8th Week (July 15 - July 21)

1. Work on fixing lazysnapping
Lazy Snapping is working now however it needs some improvement in terms of speed and performance.
2. Started working on integration with Hugin.
a)merged from trunk to branch.
b)Changed build system. Now the maskeditor core and segmentation routines are built as libraries which can be used by either the standalone gui or hugin.
c)Started modifying PreviewFrame to incorporate MaskEdEditWnd

Not done yet:
=============
1. Determine which image is being edited

9th Week (July 22 - July 28)
1. Undo/Redo feature
2. Load/Store mask

4. Incorporate pre-segmentation step in lazy snapping.

10th Week (July 29 - Aug 4)
1. Further work on Load/Store mask
2. Implement basic mechanism for doing remapping
3. Improve usability. Determine which image is being edited, polygon editing
4. Further work on integration
5. Lazy snapping polygon boundary editing.


11th Week (Aug 5 - Aug 11) [Aug 11 is suggested pencils down]
1. Further work on remapping
2. Usability: work on zooming
3. Integration

12th Week (Aug 12 - Aug 18) [Aug 18th is final day for uploading code]
1. Usability
2. Integration

Status Report (July 8 - July 14)

7th week
1. Used crop information to determine overlapped rectangular region
2. Preview window now allows (de)selecting images.
however editing option isn't updated yet.
3. Fixed clustering problem in LazySnapping. However there're still some other bugs.

Plan for next 3 weeks:
================
8th Week (July 15 - July 21)
1. Determine which image is being edited
2. Start working on integration with Hugin. In particular allow switching between preview mode and mask editing mode
3. Work on fixing lazysnapping

9th Week (July 22 - July 28)
1. Undo/Redo feature
2. Load/Store mask
3. Further work on integration (I'll determine the deliverables on 8th week)
4. Further work on lazysnapping. If its working properly then incorporate pre-segmentation step.

10th Week (July 29 - Aug 4)
1. Implement basic mechanism for doing remapping
2. Improve usability
3. Further work on integration

Status Report (July 1 - July 7)

6th week (July 1 - July 7)
1. Implemented LazySnapping without watershed filtering. The implementation doesn't quite work yet.
At the moment I'm using a naive implementation of K-means. But I'm thinking of using the implementation provided at http://www.cs.umd.edu/~mount/Projects/KMeans/ (release under GPL)
2. add option for choosing segmentation technique
Initially basic polygon editing is chosen. This can be changed from Edit->Preferences. The segmentation technique can be changed anytime. However the previous masks (if any) are discarded. Later on I'll provide option for reusing previous mask.

Not done yet
--------------
1. Working implementation of LazySnapping.
2. Did not make use of watershed filtering. I'm thinking of just using watershed.cxx code which is part of VIGRA examples. The only thing I'll need to do is build a graph from the output of the watershed algorithm.


Plan for second phase:
---------------------------
For the second phase I'm planning to give high priority to integration and usability (eg. fast response, easily going back and forth between different images that are edited) and slightly lower priority to fine-tuning, and specialized mask creation. Plan for the next three weeks is as follows -


7th week (July 8 - July 14) Midterm evaluation week
1. Apply segmentation on the overlapped region
2. work on preview window (eg. show images that are selected and not selected)
This is basically giving a preview of loaded images. I'll keep it very simple for now.
3. Select multiple images for display
4. Work on LazySnapping. I'll mainly be focusing on the part without watershed filtering.
5. Determine which image is being edited

8th Week (July 15 - July 21)

2. Start working on integration with Hugin
3. Start working on fine-tuning mask in polygon mode
4. Do further improvement of lazysnapping.

9th Week (July 22 - July 28)
1. Undo/Redo feature
2. Load/Store mask
3. Further work on integration (I'll determine the deliverables on 8th week)

Status Report (June 24- June 30)

1. Partially ported the current implementation

Not done:
1. Use VIGRA watershed filtering from the LazySnapping class

Next 3 weeks
-------------
6th week (July 1 - July 7)
1. Use VIGRA watershed filtering from the LazySnapping class
2. Further work on interactive image segmentation
3. add option for choosing segmentation technique

7th week (July 8 - July 14) Midterm evaluation week
1. Apply segmentation on the overlapped region
2. work on preview window (eg. show images that are selected and not selected)
3. Select multiple images for display

8th Week (July 15 - July 21)
1. determine which image is being edited
2. Start working on integration with Hugin
3. Fine-tuning mask in polygon mode
