Thanks for the suggestions. It occurs matchShapes with "normal" moments (and with template contours) does the trick.

@berak It works. :) Thanks!

Thanks for approxPolyDP suggestion. :) I used matchShapes using some template images.

Ahh... So the solution would be to use stable? 2.4.5? Have you filed a bug report already?

I'm using matchShapes to recognize some basic contours. However, it's returning 0, no matter what contours I compare...

Template images:

Examplary input image:

The code:

using std::vector;
vector<vector<Point> > contours;
vector<Vec4i> hierarchy;

findContours(binary, contours, hierarchy,
             CV_RETR_CCOMP, CV_CHAIN_APPROX_TC89_KCOS);

drawContours(binary, contours, -1, Scalar(255, 255, 255));

if (!contours.size()) // avoid sigsegv
    return;

for (int idx = 0; idx >= 0; idx = hierarchy[idx][0]) {
    double bestMatch = INFINITY;
    int bestI = -1;
    for (int i = 0; i < knownContours.size(); i++) {
        vector<Point>& a = knownContours[i].contour;
        vector<Point>& b = contours[idx];
        std::cout << "a.size = " << a.size() << ", b.size = " << b.size() << std::endl;
        double match = matchShapes(b, a, CV_CONTOURS_MATCH_I1, 0);
        std::cout << "idx=" << idx << " ? " << knownContours[i].name << " = " << match << std::endl;
        if (bestI == -1 || match < bestMatch) {
            bestI = i;
            bestMatch = match;
        }
    }
}

(knownContours are obviously initialized with template image data: imread(), then findContours(), finally this->contour = contours[0]).

And resulting output (a fragment):

-- new frame
a.size = 57, b.size = 74
idx=0 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 74
idx=0 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 74
idx=0 ? triangle = 0
a.size = 57, b.size = 60
idx=1 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 60
idx=1 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 60
idx=1 ? triangle = 0

-- new frame
a.size = 57, b.size = 75
idx=0 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 75
idx=0 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 75
idx=0 ? triangle = 0
a.size = 57, b.size = 57
idx=1 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 57
idx=1 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 57
idx=1 ? triangle = 0

-- new frame
a.size = 57, b.size = 76
idx=0 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 76
idx=0 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 76
idx=0 ? triangle = 0
a.size = 57, b.size = 51
idx=1 ? circle = 0
a.size = 80, b.size = 51
idx=1 ? cross = 0
a.size = 45, b.size = 51
idx=1 ? triangle = 0

So the sizes of compared contours differ (so the contours differ), yet match == 0 always. What's going on here?

Edit: OpenCV version is 2.4.9 (cloned & built yesterday).

How can I recognize some basic (usually rotated) shapes:

• circle,
• "empty" circle,
• cross,
• empty triangle,

using OpenCV? What's the most straightforward way? It would be nice if the user could "define" his own shapes somehow (load a template image, possibly).

I'd like to map each recognized shape to its type (circle, triangle etc.) and a position of its center. (And its rotation if possible).

For circles HoughCircles could be used (there's no rotation in this case, too). But what about the others? Template matching doesn't support rotation and scaling, right?...

Here's the input:

@berak Done. :) Would you mind taking a look at http://answers.opencv.org/question/14785/ ?

I get a SIGSEGV when trying to get a frame from an .avi file:

#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>

using namespace cv;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

    VideoCapture capture("V:/DATA/640.AVI");
    if (!capture.isOpened())
        return -1;
    Mat tmp;
    capture >> tmp;
    return 0;
}

capture >> tmp; is the failing line. Debugger says that the instruction marked below in function ff_yuyvToY_sse2 is causing the problem:

OpenCV version is 2.4.9 compiled from source (cloned yesterday).

Edit: works as expected when I remove opencv_ffmpeg.dll from PATH... It would be nice, however, to be able to use FFMPEG...

@berak Ok, I've run make install, for some reason it also rebuilded some part of it... But it works. Thank you! Next problem is that capture >> frame; causes the program to crash... but at least it starts. ;p

@berak Oh, dear God. I'm using headers from 2.4.5... But where are the headers from 2.4.9? I used CMake to compile it.

@berak cv::String x("V:/DATA/320.AVI"); capture.open(x); instead of capture.open("V:/DATA/320.AVI"); renders the same error... cv::String is std::string.

@berak Newest from git: 2.4.9.

I'm trying to use an .avi file as my source. (Camera capture already works.) My project compiles without problems, but during linking I get the error:

undefined reference to 'cv::VideoCapture::open(std::string const&)'

What should I do? In which library is this std::string overload of VideoCapture::open() put?

Edit: VideoCapture(0) (camera capture) compiles, links and works, so VideoCapture(std::string) has to be somewhere else that in libs I'm already linking with... right?

Edit: OpenCV version: 2.4.9 (cloned from git yesterday).
