profile conversion and library tests

After spending a few days loking into different PIL and ImageMagick-based libraries, I have finally settles on what seems to be the most user-friendly and awesome among them. Scikit-Image.
Having used Scikit-Learn briefly, I was aware of the popularity of the scikit-*family* libraries, but was unaware of this particular member.

After 3 days (rather nights) , I have figured out the data format and conversion techniques, and have pushed a sample script to the repo, which converts a test tif from RGB to Gray and then performs the following operations on the same :
  1. Canny Edge Detector
  2. Sobel Operator
Here is how the output looks:
However, I still need to work on the image viewer. Presently, I am waiting on Travis. It is doing something (not sure what or why) as I write this blog.

The new To Do list:
  1. Try increasing size of the files.
  2. Try out the output on Tesseract.
  3. Optimise the method for reading the file. 
  4. Optimise the overall code.
  5. Learn more about using the Notebooks. 


But it's time to hit the bed now,  so the new experiments will have to wait for another night. So Long.
