BioFilter Matching Example

The BioFilter Matching will have four steps:

 Signatures
 Training 
 Matching 
 Analysis

The BioFilter training requires two files, t1.txt and match.txt:

 T1.txt is the signature file, which contains many signatures. 
	Each image is converted into a signature.
 Match.txt is a list of matching pairs. This file will teach the 
	ImageFinder who will match with whom.

To get the N-signature file, a1.txt:

 Click the Source button, go to ex_label directory and select 
	any file in the folder. This will specify the input directory. 
 Click the source > button a few times to see the images;
 Click menu item Signature/N Signature (a1.txt) to get the signatures 
	in a1.txt file.

Match.txt
 Open the file, .\data\match_ex_label.txt. This file lists 152 matching 
	pairs. Save it to match.txt (overwrite the existing file). Now the 
	training file is prepared. 

T1.txt:
	Click the Source button, go to ex_label directory and select 
	any file in the folder. This will specify the input directory. 
	Click the source > button a few times to see the images;
	Click menu item Signature/N Signature (a1.txt) to get signature 
	file, a1.txt file;
	Click menu item Signature/Copy a1.txt to t1.txt to get the 
	training file, t1.txt.

Note: Here t1.txt is for training and a1.txt is for 1:N Matching and 
N:N Matching.

Training
 Click BioFilter\Training\Training to train the BioFilter.

N: N Matching compares each image, a1.txt, with every image in the a1.txt:

 Click menu item BioFilter/Matching/N:N (a1.txt vs. a1.txt) button 
	to complete a N:N Match.

1:N Matching:
 Click the Key button, in the ex_labeldirectory, select the first 
	image L01008gi-020501.jpg;
 Click menu item BioFilter/Matching/1:N (Key vs. a1.txt) button to 
	complete a 1:N Match.
