Add a simple C++ wrapper for ACF Detector #5

Open zeyuanxy opened 9 years ago

zeyuanxy commented 9 years ago

Hi Piotr, ACF is really fantastic! I have read your paper about that and I am impressed by its great performance and speed, thus I add some other code and one READMEs for a simple C++ wrapper for the function acfDetect. Thus it will be easy to deploy as the heavy-weighted MATLAB is not required to be installed. It is really a honor for me to help with this, Thanks!

Hi Edison --

Thanks, this sounds great! I won't have time in the immediate future to go through the code and merge it into the toolbox, but I'm sure people will find it useful regardless :-)

@zeyuanxy Hello .. sorry I have a question .. the compilation of code is in Matlab runtime?? We want to run out code with gcc compiler in DSP board . is there any way for doing that??

@mohammadjv6 Hi Mohammad Javad, First, you may need to talk about such issues in "issues", not pull request. I'm sorry to answer your question here, too. By the way, what you asked for is almost impossible in first place because there is no open-source implementation for ACF in C/C++, at least I have not found any and I have not implemented my own yet. After all, if there was a nice implementation which you could port on your DSP module, it would not guarantee run-time performance as you may need re-implement most of your code in ASM decelerations with knowledge of your DSP assembly language and optimization on parts which can be optimized with your DSP chip. Texas Instruments DSPs have a nice compiler for porting all or parts of your C/C++ code to run on DSP module entirely, but it usually causes lots of overheads by default that you may reach even lower performances. The best is to find/write a good C/C++ implementation - having in mind that you're going to use a DSP in future, so functions should use some declaratives like I don't know, #ifdef DSP_ACCL by your own - and then break the code to parts which can be accelerated using a DSP and implement DSP compatible parts. If you're using TI DSPs, you can first port a function to DSP and measure the performance, and re-implement it with assembly if needed. You may need to take a look at http://www.ti.com/lit/wp/spry175/spry175.pdf first, then you can implement a better general purpose code with OpenCV.

Good luck.

Hello! I'd like to use the wrapper, but I could not find how I can download the new files. Thank you Camille
