Code With Jim

Can you tell what it is? Computer Vision. Yesterday, I spend almost whole day exploring this opencv module using Python. What I discovered was revealing. Even at the very basic level, I could produce some interesting Image and Video manipulation using all the code collected from documentation and many, many blog tutorials. If you are a total noob like me, I am still getting used to knowing that the CV in OpenCV means Computer Vision! Actuallly, I recalled that I did try to get into OpenCV few years back ago, when I knew no Python and when Python opencv module was probably still early. It was all C++ code and it was a little bit too hard for me. I read a couple of books about opencv at the library, I did not understand a single thing. That was back then. Today, for strange reason, with a bit of knowledge of Python, I can go a little further. EDGE DETECT IN OPENCV Me holding you know what. What leads me this far is my curiosity on how we can replicate Wolfram Langu...

This is going to be a really quick blog post. Fine Tuned "Ada" Edge Detect result. IMAGE & WOLFRAM ALPHA APP Last night, I was again exploring this Wolfram Alpha app on the iPhone, which I paid for extra few dollars to get "Image" upload feature. I am curious about this kind of thing, so I feed in a photo I took the other day of this very vivid photos of rainbow wings on the street: I give extra input "Edge Detect" and naturally Wolfram Alpha app can do the Edge Detect thing. And I also tried "Posterize" filtering. That is pretty impressive because of these things: It supposed to detect the image and predict what the image is, rarely, but sometimes it can give you the right guess. It gives some Mathematical analytic, sometimes it gives back location of the image  It gives you some options of what "filter" you can apply to the image It gives user a very easy way to process INPUT and OUTPUT. Pretty fa...
