fix: include ptcloud header and dependency for opengl_testdata_generator sample #29293
## Summary
Fixes the build failure in samples/opengl/opengl_testdata_generator.cpp on the 5.x
branch when building with BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON.
## Root cause
The sample uses `loadMesh`, `TriangleShadingType`, and `TriangleCullingMode`, all
declared in `modules/ptcloud/include/opencv2/ptcloud.hpp`. The sample did not
include this header, and `samples/opengl/CMakeLists.txt` did not list
`opencv_ptcloud` as a required dependency, so the ptcloud module headers/libs
were not available when compiling this sample.
## Changes
- Added `#include "opencv2/ptcloud.hpp"` to opengl_testdata_generator.cpp
- Added `opencv_ptcloud` to `OPENCV_OPENGL_SAMPLES_REQUIRED_DEPS` in
samples/opengl/CMakeLists.txt
## Acceptance criteria
- [x] opengl_testdata_generator.cpp compiles with BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON
- [x] ptcloud module dependency declared so build system links it correctly
Closes#29292
samples: add color-coded bounding boxes for multi QR code detection #29281
Improves the existing qrcode.py sample by adding color-coded bounding boxes when multiple QR codes are detected simultaneously.
Previously all QR codes were drawn with the same green color, making it hard to distinguish between them visually.
This change adds a QR_COLORS palette so each detected QR code gets a unique color, improving visual clarity for multi-QR detection.
Co-authored-by: Ayush Gupta <gupta.ayushg@gmail.com>
Enable collectContours in detect_blob.cpp and draw the per-blob
contours returned by getBlobContours(), so the sample exercises the
public contour-collection API added in #21942.

[GSOC] feat: Add ALIKED feature extractor and LightGlue matcher with DNN integration #28986
## PR Description
### Summary
Integrate ALIKED and LightGlue into OpenCV's `features` module as native`Feature2D` and `DescriptorMatcher` implementations, enabling end-to-end neural feature matching within OpenCV's ecosystem.
---
### What's included
#### New classes
- **`cv::ALIKED`** extends `Feature2D`
- CNN-based keypoint detection
- 128-D descriptor extraction via ONNX Runtime
- **`cv::LightGlueMatcher`** extends `DescriptorMatcher`
- Deep feature matching with spatial context
- Uses keypoints and image sizes during matching
---
#### API design
- Standard OpenCV patterns:
- `detectAndCompute()`
- `match()`
- `knnMatch()`
- Multiple factory methods:
- ONNX model path
- In-memory model buffer
- Pre-loaded `dnn::Net`
- `Params` structs use `CV_EXPORTS_W_SIMPLE`
for Python/Java bindings support
- Optional DNN dependency:
- `HAVE_OPENCV_DNN` guards
- Stub implementations throw `StsNotImplemented`
---

vector<KeyPoint> kpts;
Mat descs;
aliked->detectAndCompute(image, Mat(), kpts, descs);
// Feature matching
Ptr<LightGlueMatcher> lg =
LightGlueMatcher::create("aliked_lightglue.onnx");
lg->setPairInfo(
kpts1Mat,

