SURFmex: A MATLAB SURF interface

SURFmex is a MATLAB interface for the Speeded Up Robust Features interest point detector, written by Petter Strandmark. It is a simple interface which just calls OpenCV. OpenCV webpage

Binaries are provided for Windows 64 bit and 32 bit. Users of Linux and MacOS will have to compile the C++ files themselves. The only required library is OpenCV.

Installation should be straight-forward, just execute "startup.m" in the SURFmex folder and type help surfpoints or run the examples provided in the "examples" directory.

History

• July 29th, 2010 v.2.1: Bug fix and added surfpoints_gpu using "Speeded Up SURF" library. Only 64-bit binaries provided, but old (v.2) 32-bit are included.
• July 28th, 2010 v.2.01: Switched to OpenCV 2.11 to fix a bug in OpenCV when zero features are found. Also improved error handling in general. 32-bit version was not updated because I don't own a 32-bit computer any more.
• April 6th, 2010 v.2: Switched to OpenCV to support other platforms (in particular Windows 64-bit requested by many users, including me)
• August 5th, 2008 Detailed timing information available
• August 2nd, 2008 Added the sign of the laplacian to the matching routine, for faster matching.
• July 31st, 2008 Initial release
