SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EFFECTIVELY PERFORMING AN IMAGE CATEGORIZATION PROCEDURE

摘要

A system for performing an image categorization procedure includes an image manager with a keypoint generator, a support region filter, an orientation filter, and a matching module. The keypoint generator computes initial descriptors for keypoints in a test image. The support region filter and the orientation filter perform respective filtering procedures upon the initial descriptors to produce filtered descriptors. The matching module compares the filtered descriptors to one or more database image sets for categorizing said test image. A processor of an electronic device typically controls the image manager to effectively perform the image categorization procedure.
