Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
a.k.a AI's View or Terminator's View, is pure canvas library to overlay measurement data on top of analysed images.
Having some properties/features extracted from a given image:
props =
src: 'http://foo.com/bar.png'
cover:
colors: ...
saliency: ...
histogram: ...
We can setup AlanView
to draw those features into a given canvas:
view = new AlanView
canvas: document.getElementById 'some-canvas'
maxWidth: 500
maxHeight: 300
view.draw props
Should give something like:
It is also possible to hide layers:
view = new AlanView
canvas: document.getElementById 'some-canvas'
maxWidth: 500
maxHeight: 300
noCircle: true
noSceneFading: true
noColors: true
view.draw props
Those are the options available:
noSaliency
: hides the salient region bounding box
noPolygon
: hides the polygon around the salient regionnoCircle
: hides the circle around the salient regionnoFaces
: hides faces bounding boxesnoScene
: hides scene bounding box
noSceneFading
: hides the fading bounding box around scenenoLines
: hides rows/columns bounding boxesnoColors
: hides the color paletteFAQs
