Assignment 5 + Image Intelligence^TM engine brochure

WORTH: 25% towards final mark for course

Due: 24th May, noon

Dates of presentations (the same groups as for Hypermedia project):

A whole submission of each group including a CBIR system and individual / group
presentations should be handed in to Georgy on May 24th (just after the lecture)
on a CD-ROM with the Group label. For the presentation itself, the contents of your
CD-ROM will be placed to the computer in our lecture room.

• Each group is free in choosing programming tools / languages to build their
  simple CBIR system. Those who prefer a Java application may look through
  Java 2D^TM Graphics and Imaging tools available in advanced current versions
  of Java.
• The MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) VisTex texture database:
  its simplest part to be used in Assignment 5 contains 166 colour images of
  size 128 x 128 pixels. The whole database was developed by Prof. R. Picard,
  Ch. Graczyk, S. Mann, J. Wachman, L. Picard, and L. Campbell at the Media
  Laboratory, MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

  The images are in a raw PPM (portable pixel map) file format with a very simple
  starting textual tag giving a "magic number" (the two ASCII characters P6) to
  identify the format, commenting lines to be ignored (all lines after the first line
  with P6 that begin with #), image dimensions (the line containing an integer
  width in decimal ASCII characters, whitespace, and an integer height in decimal
  ASCII characters), and signal size (the line with 255 means one byte per signal):

  P6
  # CONTENTS sand 
  # LIGHTING daylight indirect
  # PERSPECTIVE frontal plane
  # BRODATZ D29
  # SRC photo josh
  # NOTES -
  128 128
  255
  ....{image data in 3 bytes (R,G,B) per pixel}  
  

  You may use a free for non-commercial use IrfanView image viewer / convertor
  to transform the PPM files into almost any format you need for your CBIR system.

Assignment Dropbox

For some assignments it is necessary for you to submit part or all of it electronically. Unless your lecturer told you otherwise, this is done through the Web Dropbox.
