Mimas Announcement Archive
Mimas-1.4
Mimas-1.4 ("Lamb with peppermint sauce, marmite and other sins.") was released on Nov 21th 2005.
Release Notes
- RPM-files for Mandrake 10.2 are provided.
- Don't run the mesa example on NVidia cards, as it crashes NVidia's Xorg-servers at the moment :(
Change log
- Support for firewire digital cameras (accessed using libdc1394)
- shift and rotation estimation using the fourier transform
Mimas-1.3
Mimas-1.3 was released on Jul 29th 2005.
Release Notes
- No rpm-files are provided this time.
- "make install" now will install documentation and the compiled examples under /usr/share/doc/mimas-devel-1.3/
Change log
Notable changes include:
- Convolution for n-dimensional arrays and images and faster LSI-filters have been implemented.
- Operators for images have been added (f.e. "image3=(image1-image2)*3.0").
- 2D-image-iterators have been implemented.
- Support for mesa offscreen- and onscreen-rendering has been added.
- Object-recognition using moments was implemented.
Mimas-1.2
Mimas 1.2 ("If a job can be done by a machine, it is below human dignity.") released on Feb 28th 2005.
Release Notes
- The lib*.so-files have been moved to the rpm-devel-package. This is a bug-fix, which also resolved the problem with superfluous dependencies. The rpm-packages are for Mandrake 10.0 only.
Change Log
- type-traits for pixel-conversion
- new grabber class (video4linux)
- introduced boost uBLAS
- added wrappers for xml-library Xalan-C
- iterative pose-estimation for 3D-correspondences
Mimas-1.1
Mimas 1.1 released on Aug 2nd 2004.
Release Notes
- new automated build system based around autoconf/automake
- RPMS for Linux distributions
Change Log
- new classes
- new vectorfield class
- new SVD based tracker
- new Hebbian learning class
- new dynamic display tool class
- fixed
- fixed Fourier class for fftw2
- streamlining of correlation tracker
- fixed findTux
- fixed documentation system
Mimas-1.0
Mimas 1.0 ("Durians, haggis, easter eggs and everything tasty") released on Apr 8th 2004.
Mimas started life in 1999 as a C++ computer vision library intended to be incorporated into user applications. Version 1.0 has been a long time coming, but we've now decided that enough is enough and hence we are releasing it publicly and in source code form! It's downloadable from: http://www.shu.ac.uk/mmvl/research/mimas/download/stable/1.0/ The file that you want is: mimas-1.0.tar.bz2
