Conclusions
This paper proposed a novel two-step matching strategy and Center Symmetry
FREAK (CS-FREAK) for feature description and matching. Compared with the pre-
vious proposed FREAK descriptor, CS-FREAK is quite different in the utilization of
the neighborhood intensity information, encoding scheme, comparison rule and
matching strategy. More specifically, it simplifies the 8-layer retina modal and more
fully explores the local intensity relationships by considering the intensity order
among the points in 4 directions around the sample points. Experimental results on
various image transformations have shown that the proposed two-step matching strat-
egy and CS-FREAK outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.
