Nov 3, 2012 at 21:24 comment added Andrey Rubshtein @penelope, I guess now that I was not clear enough. I will try to expand it tomorrow. Thanks you for your comments.
Nov 3, 2012 at 20:05 comment added penelope Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "a thumbnail of the patch" can you explain? And the descriptor: normalized corss-correlation of you patch is what makes it rotationally invariant, not the fact that your patch was a ring or circle.

Nov 3, 2012 at 19:44 comment added Andrey Rubshtein @penelope, why not? Consider the following descriptor - a thumbnail of the patch, and you compare it with other descriptors with normalized cross-correlation. You can't mistake it with other objects in this way.
Nov 3, 2012 at 16:24 comment added penelope we are talking about keypoint (feature) descriptors. If we were talking about features (interest points), then detecting circular patches might be useful -- they are rotationaly invariant in combination with every descriptor. But a descriptor calculated at a circular patch is not - a white circle with horizontal diameter in black, and with a vertical one would produce very different descriptors if rotationally invariant method isn't used
