I think this guy is great. This is the first time I have bothered to write something about anything on the internet apart from facebook.

One of the best lectures I have seen. Very clear explanation of all the technical steps.

This professor has a talent for explaining things clearly and concisely.

As a French student, i understand most of the video and find it way clearer than the orignal paper from Lowe. I think it is due to to quality of the presentation, the fluency of the teacher. Moreover you can feel that the teacher knows what he is talking about! :) Great video!

Thanks to Dr Shah and the uploader. I just did this in class at my university, but it wasn't half as clear as this one. Very helpful. Amazing that an 8 year old recorded lecture is more relevant than a current live one

The part where he explained how the Laplacian of Gaussian works as a specific size of blob detector to achieve scale invariance at 18:19 was really helpful for me. My CV professor just skipped straight to difference of Gaussians and I didn't get why we used them or the benefit of it until now.

Thanks! I like how at 54:14 he says "and that's it. you can describe this in one slide".

This lecture really helped me acquire a better understanding of the SIFT algorithm. Thank you very much.
