Lots of useful help on this list! Thanks to all of the contributors. I'm having a problem "visualising" the results of my cascade filter training and I don't see any similar posts here.
After training a cascade filter I try to run the visualisation tool:
opencv_visualisation -i positive/IMG_0057.jpg -m training_data/cascade.xml
which gives:
the cascade file 'true' could not be loaded.
I created an empty filed called true but that simply leads to other errors (strace below but it probably is not useful as this was just a shot in the dark). Am I missing an argument to opencv_visualisation? Any hints would be appreciated.
