• Computer Vision Toolbox - SURF features
• VLFeat Toolbox - SIFT features VLFeat Toolbox installation guide for MATLAB

1. Download the binary package of vlfeat to the current directory from VLFeat - Dowload page
2. Unpack the file. Terminal(bash) command to do so on Linux systems is

   tar -xzvf vlfeat-0.9.21-bin.tar.gz
3. Execute the following command in the MATLAB Command Window with the current directory as the workspace directory

   run('./vlfeat-0.9.21/toolbox/vl_setup')
   vl_version versbose

Note: vlfeat-0.9.21 - the version number might be different on basis of future updates to the toolbox. Personal recommendation to follow VLFeat Toolbox installation guide for MATLAB
