Dreaming of Names

With C++ we can reason about types and constant values at compile time. This allows us to create marvelous generic things like the standard library. Hypothetically, what if we could reason about names in similar ways?

A short (and practical) introduction to OpenCV

OpenCV is one of the most well known and widely deployed image processing library out there. With its > 500 functions including state-of-the-art algorithms and its BSD-like license OpenCV is an ideal toolset for (commercial) computer vision applications. Since its constantly-changing nature may be intimidating to the clueless, this talk will give a short introduction to OpenCV modules as well as some practical examples.
