Human Hair Detection

Java based GUI application for extraction of human hair region from input image of human face using OpenCV.

Prerequisities

• Oracle Java v8.0 (64bit)
• JavaFX
• Netbeans >= v8.0
• OpenCV 3.1.0 native installation

Getting Started

Install Java with NetBeans

• Visit oracle and download JDK 8 with Netbeans for your platform. JDK 8 comes bundled with JavaFX, so you don't have to install JDK manually.

Install OpenCV

• Visit openCV and download the source code.
• Extract the contents of ZIP in a directory and follow the instructions in the link below to compile OpenCV natively. http://opencv-java-tutorials.readthedocs.io/en/latest/01-installing-opencv-for-java.html

Setting up the project in Net Beans

• Launch NetBeans

• Clone this project in your local machine

HTTPS

git clone https://github.com/sujit25/Human-hair-detection.git

SSH

git clone git@github.com:sujit25/Human-hair-detection.git

• Add reference to opencv-310.jar available from binaries generated during compilation.

• Go to Hair Detection Netbeans Project > Properties > Run > VM Options : add

-Djava.library.path=/path/to/lib/containing/opencv_libraries

for e.g. on my machine:
