Attached below three images that I have processed already. The last part is to differentiate between the good samples and bad one
this two pictures are good samples
while the third one is not.
any idea how can I do image processing to solve this task.
i'm using OpenCV with python
Try counting the number of endpoints. Look at:
How to find endpoints of lines in OpenCV?
How can I find endpoints of binary skeleton image in OpenCV?
Detect holes, ends and beginnings of a line using openCV?
Explanation:
As you can see, once you have binarized and skeletonized (by the way, you should have 1px width lines so check the way you obtain the skeleton) the image you can see that the number of endpoints in the wrong one is 4 rather than in the other which should be 2.
Anyway you should attach the original pictures also, because maybe there is a better way to tackle the problem.

I am trying to detect the pdf417 barcode (2D barcode) from an image using python.
I will be receiving images of IDs where there is a barcode in them but it might not always be straight. So I am looking for an effective way to DETECT the pdf417 barcode using Python.
I tried all of the available methods that I could find (that uses python)
e.g.,
pdf417decoder: requires the image to be cut exactly around the barcode just like in the image below:
pyzbar: only detects 1D barcodes
python-zxing and zxing: didn't detect any of the pdf417 barcodes that I tried (around 10 different IDs - different country)
Barcode-detection: this is a DL approach that uses YOLO-V3 to detect barcodes, but again (after trying it), it only detects 1D barcodes...
Is there a method that I missed?
Am I using a wrong approach towards this problem?
Possible solution that I am thinking of: using computer vision (some filters and transformations) to detect a box that has black and white dots... Something similar to this.
Thanks!
After various trials, I ended up using an approach of template matching by OpenCV.
You need to precisely choose your template image that will be the search reference of your algorithm. You need to feed it some grayscaled images.
Then, you need to choose the boxes that have a result higher than a certain threshold (for me 0.55). Then apply NMS (non max suppression) to filter out the noisy boxes.
But keep in mind that there are many edge cases to encounter. If someone is interested to see the complete solution, please let me know.
Forgive me but I'm new in OpenCV.
I would like to delete the common background in 3 images, where there is a landscape and a man.
I tried some subtraction codes but I can't solve the problem.
I would like output each image only with the man and without landscape
Are there in OpenCV Algorithms what do this do? (then without any manual operation so no markers or other)
I tried this python code CV - Extract differences between two images
but not works because in my case i don't have an image with only background (without man).
I thinks that good solution should to Compare all the images and save those "points" that are the same at least in an image.
In this way I can extrapolate a background (which we call "Result.jpg") and finally analyze each image and cut those portions that are also present in "Result.jpg".
You say it's a good idea? Do you have other simplest ideas?
Without semantic segmentation, you can't do that.
Because all you can compute is where two images differ, and this does not give you the silhouette of the person, but an overlapping of two silhouettes. You'll never know the exact outline.
Im trying to remove the differences between two frames and keep the non-chaning graphics. Would probably repeat the same process with more frames to get more accurate results. My idea is to simplify the frames removing things that won't need to simplify the rest of the process that will do after.
The different frames are coming from the same video so no need to deal with different sizes, orientation, etc. If the same graphic its in another frame but with a different orientation or scale, I would like to also remove it. For example:
Image 1
Image 2
Result (more or less, I suppose that will be uglier but containing a similar information)
One of the problems of this idea is that the source video, even if they are computer generated graphics, is compressed so its not that easy to identify if a change on the tonality of a pixel its actually a change or not.
Im ideally not looking at a pixel level and given the differences in saturation applied by the compression probably is not possible. Im looking for unchaged "objects" in the image. I want to extract the information layer shown on top of whats happening behind it.
During the last couple of days I have tried to achieve it in a Python script by using OpenCV with all kinds of combinations of absdiffs, subtracts, thresholds, equalizeHists, canny but so far haven't found the right implementation and would appreciate any guidance. How would you achieve it?

This will be extremely hard. You would need to employ proper CV and if you're not an expert in that field, you'll have really hard time.
How about this, forgetting about tooling and libs, you have two images, ie. two equally sized sequences of RGB pixels. Image A and Image B, and the output image R. Allocate output image R of the same size as A or B.
Run a single loop for every pixel, read pixel a and from A and pixel b from B. You get a 3-element (RGB) vector. Find distance between the two vectors, eg. magnitude of a vector (b-a), if this is less than some tolerance, write either a or b to the same offset into result image R. If not, write some default (background) color to R.
You can most likely do this with some HW accelerated way using OpenCV or some other library, but that's up to you to find a tool that does what you want.
Given two images - one a cropped (but not scaled) portion of the other, how can I find the crop parameters (i.e.: the x and y offsets and width/height)? The idea is to crop one image (screenshot) by hand, and then crop a lot more at the same points.
Ideally via imagemagick, but I am happy with any pseudo-code solution, or with Perl, Python, JavaScript (in order of preference)
I have thought of a brute-force approach (find the first pixel which is the same color, check the next, keep going until different, or move to the next). Before I go down this barabarous (and probably slow) route, I'd like to check for better ones.
Template matching can be used for the identification of smaller image within a larger image.
The following resource might be helpful. Please check it out

In the image there are 2 insulators, the one on the left has a gap i.e a disk missing in between. I have to detect the missing disk with a rectangular box. I know alogorithms SIFT and SURF or by using absdiff() in opencv for calculating difference between two images.
How can i can detect the missing disk if I only have this image.

You should find contours,bounding boxes and circles.After that you can find missing object or noise objectt. Other way to use AI to fit objects and search for that. But this one is very hard job
General algorithm (it's obviously):
find insulators
find gaps
find insulators with gaps.
I think, insulators are kinda standardized by size and look. So, probably, you can detect them by color/texture and/or some specific details. They can't be very "curve", so you can estimate them with lines and separate overlapped elements. If all insulators have same size, than you can normalize them, stretch by one axe, and then detect gaps.
Their is no way to do 100% correct recognizing in all cases, but you can use some knowledge about insulators and get good results.
