Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Hack : Web based face login for wikipedia
Hello All,
I am glad to see too many comments and views, these conversations help
understand and improve upon. Let me be clear that this is purely a {HACK},
this is not official and it's only a hack, a step in AI. Most people have
concern on the following issue
*Privacy* - If some one wants to use such feature app need image to train
the model (AI Model), which is store in encrypted blob format (image not
visible to anyone, If any one want to use such feature then he have to use
under CC License)
*@Benjamin Lees : *Its secure! its not simply you show {X} Image to camera
and simply login to his account. What face technique I am using same technique
using in payment industry.
*@**Winged Blades : *Very soon I will share source code and blog, I hope
you will get you all answer.
@*Subhashish Panigrahi : *I went though all your comments, If some one want
to use such feature then he have to use under CC licence.
If you more doubt will discuss on phone/email.
Thanks & Regards

[Wikimediaindia-l] Hack : Web based face login for wikipedia
Hello Wikimedian, 3D face recognition has become a trending research direction in both industry and academia. Using your face to authorize to unlock your phone is popular, but on the web it has not been seen a lot, maybe because it’s not trivial to implement. Is it possible to implement face verification using just HTML5, Javascript and some Go? Yes! I did it in an hour using Javascript, Nodejs, and OpenCV for wikipedia login. I Implemented face recognition and web login for wikipedia. Please check following video and screenshots.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Create text animation video from wikipedia article (Text2Video)
Hello Subha, Nice to hear from your side :) - Is there a sample that we can check out? (I looked up for Text2Video and found this <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHX8FSJWzrU> but I think I'd rather not have any animation to save data if I was visually impaired because I fail to see the purpose of the animation in the first place) *=> Yes!! You already saw the working app demo (I **recorded** ) in youtube, please check link for more details * https://fxoshack.wordpress.com/2019/03/11/create-text-animation-video-from-wikipedia-article-text2video/*. application **store** animation in .mp4 using ffmpeg ttol, Then I can export in any format.* - How many Indian languages have a working TTS as that would be the basis for a tool like this? (Open Source tools like NVDA < https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html?> which uses machine synthesis which is by far the only available TTS for several Indian languages) *Here I tested 4 language (Hindi, Marathi, Kannada, English) other I have not checked, very soon I will share update on this. **Accuracy** is around 80%, some **accent** is not up to mark.* - Which language Wikipedias have been tested on so far? *(Marathi, Hindi) I have recording I will share.* - I am yet to be convinced that VideoWiki is useful in any manner, particularly from a digital accessibility standpoint (in simple words, why one would use VideoWiki or what is the target audience for VideoWiki). It's fun to play with a platform like this but I'm still waiting to see the practical use (and I did have fun hearing to Wikipedia articles using VideoWiki) *VideoWiki is good product, they have their target audience and use case. This app create very small video/Text animation (Max 1minute), I am targeting to Airport (display), School-**School Bus**(display)**, Bus/Train **(display)**, Displays in public area. * - For something to work for Indian languages, the TTS itself should be decent enough and the application should not be data-heavy (thanks to carriers like Jio and in general drop in data charges, but we still have a long way to go). I'm sure this is something that might have occurred to others as well. *Application not using heavy data connection, event app not making any request for TTS. all processing happing in local system.* - The other and the most important aspect, again speaking from a common user's expectation, something that is intended for accessibility should be mobile-focuses, meaning it has to start from an Android app as majority (>470 mn[1] of India's Internet user population) Internet users access the Internet from their smartphones whereas most of them wouldn't have access to a computer *It's WebApp, No Mobile.* - Last but not the least, there is plenty of resources being spent for languages like English and anything in English, IMO would be reinventing the wheel whereas many Indian languages need support. Thankfully, Google is adding more languages though they are not always Open Source and that itself is a big issue for the Wikimedia community. *NOTE :: Feel free to ask any question or will schedule hangout session more clarification. * Thanks & Regards Santosh Shingare, Executive member, Wikimedia India Chapter +91 9890984632 Skype: cherishsantosh | http://wiki.wikimedia.in On Wed, Mar 13, 2019 at 3:35 PM Santosh Shingare wrote: > Hello Subha, > > Nice to hear from your side :) > > - Is there a sample that we can check out?
