In this paper, we present a novel scale-and rotation-invariant interest point detector and
descriptor, coined SURF (Speeded Up Robust Features). It approximates or even
outperforms previously proposed schemes with respect to repeatability, distinctiveness, and
robustness, yet can be computed and compared much faster. This is achieved by relying on
integral images for image convolutions; by building on the strengths of the leading existing
detectors and descriptors (in casu, using a Hessian matrix-based measure for the detector …
