In this paper, a new image feature-absence importance （AI） feature, which can directly characterize the local structure information, is proposed. Greatly different from the most existing features, the proposed absence importance feature is mainly based on the consideration that the absence of the important pixel will have a great effect on the local structure. Two absence importance features, mean absence importance （MAI） and standard deviation absence importance （SDAI）, are defined and used subsequently to construct new algorithms for feature detection and matching. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed absence importance features can be used as an important complement of the gradient feature and applied successfully to the fields of feature detection and matching.展开更多
