Algorithm used in Descriptor Matcher trainer in OpenCV

The code snippet below shows the basics of training a descriptor matcher used in object recognition.

detector = cv.FeatureDetector('ORB');
extractor = cv.DescriptorExtractor('ORB');
matcher = cv.DescriptorMatcher('BruteForce-Hamming')

for(i=1 to N)
{
   detector(i) = detector.detect(image(i));
   descriptor(i) = extractor.compute(image(i),detector(i));
   matcher.add(descriptor(i));

}
matcher.train();

The code is not syntactically correct, however I want to know how the train() function of matcher works here.

The implementation of train method for Brute Force Matcher is empty. It only makes sense for other matcher where you can train in advance without query descriptors.

So what is happening to other matchers.
