Hi,

I downloaded the SIFT binary and extracted it to a folder. I have set the file in both properties file and am also passing the file as "new File("path");" when instantiating.

But, when I try to run SIFT, it shows an error saying The pipe is being closed and returns a list of points of zero size. :(

What should I do?

Best of regards,
Nibras.

Hi Nibras,

Have you tried Sift on the commandline? Just to see if it works at all.

I actually tried running it via command-line and it worked perfectly. Then, I realized there was an issue with ImageJ not saving the PGM as 8-bit. I tried to create another wrapper based on your code which forced ImageJ to convert the image to 8-bit but it didn't work either. There seems to be a problem with the way the input/output streams. However, I managed to create a simple wrapper that uses BoofCV for the SIFT extraction since I'm on a tight schedule.

I'm using JDK8. Latest version. Eclipse environment.

And, a huge thanks for this library but I wish it supported more features. I'm working on a genetic feature construction/selection algorithm and a generic feature library that supports multiple feature extractors goes a long way.

Best of Regards,
Nibras.

Hi Nibras,

sorry to answer so late. But if you have a recommendation about an algorithm that could be added (and is simple enough to implement it in reaonable time):
just drop us a note here on the mailinglist.

Thanks a lot
Franz