img1.size(),
img2.size()
);
vector<DMatch> matches;
lg->match(descs1, descs2, matches);
````
please refer to samples/cpp/example_features_aliked_lightglue.cpp
---
### Test plan
* Build with `BUILD_LIST=features,dnn`
* Build without DNN:
* Verify stubs compile
* Verify `StsNotImplemented` is thrown
* Run:
* `ctest -R Features2d_ALIKED`
* `ctest -R Features2d_LightGlueMatcher`
* Run sample application with:
* Real images
* Real ONNX models
* Verify Python/Java bindings compile and work
---
### Related
Phase 1 of the
"End-to-End AI Feature Extraction and LightGlue Matching Pipeline"
GSoC project.
Designed to be extensible to:
* XFeat
* SuperPoint
* Other neural feature extractors
### test dependency
Depends on the opencv_extra PR adding ALIKED and LightGlue test models:
- [opencv_extra PR](https://github.com/opencv/opencv_extra/pull/1366)
This PR adds the following ONNX models to `download_models.py`:
- `aliked-n16rot-top1k-640.onnx`
- `aliked_lightglue.onnx`
These models are required for the `features2d` tests in the main OpenCV repository to validate the ALIKED and LightGlue feature extraction and matching pipeline.

Fixes#28798.
The YuNet 2023mar int8 model from opencv_zoo doesn't detect anything on 5.x. With `--score_threshold
0.05` the detector still returns no boxes, so it's not just a confidence drop — the network output is
broken.
After dumping intermediate tensors and comparing against onnxruntime, the `obj_*` branches collapse to
~0 (saturated int8 `-128`), and the `cls_*` branches saturate the other way. Final score is `cls * obj`
so nothing ever crosses threshold.
The cause is in `Conv2Int8`'s VNNI kernel. It processes `K0 = 8` output channels per SIMD iteration and
writes them as one `K0`-wide block to `out + (n*K1 + k1)*planesize` with `k1 = k_base / K0`. When
`ngroups > 1` and `Kg = K/ngroups < K0`, consecutive groups share the same `k1` slot and overwrite each
other — only the last group's result survives. YuNet has six `1x1x3x3` depthwise conv heads (`Kg = 1`),
which is exactly this case.
The unfused `DequantizeLinear → Conv2 → QuantizeLinear` path is fine. The minimal fix here is to skip
the rewrite to `Conv2Int8` when `Kg < 8` so we fall back to the float path. A proper depthwise int8
kernel can be added later as a separate optimization.
Verified with `samples/dnn/face_detect.py` on Lena:
Before:
AssertionError: Cannot find a face in samples/data/lena.jpg
After:
Face 0, top-left coordinates: (204, 187), box width: 149, box height 212, score: 0.89
Cross-check vs onnxruntime: `cls_8` mean `0.673` (was `0.93`, ORT `0.673`), `obj_8` max `0.0039` (was
`0`, ORT `0.0039`).
The regression test is a single 16-group depthwise `QLinearConv` with non-zero `x_zp`, added to
`Quantized_Convolution`. Test data is in opencv_extra on the matching branch (~9 KB total).

GSoC 2025: Add Tokenizer Support to DNN Module #27534
merge with https://github.com/opencv/opencv_extra/pull/1276
### Summary
This pull request introduces initial support for a tokenizer module under `modules/dnn/src/tokenizer` as part of Google Summer of Code 2025 (Project: Tokenization for OpenCV DNN).
### Status
- [x] Project structure in place
- [x] Initial BPE tokenizer loading
- [x] Regex splitting (in progress)
- [x] Encoding logic for GPT-2 tokenizer (in progress)
- [ ] Documentation (to be improved)
### Goals
The goal is to support Hugging Face-compatible tokenization (e.g., GPT-2) natively in C++ to be integrated with DNN inference pipelines.
The core pipeline lives in `dnn/src/tokenizer/core_bpe.hpp` and `dnn/src/tokenizer/encoding.hpp`. For Unicode handling I’m using `dnn/src/tokenizer/unicode.hpp`, which is adapted from llama.cpp.
### Feedback
Please share early feedback on:
- General design structure
- Integration strategy with `dnn`
- Code organization or naming conventions
### Reference
Project: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/programs/2025/projects/79SW6eNK
Added ONNX Runtime as an optional wrapper #28444
This PR adds ONNXRuntime (ORT) as an _optional_ wrapper, which can be enabled by adding **WITH_ONNXRUNTIME** flag in CMake command.
Using ORT wrapper the inference time for _resnet50.onnx model_ has come to _**~7ms**_ from _**~14ms**_.
Also, we are able to run models like `ssd_mobilenet_v1.onnx`.
