CornerFilter
✖
CornerFilter
computes a measure for the presence of a corner for each pixel in image and returns the result as an intensity image.
Details and Options
- CornerFilter implements a variety of corner-detection methods based on gradient computations.
- CornerFilter works with arbitrary 2D and 3D images.
- When applied to multichannel images, CornerFilter finds corner signatures across channels.
- CornerFilter[image] is equivalent to CornerFilter[image,2].
- CornerFilter[image,{r1,r2}] specifies different radii in vertical and horizontal directions.
- CornerFilter takes a Method option that specifies how to compute the corner metric. The default setting is "ShiTomasi". Available methods include:
-
"HarmonicMean" harmonic mean of eigenvalues method "HarrisStephens" Harris–Stephens corner detection {"HarrisStephens",k} Harris–Stephens method with sensitivity parameter k "ShiTomasi" minimum eigenvalue method - By default, the Harris–Stephens method uses a sensitivity parameter with Image objects and with Image3D objects.
- The parameters of the Gaussian derivatives to be computed can be specified using Method->{method,"Gaussian"->{ρ,σ}}. The default setting is "Gaussian"->{r,r/2}.
