Differences between AForge and OpenCV

Hello, I am just learning about computer vision and C#. It seems like two prominent image processing libraries are OpenCV and AForge. What are some of the differences of the two? I am making a basic image editor in C# and while researching I have come across articles on both. But I don't really know why I would choose one over the othe...

How to find the best parameters for a Genetic Algorithm?

Some Genetic Algorithm frameworks, such as http://www.aforgenet.com/ requires many parameters, such as mutation rate, population size, etc There is universal best numbers for such parameters? I believe that it depends on the problem (fitness function delay, mutation delay, recombination delay, evolution rate, etc). My first thought was ...

C# AForge.NET, feedforward backpropagation network learning but giving the same output regardless of input

I am using the AForge.NET framework to create a feedforward, backpropagation neural network. I have it setup and it's learning and all just fine, the problem is it outputs the same number regardless of what the input data is. I'm using various technical indicators on a stock market symbol and each one of these is an input neuron. The dat...

How to setup motion detection using AForge?

Hi, i'm trying to setup motiondetection using the AForge.NET framework. I'm using the information provided on this page. I've setup a DirectShow videostream which feeds a part of my desktop through a stream. I can choose this stream in the sample videoplayer project which is provided with AForge. (And I see my desktop through the playe...

Implementing a WebCam on a WPF App using AForge.Net

Hi I'm writing an WPF application where I need to show a Webcam feed. I was able to do this easly with the AForge framework.But when I've changed from a computer to a another computer the same code doesn't work the same way. In the first one the webcam feed works perfectly, but in the other one this does't occur, the feed has a lot of...

image focus calculation

Hi folks, I'm trying to develop an image focusing algorithm for some test automation work. I've chosen to use AForge.net, since it seems like a nice mature .net friendly system. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find information on building autofocus algorithms from scratch, so I've given it my best try: take image. apply sobel edge det...

Image processing using Aforge library for .net

hi all, I am a newbie in image processing techniques, what I want to do is if the user gives a unclear or damaged image, using the Aforge library, I should clear this and give a resultant image, we have an application but it only increases or decreases the darkness and brightness and gives a image. How to rectify this? may i know what...

Recognize objects in image

Hello I am in the process of doing a school project, where we have a robot driving on the ground in between Flamingo plates. We need to create an algorithm that can identify the locations of these plates, so we can create paths around them (We are using A Star for that). So far have we worked with AForged Library and we have created the...

Detecting person in cctv

Hi, Usin the AFORGE.NET API and its motion detection algorithms, it is possible to detect a moving object. However, is it possible to detect a person? This would depend on the shape, and other objects may be moving, so it does not seem straightforward. Thanks ...

AForge motion detection

I am using the following method to try and detect motion using AForge. Soon as I click the button the program freezes :S private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (motionDetectionOn == false) { motionDetectionOn = true; Console.WriteLine("ON"); } else{ ...

Robot, stereo vision, driving around and AForge

I am thinking about building a small robot that will drive around, judge distance to objects and avoid obstacles (hopefully it will) - nothing complex, just a home fun project. I am planning on using two webcams to decide distances and track objects, and AForge.Net as the framework. I have never done anything AI and robotics related, so...

Faking thermal image camera with aforge or any other .net solution , emgucv, tbeta..

I am simulating a thermal camera effect. I have a webcam at a party pointed at people in front of a wall. I went with background subtraction technique and using Aforge blobcounter I get blobs that I want to fill with gradient coloring. My problem = GetBlobsEdgePoints doesn't return sorted point cloud so I can't use it with, for example, ...

Tracking blobs in Aforge

I looked and looked. Does anybody know how to track blobs from Aforge? I know they don't have it implemented but I would really need to use Aforge because of the rest of the code I'm using. I saw some reference to Kalman filtering but I need some implementation and not theories. tnx, v. ...

find a color in an image in c#

Hi all, I stumbled across this youtube video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha5LficiSJM that demonstrates someone doing color detection using the AForge.NET framework. I'd like to duplicate what that author has done but I'm not sure how to do some image processing. It would appear that the AForge.NET framework allows you to pull d...

Matlab vs Aforge vs OpenCV

Hello , I am about to start a project in visual image-processing and have no had experience with Matlab, Aforge, OpenCV and was wondering if anyone had any experiences with these different software packages. I was also wondering which of the three packages were most efficient I assume OpenCV but has anyone had any experience? Thanks ...
