Last active April 13, 2018 17:41 — forked from DavidYKay/simple_cb.py
Simple color balance algorithm using Python 2.7.8 and OpenCV 2.4.10. Ported from: http://www.morethantechnical.com/2015/01/14/simplest-color-balance-with-opencv-wcode/
""" White balance (color balance)
Adjust colors to flatten color histogram peaks and broaden color spectrum for better color contrast.
This is also sometimes called white balancing or probability distribution whitening.

r"""Faulty positive semidefinite matrix generator
Using a normally distributed random matrix it's pretty
rare that you'll get a semidefinite matrix from the product,
even for low dimensions. For 3 dimensions you have about a 0.001%% yield
>>> pos_semi_matrices = generate_positive_semidefinite_matrices(num_samples=1000)
6.7% were positive semidefinite and not positive definite
45.5% were positive definite
52.2% were positive semidefinite

"""Attempt to confirm results in paper by Miller and Sanjurjo
["Confused by the Gambler's and Hot Hand Falacy?..."](http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2627354)
Calculate the probability of a streak of length 2 in a coin flip
for a small sequence of attempts ("finite sequence of iid Bernoulli trials").
The fencepost counting issue means you have to ignore one of the flips.
Perhaps this is what causes Miller and Sanjurjo to get 0.4 instead of 0.5.
"the conditional relative frequency... is 0.4 not 0.5"

`cygcheck -d -c` Cygwin Package Information. Kind of like requirements.txt for Cygwin. This was sufficient for installing pip and `pip install numpy` (compiled/linked with gcc).
