Hi @LBerger. Thank you for your reply. I will try to play with your code and study Lowe's paper one more time. Basically, what I need is a function that will calculate the octave. The input from my side is: x, y, scale.

Hi,

I want to extract sift features for custom defined keypoints. There is a class cv::KeyPoint that can be used to create custom points. However, I am not sure how to decode the proper information in 'size' and 'octave' parameters. I want to extract descriptors for various scales, e.g.: 3, 5, 7. What values should I use for 'size' and 'octave'? Any ideas?

@berak: in some applications, it may be required to base on custom key points, e.g. face recognition

Hi,

Any update on this issue? I am trying to calculate the SIFT descriptor for various scales: 3, 5, 7 at the given points. However, there is no 'scale' parameter in cv::KeyPoint class directly. I tried to play with 'octave', 'size' parameters but I am not sure how to set them correctly? Any ideas?
