Thesis Progress
I made a lot of progress on implementing the instance model. I finished or nearly finished interest point selection, model patch generation, consolidation, color histogram creation, and color correlation algorithms. Also, I also made more progress on chapter 2 of the thesis report.
Because the desktop computer was too old and not powerful enough, I switched to the Mac, and things are running much better now. Matlab on the Mac benchmarks at four times the performance of the old Windows machine.
This week, I plan to finish implementation of the instance model, hopefully finish chapter two, and begin planning and paperwork for the defense.
