Question

I need to compute sum of elements in all columns separately.

Now I’m using:

Matrix cross_corr should be summed.

Mat cross_corr_summed;
for (int i=0;i<cross_corr.cols;i++)                                                     
    {
        double column_sum=0;
        for (int k=0;k<cross_corr.rows;k++)
        {
            column_sum +=cross_corr.at<float>(k,i);             
        }
        cross_corr_summed.push_back(column_sum);
    }

The problem is that my program takes quite a long time to run. This is one of parts that is suspicious to cause this.
Can you advise any possible faster implementation???

Thanks!!!

You need a cv::reduce:

cv::reduce(cross_corr, cross_corr_summed, 0, CV_REDUCE_SUM, CV_32S);
