The original code supplied by this paper uses the SURF detectors which a lot of people have issues compiling due to the copyright issues with the SURF implementation. I adopted their original code to make it working with ORB features.
This also contains usage samples for simple keypoint matching (with Lowe's ratio test and Fundamental-test for outlier rejection). Usage samples are in both C++ and Python. This can be used as a boilerplate code for many computer vision applications. Feature detection and matching is usually very common in a typical computer vision pipeline.
