I use opencv 3.4.2. When I apply computeDistance(contour1, contour2) of createHausdorffDistanceExtractor, I obtain zero values for more than one position out of overlaped shape contours. To show this, consider following benchmark: The square contour (patch or model) which moves vertically over the image with the square contour (the same size and orientation as the patch). It should yield zero Hausdorff distance only once, why is not so ? Let me note that this is only in vertical direction. In the horizontal direction it works perfectly.

White is original contour and gray is moved patch.
Output:
Hausdorff distance - horizontal direction: 45.000000
Hausdorff distance - vertical direction: 0.000000
it should be instead the same for both i.e. 45. Has somone made the same observation ?
