23.7 BioFilter
23.7.1 Training
“BioFilter\Train\Signature (t1.txt)” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter\Train\Signature (t1.txt)” menu item to open one of two training files, t1.txt, so that you can see this training file is ready.
“BioFilter\Train\Edit match.txt” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter\Train\Edit match.txt” menu item to open one of two training files, match.txt, so that you can see this training file is ready.
“BioFilter\Train\Check match.txt” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter\Train\Check match.txt” menu item to check match.txt. The matching pairs in match.txt will be displayed in the left and right picture box so that you can see whether an unintended pair is in the file match.txt.
“BioFilter\Train\Stop Checking” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter\Train\Stop Checking” menu item to stop checking match.txt.
“BioFilter\Train\Training” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter\Train\Training” menu item to train the BioFilter. Training uses the data collected in advance to teach the BioFilter how to match. Training requires two files, a1.txt and match.txt:
-
t1.txt is the signature file, which contains many signatures. Each image is converted into a signature. A signature represents features of an image in a Feature Space.
-
Match.txt is a list of matching pairs. This file will teach the ImageFinder who will match with whom.
23.7.2 Matching
“BioFilter/Matching/1:1 (Left vs Right)” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter/Matching/1:1 (Left vs Right)” menu item to make a 1:1 Matching. 1:1 Matching compares the key with the image displayed in the right picture box. The “Key” button selects the key image. The right image can be selected by the “F”, “>”, “<” buttons.
“BioFilter/Matching/1:N (key vs a1.txt)” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter/Matching/1:N (key vs a1.txt)” menu item to make a 1:N Matching. 1:N Matching compares the key with the images in a1.txt. The “Key” button selects the key image. 1:N Matching requires the images in the search source being converted into signatures in advance and saved in a1.txt.
To make a 1:N Matching:
-
Click the “Key” button, and select an image;
-
Click “BioFilter/Matching/1:N (key vs a1.txt)”.
The results are in file, b1.txt, which will be opened at the end of the computation.
“BioFilter/Matching/N:N Match (a1.txt vs a1.txt)” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter/Matching/N:N Match (a1.txt vs a1.txt)” menu item to make an N:N Matching. N: N Matching compares each image, in a1.txt, with every image in a1.txt. N:N Matching requires the images in the search source being converted into signatures in advance and saved in a1.txt. The results are in file, b1.txt, which will be opened at the end of the computation.
“BioFilter/Matching/N:M2 Match (a1.txt vs a2.txt)” Menu Item
Use the “BioFilter/Matching/N:M2 Match (a1.txt vs a2.txt)” menu item to make a N:M Matching. N: M Matching compares each image, in a1.txt, with every image in a2.txt. N:M Matching requires the images in the search source being converted into signatures in advance and saved in a1.txt and a2.txt, respectively. The results are in file, b1.txt, which will be opened at the end of the computation.
“BioFilter/Matching/N:M3 Match (a1.txt vs a3.txt)” Menu Item
Similar to the “BioFilter/Matching/N:M2 Match (a1.txt vs a2.txt)” Menu Item, except it matches a1.txt against a3.txt.
“BioFilter/Matching/N:M4 Match (a1.txt vs a4.txt)” Menu Item
Similar to the “BioFilter/Matching/N:M2 Match (a1.txt vs a2.txt)” Menu Item, except it matches a1.txt against a4.txt.
