Evaluating OpenCV’s new RANSACs
Spoiler: They’re much better now! OpenCV RANSAC is dead. Long live the OpenCV USAC! Last year a group of researchers including myself from UBC, Google, CTU in Prague and EPFL published a paper “Image Matching across Wide Baselines: From Paper to Practice“, which, among other messages, has shown that OpenCV RANSAC for fundamental matrix estimation […]
How to run YOLOv4 model inference using OpenVINO and OpenCV on ARM
Deep Learning Inference Engine backend from the Intel OpenVINO toolkit is one of the supported OpenCV DNN backends. It was mentioned in the previous post that ARM CPUs support has been recently added to Inference Engine via the dedicated ARM CPU plugin. Let’s review how OpenCV DNN module can leverage Inference Engine and this plugin […]

OpenCV 4.5.2 and 3.4.14 have been released
Deep learning inference in OpenVINO on ARM
We are pleased to announce that Deep Learning Inference Engine backend in the OpenCV DNN module can run inference on ARM CPUs nowadays. Previously Inference Engine supported Intel hardware only: CPUs, iGPUs, FPGAs and VPUs. Recently a new ARM CPU plugin has been published on the GitHub. This plugin allows Inference Engine to run DL […]

OpenCV-Python Is Now An Official OpenCV Project
Good news, everyone! OpenCV.org is pleased to announce that the popular and long-running package OpenCV-Python is now an official OpenCV project. What is OpenCV-Python? It’s a package that contains pre-built OpenCV with dependencies and Python bindings, so there’s no need to install OpenCV separately. Thanks so much to package maintainer Olli-Pekka Heinisuo (@skvark), who developed […]
