Image Manipulation

Overview

This manual is divided into several sections, each focusing on a specific aspect of the Kognitos Image and Text Processing Library.

Introduction

The Kognitos Image and Text Processing Library offers a powerful and intuitive way to manipulate images, generate QR codes, and visualize text. This integration enables users to perform a wide range of operations on images, create QR codes for various data types, and generate word clouds for text visualization, all through the use of Kognitos’ natural language processing capabilities. This section provides an overview of the library and outlines the prerequisites for using it effectively.

Prerequisites for Using the Library

Before you can start using the Kognitos Image and Text Processing Library, there are several prerequisites that need to be met:

  1. Kognitos Account: You need to have an active Kognitos account. If you do not have one, you can sign up for a Kognitos trial account to get started.
  2. Basic Understanding of Image and Text Processing: While Kognitos simplifies interactions, having a basic understanding of image manipulation (e.g., resizing, rotating) and text visualization (e.g., word clouds) will help you automate more effectively with Kognitos.

Once these prerequisites are met, you are ready to start leveraging the power of Kognitos to enhance your image and text processing tasks, making them more accessible, efficient, and customizable.


Image Manipulation

Interacting with images is a core functionality when using the Kognitos Image and Text Processing Library. This section covers how to resize, rotate, convert to grayscale, and flip images.

Resizing Images

To resize an image, specify the desired height and width.

Example:

get the image
resize the image with
    the height is 600
    the width is 800

This command resizes the image to a height of 600 pixels and a width of 800 pixels.

Rotating Images

To rotate an image, specify the angle and direction.

Rotate Clockwise

Example:

get the image
rotate the image with
    the angle is 90
    the direction is "clockwise"

This command rotates the image 90 degrees clockwise.

Rotate Counter-Clockwise

Example:

get the image
rotate the image with
    the angle is 45
    the direction is "counter-clockwise"

This command rotates the image 45 degrees counter-clockwise.

Converting Images to Grayscale

To convert an image to grayscale, use the following command:

Example:

get the image
convert the image to grayscale

This command converts the image to grayscale.

Flipping Images

To flip an image, specify the mode (horizontal or vertical).

Flip Horizontally (Default)

Example:

get the image
flip the image

This command flips the image horizontally.

Flip Vertically

Example:

get the image
flip the image with
    the mode is "vertical"

This command flips the image vertically.


QR Code Generation

Generating QR codes is a useful feature for encoding data such as URLs and WiFi configurations. This section covers how to generate QR codes with different types of data.

Generate a QR Code with a URL

Example:

generate a QR code with
    the data is "https://www.example.com"

This command generates a QR code containing the URL "https://www.example.com".

Generate a QR Code with WiFi Configuration

Example:

generate a QR code with
    the data is "WIFI:T:WPA;S:mynetwork;P:mypass;;"

This command generates a QR code containing the WiFi configuration for a network named "mynetwork" with the password "mypass".


Text Visualization

Visualizing text as a word cloud is a powerful way to represent the frequency of words in a given text. This section covers how to create word clouds with specific attributes or default settings.

Creating Word Clouds

To create a word cloud, specify the text and any desired attributes such as background color, width, and height.

Word Cloud with Specific Attributes

Example:

the text is "Hello world, hello everyone"
visualize the text as a word cloud with
    the background color is "black"
    the width is 600
    the height is 400

This command creates a word cloud with the specified text, background color, width, and height.

Word Cloud with Default Settings

Example:

the text is "Data science, machine learning, artificial intelligence"
visualize the text as a word cloud

This command creates a word cloud with the specified text using default settings.


Image Generation

AI image generation is not currently supported by Kognitos.

Glossary of Terms

  • Image Manipulation: The process of altering or transforming an image using various techniques such as resizing, rotating, flipping, and converting to grayscale.
  • QR Code: A type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional barcode) that contains data for a locator, identifier, or tracker that points to a website or application.
  • Word Cloud: A visual representation of text data, typically used to depict keyword metadata (tags) on websites or to visualize free-form text. The importance of each word is shown with font size or color.

By following these guidelines, you can effectively manage image manipulation, QR code generation, and text visualization tasks using the Kognitos Image and Text Processing Library.
