I want to multiply two points and matrix.I have trainPoints which is trained before the program.And I have testPoints which is occured while program is processing.And also I have homography which is Mat object (calculated with findHomography method).I want to check is it true?I want to calculate homography error.How can i multiply two points and homography?

Your question is not clear enough. You should reformulate it. Can you write it in using mathematical conventions?

I have two points.Train points are (x,y) and test points are (x',y').I want to muliply xhomography and yhomography.For a result ,I want to get x' and y'.

There are multiple functions to do it. If you have a list of points, perspectiveTransform()) is what you're looking for.

std::vector<cv::Point> inPts, outPts;
inpPts.push_back(cv::Point(3, 5));
perspectiveTransform(inPts, outPts, homography);

// now, you have the x', y' stored in outPts[0];

You may also want to convert an entire picture from one space to another - if you want to match pairs of points in two pictures, this is a common task.

So, given the currentPicture, and pictureReference, both declared as cv::Mat, you can

warpPerspective(currentPicture, pictureReference, homography);

Here you can find docs for warpPerspective)

I use "perspectiveTransform(inPts, outPts, homography);" and it works well.Thank you.

Hi,

I am not sure if I understood your question but it seems that you are asking how two multiply several points by an homography (3x3 matrix) at the same time, right? For this, you only need to concatenate the points as column vectors in a Mat and then you can do something like that:

cv::Mat_<double> imp;
imp   = H*im_point;

for (int i = 0; i < im_point.cols; i++) {
    // normalize the point
    imp(0,i) = imp(0,i)/imp(2,i);
    imp(1,i) = imp(1,i)/imp(2,i);
}

cv::Mat res;
res = imp(cv::Range(0,2), cv::Range::all());
return res;

Notice that the points im_point must be in homogeneous coordinates. I hope that this helps, if not, please be more specific in your question...
