Based on this, the layman performing an evaluation of GIFT
will most likely think that the current method relies
almost entirely on color, and less on texture, and very little
on object shapes or relations whatever. It is an interesting
avenue for future work to design open-source systems that can
adequately utilize information of shapes and object relations.
Of additional practical interest is the applicability
of such systems in meaningful real-life settings.

ps. any feedback is welcome. ;) ;)
Hi,
Just a quick note. Your points are valid, but not really surprising. The
papers on the Viper system on which GIFT is based make it clear that there
are no shape features or object relationships used in the current version
(all available from the Viper website). IMHO, GIFT is intended more as a
framework to which people can add such functionality, rather than a
complete solution. Perhaps that should be made more clear at the download
site.
That being said, there are people working on adding segment and annotation
handling facilities to the GIFT framework at present.
Cheers,
David
