The-Blob-Tracer-Project / blob-tracer

The project focuses on implementing object tracking algorithms. The focus will be on developing a numerical tool for tracking any arbitrary shape-changing features/structures as they wander in the sky or inside a laboratory device.

Hi sir can you please be more specific like what's the topic of your issue and what you want to be solved

RupakMukherjee commented 3 years ago

Hi,

This project is mostly related to tracking shape changing objects. For example, imagine a jelly (or cloud in sky) is moving in space. Now imagine, you have multiple such jelly-blobs (or bunch of clouds) wandering here and there. If I give you only a set of (say thousand) still pictures, how do you identify, which jelly-blob is moving from where to where.

Does that answer your query?

If you have any specific doubt, feel free to reply back.

Best, Rupak.

Hi,

So now I get the idea of your project but, I am still not able to get what issues you are having and where you need help. It would be my pleasure to work on this project but I am not getting what issue you are having in this project.

Thank you.

Sincerely, Abhishek

Okay, let's look a bit closely.

Imagine two non-overlapping circles (think they are two clouds) to begin with. Let's denote the circles as, "A" and "B". Now, as we see, clouds change their shape as they move in sky. Now think, the two circles move in sky and keep changing their shape. After a small time the clouds move to a new position and their shapes have got changed. Let's call the two deformed circles as "C" and "D". Question is whether ("A" -> "C"; "B" -> "D") is right, or, ("A" -> "D"; "B" -> "C") is right? Initially it looks very trivial. But now imagine you don't have the whole movie available with you when the clouds were moving. You have only two images at your hand. The first position with circular shapes ("A", "B") and the final position ("C", "D"). What happens very often is, the movies that we shoot using a camera (or satellite data to capture position of clouds) comes with a "finite" "frame-rate". Let me exaggerate, a bit for easy understanding. Let's imagine, the camera captures 1 image per hour. Now if the cloud (or any shape changing object) moves very quickly, it can be hard to identify which cloud is moving from where to where.

Does this help?
