Greetings!
Thank you for your interest in the iLab C++ Neuromorphic Vision toolkit and other source code packages available on this web site. We typically grant access to anybody who requests it, but you will need to follow the instructions below to gain access to the password-protected source and documentation pages.
What is available?
The iLab C++ Neuromorphic Vision Toolkit and most other iLab source code are maintained under SVN control. We kindly request that you register with this web site in order to gain access to the full source code and online documentation (see instructions below). Once you are registered, you will be able to download the full toolkit and keep it current through anonymous SVN download and update.
If you are planning significant extensions to the toolkit, please notify us, so that we can give you full developer access (which will allow you to post your additions and updates back to the master source tree).
Available packages include:
- saliency - our neuromorphic vision toolkit,
including our model of bottom-up, saliency-based visual attention and full online documentation. For general information on this project, check http://iLab.usc.edu/bu/
- HyperCol - our model of short-range interactions
among neurons in a single hypercolumn of primary visual cortex. See http://iLab.usc.edu/vi/ for more information
- beobots - working notes reagrding the development of our new neuromorphic robotics platform. See http://iLab.usc.edu/beobots/ for more information.
- biblio - source code and sample data for our bibliography management system. See http://iLab.usc.edu/bibTOhtml/ for more
information.
Note: For academic and research use only! Most of this code is protected under a pending U.S. patent (see http://iLab.usc.edu/publications/Koch_Itti01.html).
How to Gain Access
To access the iLab C++ Neuromorphic Vision Toolkit and other
iLab source code packages, please use the following procedure:
- Create an account on this iLab Forum. It is very easy and will take only a few seconds;
- Post a message to this group; describe why you are interested in the source code and what your plans are for future development, and include full contact information (including a valid email address -- your email will not be distributed to anybody and will be kept hidden on this forum if you decide so);
- If you wish to become a developer, and gain full SVN access to the master source tree as well as obtain an account on our Beowulf Cluster, please indicate so in your post;
- We will email you a username and password to use to access the password-protected pages. Thus, make sure that you have provided a valid email address when registering on the iLab Forum. If you do not receive an email from us almost immediately after you register on the forum (give it a few hours), please email Laurent Itti directly.
Thanks again for your interest. We look forward to your contributions!

Hello!
I am a graduate student just started working with Elie Bienenstock at Brown University. We would like to build a compositional model of object recognition. In its superficial architecture, the model is similar to a number of feedforward networks (Fukushima; Riesenhuber and Poggio). However, rather than just propagating activity in a feedforward way, the computations carried out in this network also involve a new type of variable: dynamical links between computing elements (neurons).
Right now I am making my first steps in trying to code a model of the HMAX type and searching the web for examples of similar codes. Google led me to your webpage, and I hope you would allow me to take a look at your code. I am "an honest beginner" in this type of work and I would just use your code as an example of how this kinds of models can be implemented.
Look forward to hearing from you,
Anastasia

Hi  ,
My name is Kirsten Cater and I am studying for my Computer Science PhD at Bristol University England. I am trying to recreate some of the work of Hector Yee who used your saliency-based visual attention predictor to create an efficient renderer for dynamic environments for his masters thesis at Cornell University.
Like Hector I am looking into using visual attention to create efficient renderers for computer graphics. I would like to use your saliency-based visual attention predictor to calculate where exactly people's attention would be attracted to in the computer generated images I have created and thus then use the saliency maps to re-render the images in a more efficient time.
My email is: cater@cs.bris.ac.uk. Thankyou for your time and I am looking forward to your response.
Kirsten

Hello,
my name is Simone Frintrop and I just started doing my Phd in Computer Science at Fraunhofer Institute for Autonomous Intelligent Systems in Bonn, Germany. I'm interested in attention based vision systems and have read some of your papers. It was very interesting to read them and to see the demos and movies at your homepage! Now I'd like to use your source code to start some tests and experiments on my own. I'd be glad, if you could give me access to the code.
My email-adress is simone.frintrop@ais.fraunhofer.de
Best greetings,
Simone

Hi Laurent,
as we have already been in touch before my registration, I guess I don't need to repeat who I am, why I want access and what my plans are. Still I wanted to accord to the rules and post a message.
Cheers!
Markus

Dear Laurent Itti
I feel an interest in the field of FOA for natural landscape scene. For determining the visual attention region of natural landscape scene, I would like to investigate some assessment tests using the eye-mark recoding system. So, I'd like to use your source code to compare the result from your algorithm and our result which is derived from the subjective test.
Thank you very much and I am looking forward to your response.

Hi,
I am a student from Institute of Psychology/Department of Computer Science at University of Copenhagen, Denmark, and I am currently working on a project on object recognition. I am especially interested in pandemonium-like computational models like Reisenhuber&Poggio's HMAX. I would very much like to get hold of the actual source code of the implementation, wich I understand is available here. The main reason for obtaining the code is to do some experiments on the model, and testing the performance of the model on unconstrained handwritten characters and words.
Thank you for your time - I hope to hear from you soon!!

Hi,
Source Code Access Requests:
I am Jacob Nguyen and I've just successfully defended my thesis for a Master in physics at George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia. All of my graduate courses were in theoretical physics. However, my thesis was in artificial target recognition or computational optics/computational neuroscience. I find ATR to be very exciting. I came across your toolkit and did download some of the source code - played with it on my spare time. I wrote an image processing software library and would like to test some of your code with a few of my own. If you permit me, I would like to have full CVS access to the master tree code - I would like to contribute to the game. Also full access to Beowulf Cluster would be appreciated.
name: Jacob C.V. Nguyen
email: jacob_cvn@yahoo.com
Sincerely,
Jacob

Hi!
Thanks Laurent for your help today. I would like to request the source codes for Hyper Column to extend it into visual motion detection domain. Full access to CVS and an account for Beowulf would be appreciated.
Cheers

Dear Mr. Itti,
My interests are the NCC (Neural Correlates of Consciousness)
Possibly your paradigm could be used in that investigation?
Since I've lost those passwords giving me access to the source code.I would like to know if it is possible to have this
access renewed.
Regards.

Hi all,
my name is Gabriel Gómez, I'm interesting in testing the saliency maps source code, because I'm trying to set the focus of attention of a khepera robot equipped with a camera in an office environment...
Thanks in advance!
Gabriel

Hi, I am a grad student in Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN. I work on robot vision systems, so a visual attension module is essential for my research. I'd like to get a copy of the source code and use it on a RWI ATRV-Jr mobile robot.

Hi,
My name is Chen Bin. from Japan. I have read your publications ago. Now I am a graduate student and researching on human-robot interaction, I want to use your bottom-up algorithm to detect the user's attention in 3D scene. I require to have right to access to the source code as a developer.

Hello,
I am currently working in Japan in a computer vision lab and I would love to check how your library can help to improve our face features detector.
Looks like you did a great job and I would be really happy to get the code and try it out.
Cheers
A. Fargaud

Hello,
I'm a Comp Sci grad student from the University of Delaware and I'm interested in focus-of-attention techniques for object recognition by autonomous robots. I don't need (or want) full CVS access, but I'd love to see/build/experiment with the src code.
Thanks,
Bill
