Description

points_harrispoints_harrisPointsHarrisPointsHarrisPointsHarrispoints_harris extracts points of interest from an image ImageImageImageImageimageimage. The Harris operator is based upon the smoothed matrix where stands for a Binomial smoothing of size MaskSizeSmoothMaskSizeSmoothMaskSizeSmoothMaskSizeSmoothmaskSizeSmoothmask_size_smooth and and are the first derivatives of the image, computed with a Sobel filter of size MaskSizeGradMaskSizeGradMaskSizeGradMaskSizeGradmaskSizeGradmask_size_grad. The resulting points are the positive local extrema of If necessary, they can be restricted to points with a minimum filter response of ThresholdThresholdThresholdThresholdthresholdthreshold. By default the coordinates of the points are calculated with subpixel accuracy. This can be turned off by setting the parameter SubpixSubpixSubpixSubpixsubpixsubpix to 'off'.

Attention

Note that filter operators may return unexpected results if an image with a reduced domain is used as input. Please refer to the chapter Filters.

Result

points_harrispoints_harrisPointsHarrisPointsHarrisPointsHarrispoints_harris returns TRUE if all parameters are correct and no error occurs during the execution. If the input is empty the behavior can be set via set_system('no_object_result',<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>). If necessary, an exception is raised.
