Hi,
I'm a student from Chennai, India and my project is going to be related to
performing image processing on the images on commons.wikimedia to automate
categorization. DrTrigon had made the script catimages.py a few years ago
which was made in the old pywikipedia-bot framework. I'll be working
towards updating the script to the pywikibot-core framework, updating it's
dependencies, and using newer techniques when possible.
catimages.py is a script that analyzes an image using various computer
vision algorithms and allots categories to the image on commons. For
example, consider algorithms that detect faces, barcodes, etc. The script
uses these to categorize images to Category:Unidentified People,
Category:Barcode, and so on.
If you have any suggestions and categorizations you think might be useful
to you, drop in at #gsoc-catimages on freenode or my talk page[0]. You can
find out more about me on User:AbdealiJK[1] and about the project
at T129611[2].
Regards
