template matching angle and scale invariant

Hello,

I have another question concerning the image matching. It seems so to be that opencv does not support angle and scale invariant template matching?

Cheers, Gordon

that's right. template matching is neither scale nor rotation invariant.

(that's why there's all those SURF/SIFT/ORB things)

what do you actually want to do ?

Hi,

I have old scripts (middle age) and I would like to find similar objects in the manuscripts. (This is a challenge due to the fact that also "identical" objects have small differences....

Take a look at Rotation, Scale, Translation-Invariant Template Matching

"We conducted several experiments to compare grayscale and color Ciratefis with SIFT, C-color-SIFT and EasyMatch algorithms in many different situations. The results attest that grayscale and color Ciratefis are more accurate than the compared algorithms and that color-Ciratefi outperforms grayscale Ciratefi most of the time. However, Ciratefi is slower than the other algorithms" (taken from Ciratefi: An RST-Invariant Template Matching with Extension to Color Images)

[rotation (R), scale (S) and translation (T)]

edit: i think that source code can be downloaded from here (i didn't try it)
