特征匹配

匹配算法概述 #

特征匹配是计算机视觉中的关键步骤，用于在两幅图像之间建立特征点的对应关系。常用的匹配算法包括暴力匹配、KNN 匹配和 FLANN 匹配。

匹配算法类型 #

暴力匹配（Brute-Force） #

暴力匹配通过计算所有可能的特征点对之间的距离来找到最佳匹配。

距离计算公式：

其中${\mathbf{f}}_{\mathbf{1}},{\mathbf{f}}_{\mathbf{2}}$是两个特征描述符向量。

    style F fill:#E91E63,stroke:#FFFFFF,stroke-width:3px,color:#FFFFFF

特点 #

• 优点：实现简单，结果准确
• 缺点：计算复杂度高，O(n²)
• 适用场景：特征点数量较少的情况

KNN 匹配 #

K 最近邻匹配为每个特征点找到 k 个最近邻，通过比值测试筛选良好匹配。

Lowe’s 比值测试：

其中：

• $d_1$是最近邻距离
• $d_2$是次近邻距离
• $\text{threshold}$通常取 0.75

特点 #

• 优点：能够筛选出高质量的匹配
• 缺点：需要调整阈值参数
• 适用场景：需要高质量匹配的应用

FLANN 匹配 #

Fast Library for Approximate Nearest Neighbors，适用于大规模数据的快速匹配。

特点 #

• 优点：速度快，适合大规模数据
• 缺点：近似匹配，精度略低
• 适用场景：特征点数量很多的情况
