Hello,

sravya_bhimavar

Can someone help me with the image recognition process using RM?

David_A

@sgenzer yes, the extension is available and it can be installed.
It is functional even if a bit dated, with some small issues for a few operators. The open source status is somewhat pending.

Integrating another API, via a script or a new Operator is always a feasible option, where you can also learn a lot by (and of course share with the community).

In the future it's planned to add image processing to the Deep-Learning extension,  but no fixed date yet.

Best,
David

hello @sravya_bhimavar - welcome to the community. Unfortunately only image recognition tools that have ever existed for RapidMiner are a bit out of date (see http://www.burgsys.com/image-analysis-software.php). However you could easily take advantage of any number of image processing APIs from within RapidMiner and then process the results.

Hallo @sravya_bhimavar

The IMMI (IMmage MIning) extension is mentionned in the book "RapidMiner Datamining Use Cases and Business Analytics Aplications" by M.Hofmann & R. Klinkenberg. Chapter 20. I suppose that this extension is no longer available and there is limited information about it. Scott can certainly correct me if I am wrong.

@Maerkli you're absolutely correct. Burgsys created this extension years ago and recently just decided to make it open-source and no longer work on it. I will say that our research team in Dortmund, Germany has been playing around with it to see how much work it would be to bring it up to speed. I will let @David_A chime in if he wants to shine more light on this.
