rohitgirdhar / bowimagesearch Goto Github PK

Based on:
Object Retrieval with Large Vocabularies and Fast Spatial Matching
Philbin, J. and Chum, O. and Isard, M. and Sivic, J. and Zisserman, A. (CVPR 2007)

• MATLAB
• VLFeat (MATLAB API)

Clone, cd into the project and run matlab

$ git clone https://github.com/rohitgirdhar/BoWImageMatching.git
$ cd BoWImageMatching
$ matlab

In MATLAB:

>> cd src
>> edit bow_getDefaultParams.m % change the path to vlfeat's vl_setup script
>> bow_getDefaultParams; % get the params variable with default settings

>> model = bow_computeVocab('~/imagesDir', params);

Alternate option: Train only on subset of images from imagesDir/, given from a list

>> model = bow_computeVocab('~/imagesDir', params, 'imgsListFpath', '/path/to/TrainSet.txt');

>> iindex = bow_buildInvIndex('~/imagesDir', model);

Alternate option: Train only on subset of images from imagesDir/, given from a list

>> iindex = bow_buildInvIndex('../../../datasets/hussain_hotels/corpus', model, 'imgsListFpath', '../eval/TrainSet.txt');

>> I = imread('path/to/img.jpg');
>> config.topn = 10; % set the number of top matches to retrieve
>> config.geomRerank = 1; % set to have geometric reranking, ignore if not.
>> [imgPaths, scores] = bow_imageSearch(I, model, iindex, config);
>> imgPaths % prints the image paths (relative to base directory) of top matches
>> scores % prints the scores: tf-idf without geometric reranking, and #inliers with geometric reranking

Note: Geometric reranking done by fitting a fundamental matrix using RANSAC, and counting the number of inliers.

The dataset should be arranged in a directory structure as follows:

|-corpus/
    |--class1
    |   |--img1.jpg
    |   |--img2.jpg
    |--class2
    |   |--img1.jpg

This distribution already has eval/TestSet.txt and eval/TrainSet.txt. Use this only to recompute these sets.

>> [train, test] = splitTestTrain('path/to/corpus/', 700); % 700 is the number of images in test set. remaining in train.
>> f = fopen('TrainSet.txt', 'w'); % write it out to this file
>> for i = 1 : numel(train)
     fprintf(f, '%s\n', train{i});
   end
>> % similarly for the test set

>> matlabpool open <ncores> % use parpool on newer matlab version
>> cd $PROJECT_ROOT/eval
>> runTests('/path/to/corpus/', model, iindex, '/path/to/output_dir', 'imgsListFpath', '/path/to/TestSet.txt')
