SCENIC BEAUTY ESTIMATION USING LINEAR DISCRIMINANT ANALYSIS GUI


The Graphical User Interface for the Scenic Beauty Estimation Project is contained in this directory.  This gui is a start to what could become a fully functional gui for the entire project.  Due to the limitations of time on this project, the gui has very limited capabilities.  It is presently set up to run on a fixed image and defined in its code.  This was done due to problems with the code at the time the gui was finished.  It allows a person to execute the Priciple Components Analysis (PCA) portion of the Scenic Beatuy Estimation code on a test image.  The output of the analysis will be stored in a file called output.dat.  

For operating this gui, it should be placed a working directory along with the executable files for the Scenic Beauty Estimation code.

The command line give is as follows:

analyze_image.exe -param ../../../eval/exp_01/params/param_he_lsbe_639_test.dat -output output.dat -files ../../../eval/exp_01/files/file_image.list


For future work, the gui could easily be made to allow the user to select an image from the list, view, define an output file, select a mode for operation (Testing, Training, PCA, and LDA), execute the program, and display the output.
