Thesis

This is my current biggest fear. Sometimes I see Aiden giving me that look when he's too close to my computer.

First Time To Teach

This past thursday (12/10/2009) I had to opportunity to teach the Advanced Vision class because my advisor was out of town and couldn't teach the class. It was a really great opportunity to see what it's like to lecture for the entire class compared to just giving a presentation.

I ended up being a little short on time, took a bit of the rest of it to answer questions from the class and go into further detail about my research.

Attached in the presentation I gave.

Invisible

Very interesting talk about the invisible.

Used as an example

I had a neat experience recently (this past quarter). My old professor from when I took Artificial Intelligence asked if he could use my paper as an example for the class. That's the first time a professor has asked to use my work as an example for others.

Here's the link. Look for "Example Research Paper".

Computer Vision

Well, it's been quite a while since I've had a post.

So, what have I been up to? I guess a video would be more helpful than what I could say.

I've been working on Computer Vision. Specifically I've been working on object tracking. I did it as a small project for an Introduction to Computer Vision class and continued it with an Advanced Computer Vision class and an Independent Study. It's been quite a lot of work, and learned a lot along the way. Also, here's a YouTube playlist of some of the other results that I played around with, some better than other.

I have a research paper as well documenting my implementation and results that I'll post soon!

First Research Paper

Hi all, Long time no content. Anyway, I've been fighting through my first quarter in grad school and all I have to show for it is a crummy research paper. Anyway, if you're interested, here's a link to it:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/8096612/CBIR-Research-Paper?secret_password=22uh3l6h29p36v34eg5l

It's on CBIR (Content Based Image Retrieval) or being able to search images based on image content, not needing image tags or other meta data.

Enjoy
