This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >50 is welcome to improve it.

hello there, I am trying to run opencv_createsamples.exe on my computer running Windows8(64-bit). My file is in directory C:\Emgu\bin\opencv_createsamples.exe. So whenever I try to run it from its directory using cmd it gives error: "The program can't start because opencv_core249.dll is missing from your computer.Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." I've also tried re-installing it but it doesn't work. Can somebody help me?

You probably need to add opencv_core249.dll to your system Path. This means locating it in your OpenCV install and adding that entire directory to your PATH variable in Windows->Advanced Settings.

This is the last step in the installation tutorial

1) Add the dll to the folder where the exe is located after manually compiling your createsamples.

2) Like mentioned above, add the dll folder of OpenCV to your operatings system PATH variable.

Hi, Can you tell me how to know how many number of positive samples to generate? And how to feed paramaters into opencv_traincascade such as -numPos -numNeg -numStages -precalcValBufSize -precalcIdxBufSize etc.

Create a new question for your problem, this is not the way to go and people won't look at the problem :)

Can I have some good tutorial to create a classifier stepwised? Tired of searching...bot no good one found

SuYo ( 2013-03-06 04:47:12 -0600 )edit

As a last help: http://note.sonots.com/SciSoftware/haartraining.html This is about the most common referred manual for classifier training. Following his steps it should all work. Next time, new problem = new question, also accept peoples answers when they help you, else people will stop helping out :)

In Visual Studio 2013 you need to add this to to Environment Variables and then Restart your pc. This is the path where .dll file located in.
