GoogleTest
Google Testing and Mocking Framework
GoogleTest is Google's C++ mocking and test framework. It's used by many internal projects at Google, as well as a number of notable projects such as The Chromium projects, the OpenCV computer vision library, and the LLVM compiler. This GoogleTest project is actually a union of what used to be two separate projects: the old GoogleTest and GoogleMock, an extension of GoogleTest for writing and using C++ mock classes. Since they were so closely related, they were merged to create an even better GoogleTest. GoogleTest features an xUnit test framework, a rich set of assertions, user-defined assertions, death tests, among many others. It's been used on a variety of platforms, including Cygwin, Symbian, MinGW and PlatformIO. -

Butteraugli
Estimates the psychovisual difference between two images
butteraugli is a perceptual similarity metric designed to estimate how noticeable differences between two images will be to the human eye. Instead of simple pixel math, it models aspects of human vision—color sensitivity, spatial masking, and contrast perception—to highlight differences that viewers actually see. The core tool outputs a single “distance” score along with per-pixel or per-region maps that show where artifacts are most objectionable. These maps make it practical to tune compressor settings and confirm whether bitrate reductions are visually acceptable. The metric has become a common yardstick for objective image quality when comparing codecs or encoder tweaks that target web or mobile delivery. Because it is deterministic and fast, it can be used in automated pipelines to gate releases on visual quality, not just file size. -

OpenNN - Open Neural Networks Library
Machine learning algorithms for advanced analytics
OpenNN is a software library written in C++ for advanced analytics. It implements neural networks, the most successful machine learning method. Some typical applications of OpenNN are business intelligence (customer segmentation, churn prevention…), health care (early diagnosis, microarray analysis…) and engineering (performance optimization, predictive maitenance…). OpenNN does not deal with computer vision or natural language processing. The main advantage of OpenNN is its high performance. This library outstands in terms of execution speed and memory allocation. It is constantly optimized and parallelized in order to maximize its efficiency. The documentation is composed by tutorials and examples to offer a complete overview about the library. OpenNN is developed by Artelnics, a company specialized in artificial intelligence. -

Scene is a computer vision framework that performs background subtraction and object tracking, using two traditional algorithms and three more recent algorithms based on neural networks and fuzzy classification rules. For each detected object, Scene sends TUIO messages to one or several client applications. The present release features GPU accelerated versions of all the background subtraction methods and morphological post processing of the object blobs with dilation and erosion filters, implemented in OpenCL. The framework was mainly designed as a toolkit for the rapid development of interactive art projects that explore dynamics of complex environments.

Fish4Knowledge Project
Analysis of undersea fish videos
The Fish4knowledge project investigated: information abstraction and storage methods for analyzing undersea video data (from 10E+15 pixels to 10E+12 units of information), machine and human vocabularies for detecting & describing fish, flexible process architectures to process the data and scientific queries and effective specialised user query interfaces. A combination of computer vision, database storage, workflow and human computer interaction methods were used to achieve this. The project used live video feeds from 10 underwater cameras as a testbed for investigating more generally applicable methods for capture, storage, analysis and querying of multiple video streams. We collated a public database from 3 years containing video summaries of the observed fish and associated descriptors. Expert web-based interfaces were developed for use by marine researchers, allowing unprecedented access to live and previously stored videos, or previously extracted information. -
