This task tracks the collaboration with prof. Kai Barthel and team from HTW Berlin around "Wikimedia Image Visualizations".
The idea is to generate a large-scale visualization of (a subset of) Commons Images, using techniques from multimedia information retrieval and computer vision.
We are working with a group of 6 undergrad students and a PhD student.
Initial rough steps are:
- Identify an initial set of image categories to work on.
- Download images on the HTW Berlin Machines
- Work on Viz prototype
