A python implemenation of the research paper [1]

Automated Setup

If you have bash, then you can just run the script install.sh to setup the environment and then run run.sh for running the algorithm. If automated run is failing for you, then go with manual setup

# giving permissions for execution
chmod +x install.sh
chmod +x run.sh

./install.sh             # setups the environment
./run.sh [image_path]    # runs the algorithm on given image

Manual Setup

To Run:

Install required packages

pip install -r requirements.txt

Also go to scipy-lic

cd scipy-lic/
python setup.py install
# and
cd vecplot/
python setup.py install

To run an example

cd src/
python final.py <IMAGE_PATH>

Open jupyter notebook only from src if needs to view a notebook.

Slightly detailed example in src/main.ipynb
