Accord.NET Extensions is an extension framework for Accord.NET and AForge.NET. The framework sets focus on .NET native array as primary imaging object and offers computer-vision algorithms mostly build as extensions. The libraries can be grouped as following:

Image processing

Accord.Extensions.Imaging.Algorithms package
Implements image processing algorithms as .NET array extensions including the Accord.NET algorithms.

        </b>
        <br />
        Implements template matching algorithm (~20x faster than conventional sliding window approach).
