    Octave Forge

    Octave Forge

    A collection of packages providing extra functionality for GNU Octave

    Octave Forge is a central location for collaborative development of packages for GNU Octave. The Octave Forge packages expand Octave's core functionality by providing field specific features via Octave's package system. See https://octave.sourceforge.io/packages.php for a list of all available packages. GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable. Refer to https://www.octave.org for more information.

    Point Cloud Library

    Point Cloud Library

    A standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image processing

    The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. Whether you’ve just discovered PCL or you’re a long time veteran, this page contains links to a set of resources that will help consolidate your knowledge on PCL and 3D processing. An additional Wiki resource for developers is available too. To simplify both usage and development, we split PCL into a series of modular libraries. PCL is cross-platform, and has been successfully compiled and deployed on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Android. To simplify development, PCL is split into a series of smaller code libraries, that can be compiled separately. This modularity is important for distributing PCL on platforms with reduced computational or size constraints.

    WebP Codec

    WebP Codec

    Library to encode and decode images in WebP format

    libwebp is the reference codec library for Google’s WebP image format, providing both encoding and decoding along with command-line tools. It supplies cwebp to compress images into WebP and dwebp to decompress them back, making it easy to test quality/size trade-offs across presets and tuning parameters. The GitHub repository is a mirror; the canonical source of truth lives on Chromium’s git, and developer docs are hosted on WebP’s portal. The project underpins WebP support across browsers, imaging libraries, and many native apps thanks to its stable C API. Additional companion repos host test data and demos, including JavaScript builds and timing tests for various platforms. As a widely deployed codec, libwebp balances compression efficiency, speed, and integration simplicity across platforms.

    Resources for deep learning with satellite & aerial imagery

    This page lists resources for performing deep learning on satellite imagery. To a lesser extent classical Machine learning (e.g. random forests) are also discussed, as are classical image processing techniques. Note there is a huge volume of academic literature published on these topics, and this repository does not seek to index them all but rather list approachable resources with published code that will benefit both the research and developer communities. If you find this work useful please give it a star and consider sponsoring it. You can also follow me on Twitter and LinkedIn where I aim to post frequent updates on my new discoveries, and I have created a dedicated group on LinkedIn.

    Jimp

    Jimp

    An image processing library written entirely in JavaScript for Node

    An image processing library for Node written entirely in JavaScript, with zero native dependencies. If you're using this library with TypeScript the method of importing slightly differs from JavaScript. Instead of using require, you must import it with ES6 default import scheme. If you're using a web bundles (webpack, rollup, parcel) you can benefit from using the module build of jimp. Using the module build will allow your bundler to understand your code better and exclude things you aren't using. If you're using webpack you can set process.browser to true and your build of jimp will exclude certain parts, making it load faster. The static Jimp.read method takes the path to a file, URL, dimensions, a Jimp instance or a buffer and returns a Promise. In some cases, you need to pass additional parameters with an image's URL.

    sharp

    sharp

    High performance Node.js image processing module

    The typical use case for this high speed Node.js module is to convert large images in common formats to smaller, web-friendly JPEG, PNG, AVIF and WebP images of varying dimensions. Resizing an image is typically 4x-5x faster than using the quickest ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick settings due to its use of libvips. Colour spaces, embedded ICC profiles and alpha transparency channels are all handled correctly. Lanczos resampling ensures quality is not sacrificed for speed. As well as image resizing, operations such as rotation, extraction, compositing and gamma correction are available. Most modern macOS, Windows and Linux systems running Node.js v10+ do not require any additional install or runtime dependencies. This module supports reading JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, GIF and SVG images. Output images can be in JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and TIFF formats as well as uncompressed raw pixel data. Streams, Buffer objects and the filesystem can be used for input and output.

    Imagine

    Imagine

    PHP 5.3 object oriented image manipulation library

    Imagine is a OOP library for image manipulation built in PHP 5.3 using the latest best practices and thoughtful design that should allow for decoupled and unit-testable code. ImagineInterface (Imagine\Image\ImagineInterface) and its implementations is the main entry point into Imagine. You may think of it as a factory for Imagine\Image\ImageInterface as it is responsible for creating and opening instances of it and also for instantiating Imagine\Image\FontInterface object. The main piece of image processing functionality is concentrated in the ImageInterface implementations (one per driver - e.g. Imagick\Image). The main idea of Imagine is to avoid driver specific methods spill outside of this class and couple of other internal interfaces (Draw\DrawerInterface), so that the filters and any other image manipulations can operate on ImageInterface through its public API.

    tracking.js

    tracking.js

    A modern approach for Computer Vision on the web

    The tracking.js library brings different computer vision algorithms and techniques into the browser environment. By using modern HTML5 specifications, we enable you to do real-time color tracking, face detection and much more, all that with a lightweight core (~7 KB) and intuitive interface. To get started, download the project. This project includes all of the tracking.js examples, source code dependencies you'll need to get started. Unzip the project somewhere on your local drive. The package includes an initial version of the project you'll be working with. While you're working, you'll need a basic HTTP server to serve your pages. Test out the web server by loading the finished version of the project. The main goal of tracking.js is to provide those complex techniques in a simple and intuitive way on the web. We believe computer vision is important to improve people's life, bringing it to the web will make this future a reality a lot faster.

    ImageJ2x

    Java Image Processing Program

    ImageJ2x is medical image processing program inspired by NIH Image for the Macintosh. It can display, edit, analyze, process, save and print 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit images. There can be many image formats including TIFF, GIF, JPEG, BMP, DICOM, PNG, FITS and "raw" and ... Read and supports "stacks" (stack), a series of images that share a single window. The program supports simultaneous that number of windows (images), limited only by available memory. It is multithreaded, so that time-consuming operations such as reading lists in parallel with other operations are performed. It can calculate area and pixel value statistics of user-defined selection. It can measure distances and angles. It can record density histograms and line profiles. It supports standard image processing functions such as contrast manipulation, sharpening, smoothing, edge detection and filtering it through all kinds of geometric transformations such as Zoom in / out and rotation. Images can be enlarged up to 32
