Prabhjyot's Status Report #13 of 17

[Prabhjyot Singh Sodhi <prabhjyotsingh95 () gmail com>]

Hey devs,

I'll directly jump to the work done this week.

Accomplishments:
1) Drafted and sent the Request for Comments mail which explained the way
we are going about things. Me and my mentors wanted to put it forward
before we went ahead and implement it into nmap.
2) Worked on understanding and fitting opencv libs into nmap's build
system. I got confused halfway through it and spent some time pursuing the
wrong goal (was trying to add statically compiled binaries instead of
building opencv with nmap). But I realized this with the help of my mentors
later in the week.
3) I tried out more test cases (some with 20 prints and others with 40 test
prints) and tried to summarize the results.
4) Apart from this I also spent some time trying to identify which opencv
c++ functions will we need to implement the prediction engine in c++.

Priorities this week:
1) Integrate opencv with nmap. that is, building nmap should also build
opencv for the user (when I say building opencv, I mean just the bare
minimum libraries that we need)
2) Start working on the implementing the prediction engine in nmap's source.

Have a great week ahead!
Cheers,
Prabhjyot
