ShiVa
  ^_^

The Shape Visualizer is intented to be an exploratory/educational tool
making it quick and easy to see how various mathematical methods
perform in analysing and selecting the various patterns present on an
image.

The main purpose is twofold:

- provide basic implementation for the most famous scale-based
  analysis methods

- provide a nice, intuitive GUI to make it easy to grasp the basic
  effects and uses of those analysis methods


WARNING: for now ShiVaSmiles is in beta:

- it only has two sets of filter+measure implementated:
   * Fourier filtering with autocorrelation
   * Morphological opening with granulometry

- the GUI is limited to basic interaction and visualisation and still
  lacks a couple of important functionality (bigger graphs)

- some important functionality are still missing like removing
  patterns below (for now it's only "above") a certain scale and
  saving the filtered images and data

- it has only been compiled and quickly tested on Ubuntu-12.04.

Feel free to try it, and don't hesitate to send your remarks and
contributions via the sourceforge project page at :
