Resumen

Key point extraction and description mechanisms play a crucial role in image matching, where several image points must be accurately identified to robustly estimate a transformation or to recognize an object or a scene -- New procedures for keypoint extraction and for feature description are continuously emerging -- In order to assess them accurately, normalized data and evaluation protocols are required -- In response to these needs, we present a (1) new evaluation framework that allow assessing the performance of the state-of-the-art feature point extraction and description mechanisms, (2) a new image dataset acquired under controlled affine and photometric transformations and (3) a testing image generator -- Our evaluation framework allows generating detailed curves about the performance of different approaches, providing a valuable insight about their behavior -- Also, it can be easily integrated in many research and development environments -- The contributions mentioned above are available on-line for the use of the scientific community
