【问题描述】：

我目前正在研究 opencv 版本。 4.5.1 我想使用 SIFT 和 SURF，但我遇到了众所周知的问题，即它们已获得专利。我已经知道在4.5.1 下可以使用标志DOPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON 和DBUILD_opencv_xfeatures2d=ON。但是当我对 cmake 使用以下命令时

cmake -DOPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=home/myname/opencv_build/opencv_contrib/modules/xfeatures2d/src -DOPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON -DBUILD_opencv_xfeatures2d=ON .

我遇到了以下问题：

  what():  OpenCV(4.5.1-dev) /home/myname/opencv_build/opencv_contrib/modules/xfeatures2d/src/surf.cpp:1027: error: (-213:The function/feature is not implemented) This algorithm is patented and is excluded in this configuration; Set OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE CMake option and rebuild the library in function 'create'

几个小时以来，我一直在拼命尝试让程序运行并执行算法（SIFT、SURF），现在已经到了我（非常非常不情愿地）想要降级 opencv 的地步。 （我同时需要这个版本的 opencv 用于另一个项目）。

有没有人告诉我如何让 5.4.1 下的算法在这里工作。否则，我应该使用哪个 OpenCV 版本 (c++) 才能毫无问题地使用 SIFT 和 SURF。在使用 c++ 的情况下，我没有找到任何可以降级版本的方法。我发现的只是python的情况。

非常感谢您的帮助！！！

【问题讨论】：

您使用的选项应该在构建 OpenCV 本身时启用，而不是在构建项目时启用。

哦，这很尴尬。非常感谢！

【参考方案1】：

使用SIFT算法无需重新构建OpenCV，使用4.4.0以上版本即可。

发布亮点：

SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm has been moved to the main repository (patent expired)

对于 python：

pip install opencv-python==4.4.0.46

并直接访问它（no more xfeatures2d）

import cv2
sift = cv2.SIFT_create()

【参考方案2】：

使用以下命令构建 OpenCV：

cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
      -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \
      -D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=path/to/opencv_contrib/modules \
      -D OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON \
      path/to/opencv

【讨论】：

这个命令（在正确的目录中......我真丢脸）工作...... cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DBUILD_opencv_xfeatures2d=ON -DOPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE=ON -DOPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=。 ./../opencv_contrib/modules/ ..
