Your Perl-driven cyborgs can soon recognize objects
I've made some progress in getting ccv to compile under Windows. Now I can start with opening up the API and writing some XS for it. Soon, the below image can be created completely from within Perl instead of using a shell call out to the executable to find "interesting" points in the object and the scene and match them together.
![]()
The SIFT algorithm seems to be quite a useful tool to do feature recognition without any prior training. I hope to (ab)use this to recognize objects and how they move around in movies. Also, I imagine this can be used to automatically stitch images together.
I'm the author of various CPAN modules. I'm also one of the admins of perlmonks.org.
Cool stuff! Keep us posted!
This guy Liu Liu is a genius.
The training step is a bit hard, comparable to tesseract.
Awesome! Any chance to get it working together with PDL?
