This is the end, beautiful friend -The End by The Doors Katherine Scott, Anthony Oliver, Victor and Vijay, it has been a pleasure working with you guys. So after exactly three months, Google Summer of Code 2012 has come to … Continue reading
GSoC 2012 Mid-Term evaluations are over and I passed. As usual we had a meeting on Wednesday 11:30 am EST on IRC where I and Kat discussed the tracking scenario of SimpleCV and how to implement different tracking algorithms with … Continue reading
CAMShift stands for Continuously Adaptive Mean Shift. It is the basis for the face-tracking algorithm in OpenCV. It combines the basic Mean Shift algorithm with an adaptive region-sizing step. The kernel is a simple step function applied to a skin-probability … Continue reading
The Sobel Operator is used in Image Processing to get the edges in the image. It is a Discrete Differentiation Operator which computes an approximation of the gradient of the image intensity function.The Sobel operator is based on convolving the … Continue reading
In my recent blog posts, I have mentioned that python is quite slow and I need to find an option to increase run-time speed of my python port of OpenTLD. I need to extend Python with C++ and hence I … Continue reading
As my Google Summer of Code 2012 project, I have to port OpenTLD to python using OpenCV and SimpleCV. OpenTLD a.k.a. Predator was first made by Zdenek Kalal in MATLAB. OpenTLD. It is one of the most reliable algorithms to … Continue reading
Work in the first two weeks of my Google Summer of Code had been quite slow. I couldn’t find much time as I was busy with travel and some college stuff. I have finished making a Median Flow Tracker for … Continue reading
So, my GSoC 2012 package arrived today. Got a pen, diary (tablet as they say), Google prepaid card (with $505 balance.. woohoo) and a cool GSoC sticker. I was hoping to get a GSoC t-shirt. Anyway, the package has arrived, … Continue reading
My proposal Automatic segregation of conveyor belt items using SimpleCV as submitted to SimpleCV has been accepted for Google Summer of Code 2012. I would like to thank Katherine Scott and Anthony Oliver for their guidance and support and providing … Continue reading
Finally. The wait is over. After an hour, I found out via email that my proposal “Automatic segregation of conveyor belt items using SimpleCV” as submitted to “SimpleCV” has been accepted for Google Summer of Code 2012. I am so … Continue reading
