Kernelgram 2.0

Kernelgram 2.0 is an image processing application that provides various filters and features for image manipulation. It is built using OpenCV and Python. It also uses a pretrained YOLOv3 model for image detection (COCO).

Project Structure

The project has the following structure:

• app.py: The main application file.
• filters2.py: Contains the updated image filter functions.
• haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml: Haar cascade file for face detection.
• models: Directory containing pre-trained models.
  • yolov3.cfg: YOLOv3 configuration file.
  • yolov3.txt: Text file containing class names for YOLOv3.
  • yolov3.weights: Pre-trained weights for YOLOv3.
• requirements.txt: List of Python dependencies for the project.

Usage

To use Kernelgram 2.0, follow these steps:

1. Install the required dependencies by running pip3 install -r requirements.txt.
2. Download the zipped models folder from here.
3. Unzip and add it to the project directory.
4. Run the app.py script to launch the application.
5. Have fun!

Notes

• This app was updated for python 3.11.
