método e aparelho para comparar uma primeira imagem com uma segunda imagem, sistema, e, método para recuperar imagens

A method comparing first and second images, including: identifying and matching first and second keypoints in the first and second images; arranging a distribution of values of a calculated plurality of first distance ratios in a histogram; determining a number of correct keypoint matches, including: determining a matrix, each matrix element corresponding to a respective pair of keypoint matches with a value corresponding to a difference between a value of the histogram including a distance ratio of the respective pair of keypoint matches and an outlier probability density value weighted by a parameter; determining the parameter value such that the matrix dominant eigenvector is equal to a vector with a first value if the pair of keypoint match is correct and a second value if the pair of keypoint match is incorrect; determining the number of correct keypoint matches based on the dominant eigenvalue associated to the dominant eigenvector.
