Re: [help-GIFT] GNU Question

[Müller , Wolfgang]

Hi Patty,

No, this is not a dumb question.

No, GIFT won't do that for you, unless you write such a plugin for it.

If you want to do something like that, I would rather go for writing a crawler and for getting myself informed about SIFT, SURF and ASIFT, which are probably the image analysis tools used in current recognition software.

Ah, and don't forget to check out the opencv library.

Cheers,

Wolfgang

I hope someone can help me. I hope I'm not out of line asking for your help.

I have several objects that are very old and have no identifying markings on them. Will this software allow me to scan a picture of them & will do an internet search for me? Like the "facial recognition" programs on TV - I'm not looking for faces just objects that are old without markings for identification.

If I am in the wrong place I would appreciate any direction anyone can give me.

Thank you for your time & any help you can give me.

Best wishes,
