Not-yet-working web service to train a classification algorithm to identify land types and perform classification on arbitrary images... esp. eventually map tiles. Will act as a map tile proxy which generates classified land cover imagery. Please help make this happen.

##Clashifier## Clashifier is open source software, and is part of open source research by the Public Laboratory for Open Technology and Science. To use Clashifier, you can: * Train it with a "classname" and a set of corresponding color bands (red, green, blue, near-infrared) * Find the nearest classname to a set of color bands (and their relative cartesian distance) * (soon) point it at the URL of an image to get back an image color-coded by classname * (soon) "draw" on an image in-browser with a colored "pen" to classify pixels from that image and train a model We hope this will be useful for: * automatically classifying aerial imagery by land use or type * detecting and quantifying geographic events like oil spills or chemical seeps * identifying different plant species, especially in a monoculture as found in wetlands * (maybe?) identifying crop diseases This project is in early-stage development and we really need all the help we can get! Get in touch on the Public Laboratory mailing list (sign up at publiclaboratory.org/user/register to join) and pitch in! ######################## Depends on: ######################## * RMagick * rmagick gems, paperclip ######################## To do: ######################## * start with a few sample images and set up Fred to grab pixel colors based on clicks (naming a class in an input field) * allow submission of batches of pixels and start collecting sets of pixels based on dragging -- "painting" * try coloring what you've "painted" * Set up image uploading with Paperclip * histogram an image by classname * generate a new image colored by classname, with an HTML key * create an image proxy which colors by classname Later on: * Consider normalized RGB: R/(R+G+B) to reduce lighting effects? * Other classification techniques: SVM, KNN, Neural network ######################## Helpful reading ######################## "Naive Bayes Classification in Ruby using Hadoop and HBase" * http://findingscience.com/ankusa/hbase/hadoop/ruby/2010/12/02/naive-bayes-classification-in-ruby-using-hadoop-and-hbase.html "Bayesian marker extraction for color watershed in segmenting microscopic images" * Olivier Lezoray, Hubert Cardot "Classifier gem: Classifier is a general module to allow Bayesian and other types of classifications." * https://github.com/cardmagic/classifier "Progress in pattern recognition, image analysis and applications" * Luis Rueda, Domingo Mery, Josef Kittler * http://books.google.com/books?id=JMQk1HJmhv0C&pg=PA813&lpg=PA813&dq=naive+bayes+color+classification+rgb&source=bl&ots=MJnQgy9Wwf&sig=Z_99zvjO-LsKBbp9v3D29dJ039o&hl=en&ei=TVitTsPmJ-Ld0QGMp-GuDw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CCEQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=naive%20bayes%20color%20classification%20rgb&f=false "Ways to improve Image Pixel Classification" * Stack Overflow * http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6613825/ways-to-improve-image-pixel-classification
