For some reason, I had a difficult time running Octave-CLI on my Ubuntu machine and it took me ~20 minutes to figure out how to start it. I believe I began | |||
[https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/v4.0.1/Invoking-Octave-from-the-Command-Line.html here], then realizing it started the GUI, I tried to look at the command line options; | |||
however, there was no option to start the CLI. It took me a while to realize that the CLI is a different program altogether and I have to type in ''octave-cli'' on my machine to | |||
start it. As of now, I can find anything I need reasonably well through the documentation. | |||

**: | **: I chose to base my proposal idea off of [https://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code_Project_Ideas#Improvements_to_N-dimensional_image_processing Improvements to N-Dimensional Image Processing]. I want to focus on implementing the missing color functions from the Image package, which I have specified [https://wiki.octave.org/Image_package#Color here]. In particular, I believe that implementing these functions will be beneficial for Octave because information about various color spaces and ICC profiles provide a way for processing real world images easier. Furthermore, it was noted in the suggested project proposal that there is a need to implement N-Dimensional image input for applications such as medical imaging; therefore, providing support for such applications will be considered in this proposal. | ||

** <pre>Community Bonding Period - (April 23 - May 13): I plan on utilizing this time to learn more about the image package, specifically utilizing vectorization techniques, learning about profiling, and writing a good suite of tests. I plan on doing this by further researching the functions that have already been implemented and consulting my mentor/peers for further information. During the latter half of the time period, I plan on constructing detailed implementation outlines for each color function and running them by my mentor.</pre> | ** <pre>Community Bonding Period - (April 23 - May 13): I plan on utilizing this time to learn more about the image package, specifically utilizing vectorization techniques, learning about profiling, and writing a good suite of tests.

** <pre>Coding 1 (Phase 1) - (May 14 - June 14): I will use the outlines to integrate support for ICC profiles. After I write each function, I will write a suite of tests to make sure the code is passing. Then, I will profile each functions to discover any possible improvements.</pre> | ** <pre>Coding 1 (Phase 1) - (May 14 - June 14): I will use the outlines to integrate support for ICC profiles.
