Compilation. MODS depends on OpenCV version 2.4.9 and LAPACK
sudo apt-get install git cmake gfortran libblas-dev liblapack-dev build-essential gcc-multilib libopencv-dev python-opencv
sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:xqms/opencv-nonfree
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libopencv-nonfree-dev
if you want to use edge foci detector and bice descriptor from Microsoft, you will need to install wine as well: sudo apt-get install wine git clone cd mods
cd vlfeat
make
cd ../build
cmake ..
make
install cmake https://cmake.org/download/
install mingw http://www.mingw.org/
add $mods_source_dir/lapack_for_windows/lib to your Path environment variable
install OpenCV 2.4.8 If you have trouble compiling it, use this solution http://stackoverflow.com/a/21214333
Add opencv install root/bin to your path environmental variable
Put opencv install root CMakeLists.txt to SET (OpenCV_DIR "c:/opencv-2.4.8/opencv/sources/build/install")
cd build
cmake ..
Make sure, that CMake generates mingw32 make files, not Visual Studio.
mingw32-make

config_iter_cviu.ini, iters_cviu.ini - version, created to hangle extreme view changes.

config_iter_wxbs.ini, iters_wxbs.ini - version, described in .
"WxBS: Wide Baseline Stereo Generalizations" by Dmytro Mishkin, Jiri Matas, Michal Perdoch, Karel Lenc. http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.06603 It handles extreme appearance and geometrical changes. A bit slower than previous, but much more powerful. If use, please cite corresponding papers.
Note that exctract features takes only one step, so you may need to edit iters*.ini file to be able to extract features from next steps. See an example in iters_mods_cviu_onestep.ini
./extract_features examples/cat.png cat1.txt config_iter_cviu.ini iters_mods_cviu_onestep.ini
./extract_features examples/cat2.png cat2.txt config_iter_cviu.ini iters_mods_cviu_onestep.ini
