Next meetup talks

[xd009642]

As planned there will be another set of computer vision talks for rust-cv in November. This issue is to track what talks will occur then and any interested speakers. Initially, we'll limit it to approximately 3 talks like last time. If any potential speakers could post a comment with your talk title, approximate length and a brief description as well as any limits on availability we can begin to populate the list. This is also a reoccurring event so if your talk doesn't end up happening in November feel free to create an issue for it and we can refer to those issues in the next talk issue!

Date:
November 2nd. TBD
Time:
17:00-19:00 UTC (tentative)

Title	Person	Description	Expected duration
Braid: low-latency multi-camera tracking with Rust	@astraw	An overview of Braid and how and why we use it for studying insect behavior.	20-30 mins
Image deformation with control points	Matthieu Pizenberg	Presentation of a Rust implementation of the paper "Image Deformation Using Moving Least Squares" (Schaefer 2006)	15-20 mins
TBD	TBD	TBD	TBD

We had discussed the next meetup to be be 2 November. I would propose again 17:00-19:00 UTC but note the end summertime for many of us. http://timesched.pocoo.org/?date=2021-11-02&tz=utc!,de:berlin,gb:london,us:new-york-city:ny,us:austin:tx,us:seattle:wa&range=1020,1140

Title: Braid: low-latency multi-camera tracking with Rust
Person: myself (Andrew Straw)
Description: An overview of Braid and how and why we use it for studying insect behavior.
Expected duration: 20-30 minutes

@astraw I added braid, if you also have an expected talk length I think that would be helpful for scheduling (I forgot to add to table initially 😅 )

Due to availability of potential speakers and discussion on discord we may postpone this to December.

I could talk about some algorithm I ported to rust recently. It's more on the graphics side than computer vision but it has been pretty useful for a project of ours. Here is the repo: https://github.com/mpizenberg/rust_mls. It's about image deformation based on control points.

Title: Image deformation with control points
Person: Matthieu Pizenberg
Description: Presentation of a Rust implementation of the paper "Image Deformation Using Moving Least Squares" (Schaefer 2006)
Expected duration: 15-20 minutes
