Summer Job

I realized that I have yet to blog about by current employment. Now that I am actually starting to get some results I figured now would be a good time. I am working with David Keyes, a professor at columbia in the applied math department on a project with the goal of finding a better way to simulate forest fires. My current aspect of the project is working on automatically detecting the boundary of fires in past forest fire images. Here are some shots of the GUI I have written to do this. Currently I am using Java for the GUI and initial image analysis and a C++ Level sets package to do the segmentation. Check out the pic.
