+
+Matchers of keypoint descriptors in OpenCV have wrappers with a common interface that enables you to
+easily switch between different algorithms solving the same problem. This section is devoted to
+matching descriptors that are represented as vectors in a multidimensional space. All objects that
+implement vector descriptor matchers inherit the DescriptorMatcher interface.

+    random points (of course, those point coordinates are random, but they are generated from the
+    pre-defined seed, so each element of BRIEF descriptor is computed deterministically from the pixel
+    rectangle), find point of maximum brightness and output index of the winner (0, 1 or 2). Such
+    output will occupy 2 bits, and therefore it will need a special variant of Hamming distance,

+    bin (that will also occupy 2 bits with possible values 0, 1, 2 or 3).
+    @param scoreType The default HARRIS_SCORE means that Harris algorithm is used to rank features
+    (the score is written to KeyPoint::score and is used to retain best nfeatures features);
+    FAST_SCORE is alternative value of the parameter that produces slightly less stable keypoints,
+    but it is a little faster to compute.

+/** @brief Class for extracting blobs from an image. :
+
+The class implements a simple algorithm for extracting blobs from an image:
+
+1.  Convert the source image to binary images by applying thresholding with several thresholds from
+    minThreshold (inclusive) to maxThreshold (exclusive) with distance thresholdStep between
+    neighboring thresholds.
+2.  Extract connected components from every binary image by findContours and calculate their
+    centers.
+3.  Group centers from several binary images by their coordinates. Close centers form one group that
+    corresponds to one blob, which is controlled by the minDistBetweenBlobs parameter.
+4.  From the groups, estimate final centers of blobs and their radiuses and return as locations and
+    sizes of keypoints.
+
+This class performs several filtrations of returned blobs. You should set filterBy\* to true/false
+to turn on/off corresponding filtration. Available filtrations:
+
+-   **By color**. This filter compares the intensity of a binary image at the center of a blob to
+blobColor. If they differ, the blob is filtered out. Use blobColor = 0 to extract dark blobs
+and blobColor = 255 to extract light blobs.
+-   **By area**. Extracted blobs have an area between minArea (inclusive) and maxArea (exclusive).
+-   **By circularity**. Extracted blobs have circularity
+(\f$\frac{4*\pi*Area}{perimeter * perimeter}\f$) between minCircularity (inclusive) and
+maxCircularity (exclusive).
+-   **By ratio of the minimum inertia to maximum inertia**. Extracted blobs have this ratio
+between minInertiaRatio (inclusive) and maxInertiaRatio (exclusive).
+-   **By convexity**. Extracted blobs have convexity (area / area of blob convex hull) between
+minConvexity (inclusive) and maxConvexity (exclusive).
+
+Default values of parameters are tuned to extract dark circular blobs.
