http://pebibyte.wordpress.com/2011/01/21/simple-face-recognition-using-opencv/ OpenCV OpenCV is an open-source library for computer vision. It has hooks in C, C++ and Python, numerous artificial vision routines and is portable across systems. If you want to develop an open-source computer-vision program, OpenCV is a library of choice.

The PMI of a pair of outcomes x and y belonging to discrete random variables X and Y quantifies the discrepancy between the probability of their coincidence given their joint distribution and the probability of their coincidence given only their individual distributions, assuming independence. Mathematically: The mutual information (MI) of the random variables X and Y is the expected value of the PMI over all possible outcomes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointwise_mutual_information

http://malt.ml.cmu.edu/mw/index.php/Pointwise_mutual_information This quantity is zero if x and y are independent, positive if they are positively correlated, and negative if they are negatively correlated. In Turney, ACL 2002 this was used as a way of assessing the semantic orientation of words or phrases. Specifically the semantic orientation of x was defined as S O ( x ) = P M I ( x ,' e x c e l l e n t ') − P M I ( x ,' p o o r ')

Individual (H(X),H(Y)), joint (H(X,Y)), and conditional entropies for a pair of correlated subsystems X,Y with mutual information I(X; Y). In probability theory and information theory , the mutual information (sometimes known by the archaic term transinformation ) of two random variables is a quantity that measures the mutual dependence of the two random variables. The most common unit of measurement of mutual information is the bit , when logarithms to the base 2 are used. where p ( x , y ) is the joint probability distribution function of X and Y , and and are the marginal probability distribution functions of X and Y respectively.
