Evaluating Harris Method in Camera Calibration

In this paper, we focus on the performance of Harris feature point extraction method (Harris method) and evaluate its characteristic in some aspects. We propose a set of criteria for the evaluation: detection, accuracy, consistency, and efficiency. All of these criteria are defined theoretically and measured with different kinds of images. Especially, to verify the localization accuracy of Harris method, we synthesize a series of chessboard images in which the real coordinates of feature points could be computed. Therefore, the criteria proposed here are objective and believable
