Hi, I'm using SIFT algorithm for comparing the features between two images. I'm curious to know about the second argument of sift.detectAndCompute() method. I'm using none in my script. I know the method's syntax cv2.SIFT.detectAndCompute(image, mask[, descriptors[, useProvidedKeypoints]]) → keypoints, descriptors¶ But I couldnot understand how can I use this "mask"?

A brief Explanation with an example is very helpful for me

Thank Berak!!!

Yes. It is unrelated to SIFT .Here I'm comparing the video frames with a reference frame, for comparing i'm using SIFT algorithm.When match-count is high, as output I need to provide the PTS value which will be in the PES Packetized Elementary Stream header. It not refers to the date/time picture when acquired.

Presentation timestamp.

I'm using SIFT feature of Opencv in an application. I need to read the PTS value of the frame which i'm using. Is there any API to read PTS value in Opencv.

As a input I'm giving the video and I need to read the Presentation timestamp (PTS) of the frames in the video.

2015-10-23 05:40:53 -0600 asked a question In drawKeypoints function, on what basis keypoints are drawn ?

I'm searching for a image in the video which the image already exists but trans-coded to another codec and resolution is also changed. I thought opencv can help to get the solution. I have come through drawKeypoints function in opencv, this function on what basis it draws the keypoints ? If it is on the basis of coordinates, will different resolution of image and video results same keypoints ?
