Nope---it's the sign of the Hessian trace which is used to speed up
matching in SURF.

SURF is another scale invariant feature detection and description scheme
that is supposed to be simpler, faster and better than SIFT.  I am very
happy to see that implemented and, to play with it, wrapped
it into a Plugin similar to those for SIFT/MOPS.  Find that in an
experimental branch `ImageJ_SURF' of Fiji:

git checkout -b ImageJ_SURF origin/ImageJ_SURF
./Build.sh
./fiji

I wrote to the author and he will look at that and tell more during the
coming days.  I hope to see it integrated in Fiji soon :)

Best,
Stephan
