Detailed Description

The n-dimensional matrix class.

The class represents an n-dimensional dense numerical array that can act as a matrix, image, optical flow map, 3-focal tensor etc. It is very similar to CvMat and CvMatND types from earlier versions of OpenCV, and similarly to those types, the matrix can be multi-channel. It also fully supports ROI mechanism.

There are many different ways to create cv::Mat object. Here are the some popular ones:

Once matrix is created, it will be automatically managed by using reference-counting mechanism (unless the matrix header is built on top of user-allocated data, in which case you should handle the data by yourself). The matrix data will be deallocated when no one points to it; if you want to release the data pointed by a matrix header before the matrix destructor is called, use cv::Mat::release().

The next important thing to learn about the matrix class is element access. Here is how the matrix is stored. The elements are stored in row-major order (row by row). The cv::Mat::data member points to the first element of the first row, cv::Mat::rows contains the number of matrix rows and cv::Mat::cols - the number of matrix columns. There is yet another member, cv::Mat::step that is used to actually compute address of a matrix element. cv::Mat::step is needed because the matrix can be a part of another matrix or because there can some padding space in the end of each row for a proper alignment.

Given these parameters, address of the matrix element M_{ij} is computed as following:

addr(M_{ij})=M.data + M.step*i + j*M.elemSize()

if you know the matrix element type, e.g. it is float, then you can use cv::Mat::at() method:

addr(M_{ij})=&M.at<float>(i,j)

(where & is used to convert the reference returned by cv::Mat::at() to a pointer). if you need to process a whole row of matrix, the most efficient way is to get the pointer to the row first, and then just use plain C operator []:

   // compute sum of positive matrix elements
   // (assuming that M is double-precision matrix)
   double sum=0;
   for(int i = 0; i < M.rows; i++)
   {
       const double* Mi = M.ptr<double>(i);
       for(int j = 0; j < M.cols; j++)
           sum += std::max(Mi[j], 0.);
   }

Some operations, like the above one, do not actually depend on the matrix shape, they just process elements of a matrix one by one (or elements from multiple matrices that are sitting in the same place, e.g. matrix addition). Such operations are called element-wise and it makes sense to check whether all the input/output matrices are continuous, i.e. have no gaps in the end of each row, and if yes, process them as a single long row:

   // compute sum of positive matrix elements, optimized variant
   double sum=0;
   int cols = M.cols, rows = M.rows;
   if(M.isContinuous())
   {
       cols *= rows;
       rows = 1;
   }
   for(int i = 0; i < rows; i++)
   {
       const double* Mi = M.ptr<double>(i);
       for(int j = 0; j < cols; j++)
           sum += std::max(Mi[j], 0.);
   }

in the case of continuous matrix the outer loop body will be executed just once, so the overhead will be smaller, which will be especially noticeable in the case of small matrices.

Finally, there are STL-style iterators that are smart enough to skip gaps between successive rows:

   // compute sum of positive matrix elements, iterator-based variant
   double sum=0;
   MatConstIterator_<double> it = M.begin<double>(), it_end = M.end<double>();
   for(; it != it_end; ++it)
       sum += std::max(*it, 0.);

The matrix iterators are random-access iterators, so they can be passed to any STL algorithm, including std::sort().
