Back-end Developer
Contributions:7 commits, 6 pushes in 4 years 4 months
Contributions summary:Mikhail primarily contributed to the development of image processing and machine learning functionalities within the C++ library. Their commits focused on implementing new features, such as conditional histogram calculation and Int16ToGray saturated conversion. They also worked on adding the Clone function to SimdView and SimdFrame based on the use of external buffers and added clear methods. This work involved modifying core C++ code and integrating new functions into the Simd library, as well as reducing memory allocations in SimdContour and fixing memory issues in SimdShift.
