I believe that in your extract_descriptors.py file, you did not build a vocabulary tree using the correct api. There's an example(see step 2) in readme.

I did build the vocabulary tree according to your step 1~3, the code is just the same as it. When I change the descriptor to descriptors[0] generated in step 1, there is another issue, im_sims.get(im_id[0], im_id[1]) is inf, T T. I'm using opencv 2.4.13 and python 2.7 on mac os x.
