Hi Peter,

regarding detectors evaluation, one typical way to evaluate them in research is using VLBenchmarks, a MATLAB framework for testing image feature detectors and descriptors which some parts are based on the original code of K. Mikolajczyk and others just uses only Vlfeat. However, OpenCV has a slightly implementation in C++ based on that mentioned original code [1] [2]. In my opinion, if you are using this OpenCV implementation then the code you want to release should go in the existent vision_opencv which has some implemented OpenCV apps.

Hi,

I want to publish a package on the ros website.
It is about evaluation detectors in Computer Vision.

Usually, the detector spits out, if and where it found a desired object.
You can read in  XML files, which have saved the ground truth and says where the object really is located.
 

The package pops up a window where you will see the rectangle of the ground truth and the rectangle of the detector. So you can see, if those rectangles are overlapping, the detector is right and saves the percentage in
file. This list will be read in a script, which shows up a ROC curve of your database.

​ Automatic evaluation of (changes to) vision algorithms would be very useful. I'm very interested to see your package.​

Please, help me to put this package on the ros webpage and I will write a tutorial for it.

​I have no experience publishing packages ​on the ROS website. However, the code is normally hosted elsewhere, like github. Would it be possible for you to publish the package publicly first (for example on github) and give us all the possibility to test it out? Undoubtedly that's a good first step towards getting it published on the ROS website too.

Kind regards,

Maarten
