Re: [Gimp-user] GSOC 2013 Computational Photography Proposal

2013-04-16 Thread Siddharth
Hi,

I have some questions.

1) Will these filters be added as plugins?

2) Can we use OpenCV library with GIMP?

Best Regards,
Siddharth

The best way to proceed, is to pretend you already have been accepted, and
to figure out what you need to do to get some of this into GIMP. Students
that have already started and are seen as bug-fixers, as well as feature
contributors to the code base are more likely to be accepted by us in GSOC,
we want new contributors and care less about the actual features proposed.
We expect students to at least have submitted a well formed git
contribution as a patch in bugzilla before considering them. Help can be
had both from searching google as well as asking us on IRC.

Hi,

Yes, I did post it to blender. But they said - "All three proposals are
very cool, but quite more suitable for GIMP than for Blender".
Hence, I am applying here since these methods are currently missing in
GIMP.

Yes, I have build GIMP from source code.

How should I proceed further with my proposal?

Best Regards,
Siddharth

I have a feeling of deja vu. Didntt you post it verbatim to Blender
mailing list a few days ago as well? :)

Anyway, those are valid ideas, and edge-aware filters actaully are
perfectly applicable to photography as well.

Have you already bult GIMP from source code?

[Gimp-user] GSOC 2013 Computational Photography Proposal

2013-04-15 Thread Siddharth
Hi,

I am currently pursuing MS by Research in the field of computer vision and
image processing at IIIT- Hyderabad, India. I am interested in working for
GIMP organization this summer in a GSoC project.

Some of my own ideas:

a) *Image denoising*
*
*
I have found a latest research paper regarding this.

http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~eslgastal/AdaptiveManifolds/Gastal_Oliveira_SIGGRAPH2012_Adaptive_Manifolds.pdf

b) *Color2Gray*

Visually important image features often disappear when color images are
converted to grayscale. This algorithm reduces such losses by attempting to
preserve the salient features of the color image. The Color2Gray results
offer viewers salient information missing from previous grayscale image
creation methods.

http://www.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~leojia/papers/decolorization_iccp12.pdf

c) *Domain Transform for Edge-Aware Image Processing (Non-Photorealistic
Animation and Rendering) *

The processing involves high-quality edge-preserving filtering of images
(better than bilateral filter). The filter is applied on several image
processing tasks including edge-preserving smoothing, Depth-of-field
effects, stylization, detail enhancement, edge enhancement and pencil/color
pencil sketch.

http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~eslgastal/DomainTransform/Gastal_Oliveira_SIGGRAPH2011_Domain_Transform.pdf

d) *Surface Extraction from Texture*
*
*
http://www.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~leojia/projects/texturesep/texturesep12.pdf*
*

What are your views about this?

Best Regards,
Siddharth
