Facebook : bientôt une reconnaissance faciale automatique ? Le réseau social a annoncé sa volonté de collecter les photos de profil de ses membres pour sa base de données biométriques. Une technique qui suscite de nombreuses interrogations... L'annonce a été glissée mine de rien. Depuis quelques jours, Facebook a changé ses conditions d'exploitation des photos de profil de ses utilisateurs. Facebook avait aussi lancé cet outil de reconnaissance facial en Europe en 2011 mais la CNIL (Commission nationale de l'informatique et des libertés) avait tout de suite émis des réserves qui avaient poussé le géant à retirer ce processus. Malgré une transparence qui se veut totale du côté du réseau social, la question est bien plus sensible qu'il n'y parait.

Motion Detection Algorithms - The Code Project - Multimedia Introduction There are many approaches for motion detection in a continuous video stream. All of them are based on comparing of the current video frame with one from the previous frames or with something that we'll call background. In this article, I'll try to describe some of the most common approaches. In description of these algorithms I'll use the AForge.NET framework, which is described in some other articles on Code Project: [1], [2]. The demo application supports the following types of video sources: AVI files (using Video for Windows, interop library is included); updating JPEG from internet cameras; MJPEG (motion JPEG) streams from different internet cameras; local capture device (USB cameras or other capture devices, DirectShow interop library is included). Algorithms One of the most common approaches is to compare the current frame with the previous one. But most cameras produce a noisy image, so we'll get motion in such places, where there is no motion at all. Motion Alarm
Automatic Face Detection in Photos with PHP – Corpocrat Blog I have always wondered how to detect faces automatically with php script. I have seen in many photo sharing and social network sites automatically detect a face and tag a name after being uploaded. In this article, i will explain how possible this task can be achieved with simplicity with OpenCV and PHP Facedetect extension. Both are free to download and opensource. Goal To auto detect faces in a photo and draw pink box around the faces with a php script running a linux centos server. Requirements - Linux server running Centos with SSH access - PHP/Apache - GD Library - OpenCV [Download] - PHP Facedetect extension [Download] PHP facedetect extension is very simple. Installation We install opencv and then we compile the php facedetect extension with php. How to Install OpenCV If you are running centos then one single line will install opencv. yum install opencv OpenCV may also need the following depencies to work properly and you will need to install them as well. How to test run OpenCV . run . then

Lambda Labs Face Recognition API βeta Everything You Need to Know About Image Compression - Noupe Design Blog Feb 03 2010 Proper use of image compression can make a huge difference in the appearance and size of your website image files. But compression is an often-misunderstood topic, partly because there’s a real lack of understanding on what the different types of compression are good for. If you don’t understand which type of compression to use for different types of images, you’ll likely end up with one of two results: either images that don’t look as good as they could, or image file sizes that are way larger than they need to be. Below is everything you need to know about image compression in relation to web design. We’ve covered the differences between lossless and “lossy” compression, the different file types and the compression techniques they use, and guidelines for which file formats work best for different kinds of images. 1. Many people feel that they should only use image formats that use lossless compression. Lossless Compression Lossy Compression 2. 3. Images with gradients.Photos.

The Tao Of Programming Translated by Geoffrey James Transcribed by Duke Hillard Transmitted by Anupam Trivedi, Sajitha Tampi, and Meghshyam Jagannath Re-html-ized and edited by Kragen Sittler Last modified 1996-04-10 or earlier Table of Contents Book 1 - The Silent Void Thus spake the master programmer: ``When you have learned to snatch the error code from the trap frame, it will be time for you to leave.'' Something mysterious is formed, born in the silent void. If the Tao is great, then the operating system is great. The Tao of Programming flows far away and returns on the wind of morning. The Tao gave birth to machine language. The assembler gave birth to the compiler. Each language has its purpose, however humble. But do not program in COBOL if you can avoid it. In the beginning was the Tao. Programmers that do not comprehend the Tao are always running out of time and space for their programs. How could it be otherwise? The wise programmer is told about Tao and follows it. The highest sounds are hardest to hear.
