ABSTRACT

Extended Abstract (WORD/PDF)

Use of Python Scripts to Compare and Contrast Photo Images

In python there is an ability to write python scripts for a variety of projects. For this project the python script was written to perform an image comparison. This was done with various libraries that are included in the python language. These libraries include Image, OpenCV, and etc. Thus, when importing these the program would ask the user for two images and the size for the images the program would display the pixel values for the images as well as display an image were if the pixels of the two images matched the image would be "black out" for that section. The team later found out that to compare the images the team needed to resize the two images as well as that to have the program run on different computer the necessary libraries needed to be on the new computer. Therefore, in the future the team decided that the program would need to be more robust and efficient.

Keywords: Python, Image Comparison

The Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) was established to provide resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways. Science gateways are online interfaces that give researchers, educators, and students easy access to specialized, shared resources that are specific to a science or engineering discipline. For example, they may connect to or between instruments (such as telescopes or sensors), data collections, specialized software, or high-performance computing.

WHO WE ARE

The goal of CERSER is to develop and implement innovative and relevant education and research collaborations focused on ice sheet, coastal, ocean, and marine research. CERSER is also part of the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) which provides coordinating activities across the National Science Foundation, eventually providing services more broadly to projects funded by other agencies. Sharing expertise about technologies and strategies would allow developers to concentrate on the novel, the challenging, and the cutting-edge development needed by their specific user communities.
