This document provides an overview and instructions for making a hand detector on Android using OpenCV. It discusses calculating a skin color histogram, detecting skin areas in an image, finding the largest skin area, and matching histograms using Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HoG). Steps include converting to HSV, generating a histogram in H-S space, applying the histogram to detect skin pixels, filtering and finding contours, labeling connected areas, and getting the largest. HoG extracts gradient features from blocks for matching.

OpenCL source code is separated “host source code” as C Language file & “kernel(device) source code” as CL file.
But Android’s APK can NOT include “kernel(device) source code” as CL file in APK file.
In this case, I Introduce "OpenCL CL files header Generator". It generates Convert CL files to const char* in Single C header file.

Gary Bradski, President and CEO of the OpenCV Foundation, presents the "OpenCV Open Source Computer Vision Library: Latest Developments" tutorial at the May 2015 Embedded Vision Summit.
OpenCV is an enormously popular open source computer vision library, with over 9 million downloads. Originally used mainly for research and prototyping, in recent years OpenCV has increasingly been used in deployed products on a wide range of platforms from cloud to mobile.
The latest version, OpenCV 3.0 is currently in beta, and is a major overhaul, bringing OpenCV up to modern C++ standards and incorporating expanded support for 3D vision. The new release also introduces a modular “contrib” facility that enables independently developed modules to be quickly integrated with OpenCV as needed, providing a flexible mechanism to allow developers to experiment with new techniques before they are officially integrated into the library.
In this talk, Gary Bradski, head of the OpenCV Foundation, provides an insider’s perspective on the new version of OpenCV and how developers can utilize it to maximum advantage for vision research, prototyping, and product development.

Foreground algorithms for detection and extraction of an object in multimedia...IJECEIAES
Background Subtraction of a foreground object in multimedia is one of the major preprocessing steps involved in many vision-based applications. The main logic for detecting moving objects from the video is difference of the current frame and a reference frame which is called “background image” and this method is known as frame differencing method. Background Subtraction is widely used for real-time motion gesture recognition to be used in gesture enabled items like vehicles or automated gadgets. It is also used in content-based video coding, traffic monitoring, object tracking, digital forensics and human-computer interaction. Now-a-days due to advent in technology it is noticed that most of the conferences, meetings and interviews are done on video calls. It’s quite obvious that a conference room like atmosphere is not always readily available at any point of time. To eradicate this issue, an efficient algorithm for foreground extraction in a multimedia on video calls is very much needed. This paper is not to just build Background Subtraction application for Mobile Platform but to optimize the existing OpenCV algorithm to work on limited resources on mobile platform without reducing the performance. In this paper, comparison of various foreground detection, extraction and feature detection algorithms are done on mobile platform using OpenCV. The set of experiments were conducted to appraise the efficiency of each algorithm over the other. The overall performances of these algorithms were compared on the basis of execution time, resolution and resources required.

Perspective ViewPerspective drawing is the most common drawing mode in 3D, where features in the foreground are shown larger than those off in the distance. This matches the way we see the world in our day-to-day lives, and the result is a realistic representation of 3D content. All scenes open in perspective viewing mode. You can switch between Perspective Perspective View and Parallel Isometric View viewing modes using the Drawing Mode drop-down menu in the Scene group on the View tab.
Lecture 8 – 3D GIS
Parallel / Isometric ViewParallel drawing renders the 3D view using a parallel projection, where features of the same physical size are rendered on-screen identically, regardless of their distance from the viewing camera. Parallel drawing is useful for architectural drawings, as well as for representing statistical data in a 3D view, such as extruded shapes symbolizing numeric values.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
