Example. 1:1 Matching

Assuming you unzipped the sofware in folder:

C:\IFSeg10\

The data used is in:

C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\

First of all, we will get a key image.

Figure 1. Key image for 1:1 Matching. The location of the key image is:

C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\key.jpg.

We will do a 1:1 Matching against the image,

C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\CIMG4643_mid_shelf1.JPG.

Figure 2. Step 1, selecting a key. After selecting a key image, the image will be displayed in the Key Panel.

The example will take three clicks:

1. Click the “1” button in the Toolbar, and select

"C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\key.jpg" (see Figure 2).

You can also drag & drop "C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\key.jpg" to the first text box.

Figure 3. Step 2, selecting a folder. After selecting a folder, the first image will be displayed in the Folder Panel (middle picture box). The list of image files will be displayed in the text window. The “F” button goes to the first image; the “>” button goes to the next image; and the “<” goes to the previous image. All sub-folders will be included.

2. Click the “2” button in the Toolbar and select the folder,

"C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\".

You can also drag & drop the folder, "C:\IFSeg10\ ex_object1\", to the second text box; see Figure 3.

Figure 4. Search the 30 x 5 grid of sub-images, or 150 sub-images.

3. Before we make a search, you will specify how to search via a “N by M” grid, i.e. how many sub-images we will look at for the specified key image. The default value is a 10 by 10 grid. Enter 30 and 5 in Figure 4.

Figure 5. Search the selected folder. Images that matched the “key” will be displayed in the Results Panel. Use the F, >, and < buttons to see the matched images. The “F” button goes to the first image; the “>” button goes to the next image; and the “<” goes to the previous image.

Click the “Search/1:1 Matching (N x M)” menu item in Figure 5.

Figure 6. The key image and the matched images are displayed side-by-side.

To see the first matched image, click the “F” button in the Results Panel (see Figure 5). To see the next matched image, click the “>” button in the Results Panel. The key and the matched images are displayed side-by-side.
