Content collection search with robust content matching

摘要

False positive match rates between query content and content in a collection may be reduced with a minimum content region test and/or a minimum features per scale test. The quality of correlations between query descriptors and content descriptors may be improved with a modified sub-region descriptor construction. Content regions associated with detected content features may be partitioned into disjoint sets of sub-regions that cover the content regions, the sub-regions modified so as to at least partially overlap, and descriptor components generated for the modified sub-regions. Matching of feature-sparse content may be improved by adding blurred versions to the collection.
