2015-11-06 04:53:50 -0600 asked a question Adding GTK support to compiled OpenCv

How could I add GTK support to my compiled Opencv 3.0 without compiling from scratch?

2015-11-05 07:31:34 -0600 asked a question What is the complimentary operation of cvConvertScale for Mat?

I want to apply the same operation of cvConvertScale directly to Mat without changing into IplImage. How should I do the same to Mat structure?

However, after the normalization step they are all casted to 0. All of the values are kept as double. Is it a bug or impossible expectation to process such small numbers?

2015-07-06 05:10:36 -0600 asked a question OpenCv 3 cmake raises ImportError for numpy even I give the correct path of numpy?

I try to install opencv3 with python2 support. I give all the necessary cmake flags with the correst set of paths but still when I cmake it raises following error.

File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'numpy'

Ans if I build it with this configuration, I cannot import opencv from python as well. Here is my cmake flags for python image description

What I miss for the correct compilation of Opencv with python support?

2015-06-25 06:45:46 -0600 asked a question Converting Mat img to one dimensional float array in C++ which is in row, column, channel order?

I try to convert a Mat image object to float array which includes the data in row major order. Which means 1D array includes the first row of the image, then the second row etc. At the end, it repeats this for the next image channel.

Here is the silly pseudo description float *A = [first_row_first_channel, second_row_first_channel, ..., first_row_second_channel, ...]

Does Mat img.data provides this ordering or it gives something different? If this is different how can I get the desired orientation ?

2015-06-24 09:09:12 -0600 asked a question How does scale factor behave in HOG multiscale detector ?

I try to experiment with HOG multi scale detector but cannot understand the exact behavior of the scale factor parameter. Could you explain what is the intuition behind this parameter?

2015-06-10 12:27:56 -0600 asked a question hog.detectMultiScale exits program without any warning, if the given image is smaller than a threshold.

I try to run a pedestrian detector with hog.detectMultiScale(). However, I realized that if the given image is smaller than a threshold, it exits the program without any warning. I also did not see any comment in the docs about any limitation of image size. I am using OpenCV3 and here is the section of my code with a naive solution.;

                Rect bb = boundingBoxes[i];

                // ignore too small bbs
                if(bb.area() < BB_THRESHOLD || bb.height < 60 || bb.width < 60)
                    continue;


                cout << bb.height << endl;
                cout << bb.width << endl;

                // get bb image and run detector
                Mat bb_image = fg(bb);
                hog.detectMultiScale(bb_image, found, 0, Size(5,5), Size(30,30), 1.0, 0, true);

However if I make smaller Size(30,30) to Size(10,10), I also need to increase the check sizes. I could not figure out what is the exact size threshold but this is the case. Any idea for the solution or does it seem like a bug in opencv?

2015-06-10 08:57:30 -0600 commented answer Apply foreground mask to frames before pedestrian detection

Thanks for the return. Which tool gives me the connecteComponents. Do you mean finding contours?

2015-06-09 09:03:12 -0600 asked a question Apply foreground mask to frames before pedestrian detection

I used BackgroundSubtractorMOG2 for foreground detection and obtain a mask to apply frames before pedestrian detection by HOG. However, I could not see any argument in the detect() method of HOG. How can I use this mask to reduce the computation time of the detection process?

2015-06-09 07:12:11 -0600 asked a question How to get bounding box from HOGdescriptor::detect()

I far as I see detect() only returns a point whereas detectMultiScale() returns a detection bounding box. Is there any way to replicate this for detect() function as well?

2015-06-02 14:53:17 -0600 commented question How can I zoom a PTZ camera to a place by selecting the place from another camera's view?

@berak there is no calibration for PTZ but the static camera. I try to click on a place on the view of that static camera and move the PTZ to that place by a correct level of tilt and zoom level.

2015-06-02 04:12:03 -0600 asked a question How can I zoom a PTZ camera to a place by selecting the place from another camera's view?

I have 2 cameras. One a simple network camera and a PTZ camera. The simple one is statically located and constantly taking pictures of the same view. I screen the captured view by the simple camera. I try to zoom PTZ to a place I clicked on that screen. There are different challenges for this problem. The most catchy 2 of them are;

  1. PTZ should know, what level of zoom is required for the clicked place. Too much zoom might lose the view and too low be to coarse.
  2. PTZ should know how much and in what direction it should move to take the region of interest in its scope.

For these two challenges what should I do? Do you have any suggestions, references or pointers in mind? Any comment is welcome.

Addition1 : As far as I learned from WEB, this problem is called slew to cue.

2015-05-03 05:22:49 -0600 asked a question What is the best pratice to take input video frames from AXIS PTZ?

I attempt to develope a OpenCV app based on AXIS PTZ camera. It has a SDK but I could not really find out a way to get frames into OpenCV matrices. If there are some experienced ones, could you tell me the best practice to use AXISPTZ with OpenCV?

Basic expectation is to direct PTZ camera into the motion on the scene to be more precise about the project. For instance it will direct to the guy walking on a parking lot.
