Abstract

How to construct compact and powerful feature descriptors is an important research subject in the fields of machine vision and pattern recognition. After the research on SURF, the issue that the Haar descriptor of Speeded Up Robust Features(SURF) algorithm can not make full use of the information around the neighborhood of the feature points is found. To resolve the issue, this paper proposes a improved SURF based on the original SURF algorithm. The algorithm makes full use of the information around the neighborhood of the sub-block by masking with 3*3 window templates and then constructs the descriptor which can obtain better discriminative power. In addition, aimed at the primary direction of the SURF depends too much on the local region, the paper improves the confirmation of the primary direction. At last, this paper combines the nearest distance and the ratio between the nearest distance and the second nearest distance to match the interest points. The experiment shows that the algorithm proposed in this paper has better discriminative power, and the face recognition rate is enhanced.
