Jason is interested in building a custom object detector using the HOG + Linear SVM framework for his final year project. Today’s blog post is inspired from an email I received from Jason, a student at the University of Rochester.
Although every effort is made to rectify bugs as they are recognised, the author cannot guarantee that these packages are without error, and assumes no responsibility for their use, or for interpretations based on their use.Click here to download the source code to this post.For commercial users the unregistered download version can be used for evaluation purposes only, and must be registered for continued commercial use after a reasonable evaluation period that must not exceed two months.However, academic users who wish to remove the plot window restrictions must also purchase registration. * ACADEMIC USE: GEOrient packages can be used freely in their unregistered form by academics (teachers and students) for teaching and non-commercial research purposes, but please acknowledge the author in any publication or figure arising from its use.(This number can be then be changed up to 99 from within the Preferences dialog accessed from the View… menu).
Registration (paid) removes both these restrictions and initially sets the default maximum number of plots at 10.
The unregistered form of the program has all features enabled except that the maximum number of plot windows that can be opened simultaneously is restricted to 3, and the opening registration notice will continue to be displayed on startup. GEOrient opens initially in its unregistered form, displaying an unregistered notice and inviting registration.
(It usually will install and run under Windows emulations, although Help links within each application will not work).
The software is specific to Microsoft Windows. As part of Microsoft's security measures you now have to Unblock the. Download the compiled Help file for specific details.Unregistered users are restricted to 3 simultaneously open plots. Registered users can display up to 99 simultaneous plots (but more than 20 becomes unwieldy). The limit on the number of data is system memory and resources. Plots can be linked to MapInfo mapper windows and data selected in one will be selected in the other.Data can be easily added with the mouse, or can be edited within, and between, plots using normal Cut/Copy/Paste mouse actions.Īnnotated points using any symbol or colour can be overlain on the basic plot.ĭata can be rotated in various ways, and linked data (such as sedimentary flow directions on bedding planes) can be rotated to the horizontal by rotating the associated bedding planes and fold hinges. Other girdles and small circles can be manually fitted to the data using the mouse to drag girdles into position. Best-fit great circles, beta axes, and vector mean and variance statistics are automatically calculated.Multiple plot windows can be opened simultaneously and can be arranged on a page prior to printing. Linked fault plane and slip data can be plotted as either slip arrow plots or as kinematic axes plots.ĭata from multiple files can be merged as a single dataset, or can be overlaid as separate plots using different symbols.
Corrections can be applied to frequency rose diagrams for linear data sampling bias. Length-Azimuth plots, Wind Energy plots, Mean Length/sector and Variance/sector plots). The primary plot data can include appended numeric or non-numeric information (such as length, weighting factors, mean wind data, vein widths, assay values, etc) to allow either classification of the data within the plots, or for various rose diagram options (e.g. Using this system orientation data from tables displayed in a map in a GIS map databases (such as ArcGis, QGIS, or MapInfo) can be copied and pasted easily into GEOrient.ĭata can be be plotted as: point symbols great circles beta intersections (not recommended) contours of gridded point density intersection lineation plots or as rose diagrams. The prime purpose is for the plotting of geological structural data but the plots may be applied to a variety of spatial/orientation data, including wind data.ĭata can be copied and pasted, for example, from external spreadsheets and databases.
Data input formats are unconstrained, and can be in a range of orientation conventions. Data is entered either by copying from other applications and pasting from the clipboard, or by opening ASCII text files.
