Revision history [back]

The reasons why you may not get any keypoints:

• keypoints around the border will be removed
• keypoints which don't have a strong response will be removed

So, I guess your iamge is too small and doesn't get good keypoints. Thus, other detector/descriptor combinations, e.g. using a dense grid in conjunction with SIFT. Alternatively upscale the image (maybe with a superresolution approach).
