A COSFIRE filter is automatically configured to be selective for a local contour pattern specified by a single example. The configuration comprises selecting given channels of a bank of Gabor filters and determining certain blur and shift parameters. Gabor filters are, however, not intrinsic to the method and any other orientation-selective filters can be used. A COSFIRE filter response is computed as the weighted geometric mean of the blurred and shifted responses of the selected Gabor filters. It shares similar properties with some shape-selective neurons in visual cortex, which provided inspiration for this work.
In our publication, which is given below, we demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed filters in three applications: the detection of retinal vascular bifurcations (DRIVE data set: 98.50% recall, 96.09% precision), the recognition of handwritten digits (MNIST data set: 99.48% correct classification),
and the detection and recognition of traffic signs in complex scenes (100% recall and precision).

COSFIRE filters are conceptually simple and easy to implement. They are versatile keypoint detectors and are highly effective in practical computer vision applications.
