Lable/Area detection

asked 2017-01-27 02:38:22 -0600

Does anyone have a good approach to detect certain areas in an image and to receive the coordinates of that area?

I could think of training a neural network, probably a conv net, to detect the area but I'm quite new to opencv and i don't know how to retrieve the area afterwards.

What I actually want to do is to detect the area, retrieve the coordinates and to crop that area. Think of the facebook features of face detection. I want to do something similar but actually not with faces.

I've some knowledge of neural nets, but I can only think of general image classification as a whole but not with segments of the image.

First of all, OpenCV does not support convnet training, just loading existing models and processing them.

That being said, if your not more specific to your application, then we cannot pass you a solution. Simply because there are tons of segmentation approaches out there.
