Abstract
Object recognition can be improved by verifying a geometric consistency between matching interesting points pairs of two images, as objects with the images are more likely to match when the matching interesting points pairs are geometrically consistent. The geometric consistency between matching interesting points pairs can be verified in accordance with a topology code distance vector (D). The topology code distance vector (D) may be evaluated in accordance with a decision tree classifier, which may be trained in accordance with previous or historic topology code distance vectors. The topology code distance vector (D) may be computed from a subset of matching interesting points pairs having the shortest matching distance.
