hi every one,

I am doing project on image comparison using SIFT algorithm for keypoint detection. To increase the performance of image retrieval I was thinking of storing the descriptor in the database. But since descriptor is a matrix I am not getting how to save the descriptor.
please give me some idea to do this...

Thanx a lot in advance.....

Are you going to issue queries to the database to return only SOME of
the records that match your conditions? If not (like you simply want
to save and recall all of the data/variables), then why not just store
your data in a .mat file with the save() function and recall it with
the load() function?

yes, I will be retrieving only matched images from the database.
Is there a way for storing descriptor in the database??
