fast::BlockMatching class
#include <FAST/Algorithms/BlockMatching/BlockMatching.hpp>

Block matching tracking of an image stream.

Contents

2D block matching on the GPU. Input is a stream of input images, output is a stream of images with 2 channels giving the x,y motion of each pixel.

Base classes

class ProcessObject
Abstract base class for all process objects.

Function documentation

static MatchingMetric fast::BlockMatching::stringToMetric(std::string name)

Parameters
name
Returns MatchingMetric

Convert string of metric to type

std::shared_ptr<BlockMatching> fast::BlockMatching::create(int blockSize, int searchSize, MatchingMetric metric, bool forwardBackwardTracking, int timeLag)

Create instance.

Parameters
blockSize Must be odd.
searchSize Must be odd.
metric Similarity metric to use
forwardBackwardTracking Do forward-backward tracking and take average of the two. Will be slover.
timeLag How many frames to skip when comparing. Default is 1, comarping frame t vs frame t-1.
Returns instance

void fast::BlockMatching::setMatchingMetric(MatchingMetric type)

Parameters
type

Select which matching metric to use

void fast::BlockMatching::setBlockSize(int size)

Parameters
size

Set size of the blocks to match. Has to be odd

void fast::BlockMatching::setSearchSize(int size)

Parameters
size

Set size of search grid around x,y. Has to be odd

void fast::BlockMatching::setIntensityThreshold(float value)

Parameters
value

Set an intensity threshold, do not do block matching on pixels where the mean of the block is below this threhsold.

void fast::BlockMatching::setTimeLag(int timeLag)

Parameters
timeLag

Set time lag of block matching. A time lag of 2 will use frame t, and t-2 for block matching. Default is 1

void fast::BlockMatching::setForwardBackwardTracking(bool forwardBackward)

Parameters
forwardBackward

Set whether to use forward-backward tracking or not. Disabled by default.

void fast::BlockMatching::setRegionOfInterest(Vector2i offset, Vector2i size)

Parameters
offset from origin to start the ROI in pixels
size of the ROI in pixels

Set a region of interest (ROI) to run the block matching in.
