Class MSER


  • public class MSER
    extends Feature2D
    Maximally stable extremal region extractor The class encapsulates all the parameters of the %MSER extraction algorithm (see [wiki article](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximally_stable_extremal_regions)).
    • there are two different implementation of %MSER: one for grey image, one for color image
    • the grey image algorithm is taken from: CITE: nister2008linear ; the paper claims to be faster than union-find method; it actually get 1.5~2m/s on my centrino L7200 1.2GHz laptop.
    • the color image algorithm is taken from: CITE: forssen2007maximally ; it should be much slower than grey image method ( 3~4 times )
    • (Python) A complete example showing the use of the %MSER detector can be found at samples/python/mser.py
