Jacqui and I finished writing the code for three color features. The opponent histogram, the rghistogram, and the transformed color distribution. The first color feature, the opponent histogram, has been tested. It works fairly well, however, we need to continue to adjust some of the parameters in order to get more accurate results.
Jacqui and I have also been working on getting ready for the Student Research Symposium (SRS). We went to a workshop to get tips on writing an extended abstract. We then worked on a draft for the extended abstract. Each of us worked on separate sections within the abstract. I worked on the introduction and methods sections and Jacqui worked on the results and discussion and conclusion sections. Once we finished the draft both Yang and Dr. Zheng reviewed it and suggested changes. We finalized the document and turned that in.
The SRS was held yesterday, Friday April 13, 2012. Jacqui and I presented our poster, which turned out very well. We had many viewers. Many also seemed intrigued with the research we were doing. Some official reviewers came by to view our presentation. The head of the SRS said we would be receiving the critiques from these reviewers sometime after the symposium.
We are headed to Las Vegas, Nevada tomorrow. We are attending a conference. Dr. Zheng said our main presentation will be held on Monday around 10am. Jacqui and I will also be attending some of the seminars there.
