I've implement a Robust matcher found on the internet based on differents tests : symmetry test, Ratio Test and RANSAC test. It works well.
I used then findHomography in order to have good matches.
Here the code :
RobustMatcher::RobustMatcher() : ratio(0.65f), refineF(true),confidence(0.99), distance(3.0) {
detector = new cv::SurfFeatureDetector(400); //Better than ORB
//detector = new cv::SiftFeatureDetector; //Better than ORB
//extractor= new cv::OrbDescriptorExtractor();
//extractor= new cv::SiftDescriptorExtractor;
extractor= new cv::SurfDescriptorExtractor;
// matcher= new cv::FlannBasedMatcher;
matcher= new cv::BFMatcher();
}
// Clear matches for which NN ratio is > than threshold
// return the number of removed points
// (corresponding entries being cleared,
// i.e. size will be 0)
int RobustMatcher::ratioTest(std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >
&matches) {
int removed=0;
// for all matches
for (std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >::iterator
matchIterator= matches.begin();
matchIterator!= matches.end(); ++matchIterator) {
// if 2 NN has been identified
if (matchIterator->size() > 1) {
// check distance ratio
if ((*matchIterator)[0].distance/
(*matchIterator)[1].distance > ratio) {
matchIterator->clear(); // remove match
removed++;
}
} else { // does not have 2 neighbours
matchIterator->clear(); // remove match
removed++;
}
}
return removed;
}
// Insert symmetrical matches in symMatches vector
void RobustMatcher::symmetryTest(
const std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >& matches1,
const std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >& matches2,
std::vector<cv::DMatch>& symMatches) {
// for all matches image 1 -> image 2
for (std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >::
const_iterator matchIterator1= matches1.begin();
matchIterator1!= matches1.end(); ++matchIterator1) {
// ignore deleted matches
if (matchIterator1->size() < 2)
continue;
// for all matches image 2 -> image 1
for (std::vector<std::vector<cv::DMatch> >::
const_iterator matchIterator2= matches2.begin();
matchIterator2!= matches2.end();
++matchIterator2) {
// ignore deleted matches
if (matchIterator2->size() < 2)
continue;
// Match symmetry test
if ((*matchIterator1)[0].queryIdx ==
(*matchIterator2)[0].trainIdx &&
(*matchIterator2)[0].queryIdx ==
(*matchIterator1)[0].trainIdx) {
// add symmetrical match
symMatches.push_back(
cv::DMatch((*matchIterator1)[0].queryIdx,
(*matchIterator1)[0].trainIdx,
(*matchIterator1)[0].distance));
break; // next match in image 1 -> image 2
}
}
}
}
// Identify good matches using RANSAC
// Return fundemental matrix
cv::Mat RobustMatcher::ransacTest(const std::vector<cv::DMatch>& matches,const std::vector<cv::KeyPoint>& keypoints1,

// Convert keypoints into Point2f

// Get the position of left keypoints

I have results like this (Homography is good):
But I don't understand why for some of my results where the match is good I have these kind of results (homography not seems to be good):
Can someone explain me? Maybe I have to adjust the parameters? But if I reduce constraints (rise the ratio for example) instead of have no matching between two pictures (this is good), I have a lot of matching... And I don't want to. Besides the homography doesn't work at all (I have a green line only like above).
And inversely, my robust matcher works (too) well that is to say that for differents sames picture (just rotated, differents scale etc) , that's work fine but when I have two similar image, I have no match at all...
So I don't how can I do a good computation. I'm a beginner. The robust matcher works well but for the exactly same image but for two similar images like above, it doesn't work and this is a problem.
Maybe I'm on the wrong way.
Before post this message, I of course read a lot on Stack but I didn't find the answer. (For example Here)
It is due to how SURF descriptors work, see http://docs.opencv.org/trunk/doc/py_tutorials/py_feature2d/py_surf_intro/py_surf_intro.html
Basically with Droid the image is mostly flat color and it's difficult to find keypoints that are not ambiguous. With Nike, the shape is the same, but the intensity ratio is completely different in the descriptors: imagine on the left the center of a descriptor will be intensity 0 and on the right 1. Even if you normalize the intensity of the images, you're not going to have a match.
If your goal is just to match logos, I suggest you look into edge detection algorithms, like: http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/imgproc/imgtrans/canny_detector/canny_detector.html
