		<description><![CDATA[The current LireDemo 0.9.4 beta release features a new indexing routine, which is much faster than the old one. It&#8217;s based on the producer-consumer principle and makes &#8212; hopefully &#8212; optimal use of I/O and up to 8 cores of a system. Moreover, the new PHOG feature implementation is included and you can give it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the implementation of the PHOG descriptor I came around the situation that no well-performing Canny Edge Detector in pure Java was available. &#8220;Pure&#8221; in my case means, that it just takes a Java BufferedImage instance and computes the edges.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I checked in the latest LIRE revision featuring the PHOG descriptor. I basically goes along image edge lines (using the Canny Edge Detector) and makes a fuzzy histogram of gradient directions. Furthermore it does that on different pyramid levels, meaning that the image is split up like a quad-tree and all sub-images get their [...]]]></description>
