptor of each characteristic point is by 16 seeds Point is formed, and each seed point has the information in 8 directions, to obtain the feature point description symbol of 4 × 4 × 8=128 dimension.
