Blog for work on my Masters thesis - a survey of methods for evaluating media understanding, object detection, and pattern matching algorithms. Mostly, it is related to ViPER, the Video Performance Evaluation Resource. If you find a good reference, or would like to comment, e-mail viper at cfar.umd.edu.

A New Version

I've put a new version on the web site. The full version is bloated; I think I included a couple of sample mpegs by mistake. I'll have to modify the build script to remove the larger mpeg. I also haven't tested the light version on a mac, but it works on my windows box. I'll have to borrow Charles's laptop later to see if it works.

New Main Classes

Since it was annoying setting up the run command in eclipse, and seemingly impossible to set variables from a jar manifest file, I've made two classes that invoke the apploader with the appropriate system preferences file for running the viper-gt application and the viper-cfg application (the ground truth data editor and the ground truth schema editor). The basic idea, without exception handling, is:

public class RunConfigEditor {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.setProperty("lal.prefs", "gt/CONFIG/gtc-config.n3");
		AppLoader.main(args);
	}
}

public class RunGT {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.setProperty("lal.prefs", "gt/CONFIG/gt-config.n3");
		AppLoader.main(args);
	}
}

Taking Classes at UMCP

As a student at UMCP, I have taken classes from a few professors. Still, it is annoying that teacher and class reviews haven't taken off on the web like I thought they would. I'm still waiting for amazon or google to step in. Until they do, however, there are a few sites worth looking at: the lowdown, terp gone wild and teacherreviews.com.
