Dear all,

Please use ftp to submit your project, the FTP's information is the same

IP : 140.112.29.184 (192.168.1.184 if you are under the CMLAB domain)
port : 521
id/pw : vfx2012/cyy_starwar2012

P.S. For security consideration, please choose the mode "FTPES (FTP over explicit TLS/SSL)" and accept the certificate


The submission format is similar :

Your submission will need to be stored in a compressed file named after your student IDs; for instance, D99944001_D99922002.zip or R99944003.rar. Both formats, rar and zip, are acceptable. According to the requirements on the asignmment webpage, this compressed file should contain 5 main directories

"program"	: the complete source code and executable files of your program

"test"		: a complete example to show your work. This directory should contain 3 sub-directories
- "original"    : the original pictures you have taken for stitching
- "matched"     : the images after feature matching stage. The matching pairs need to be marked, and the images can be either overlaied or seperated.
- "stitched"    : the stitched result panorama

"instruction"	: instructions to run the test example

"report"	: Both html/pdf format are acceptable, details are described on the webpage! As for html files, please include all resources insides, do not submit only a network address.

"artifact"	: This directory should contain 2 sub-directories
- "original"    : the original photographs you have taken for stitching
- "stitched"    : your favorite result to join the bonus competition, "only one image in png format!"

Please note that
1. Any images with copyright or from the Internet cannot be used as the source/result of your artifact!
2. The grading policy is "the more you do by yourself, the more you obtained!" That is, you implementation will not include "only call a few functions, which will complete all your projects, from the existed library, or direct using the codes from others or the net". Any other codes and library should be "reference", and the existed library is only your assistance tool not your whole work.
3. To successfully operate your executable, all necessary library files should be accompanied with it.
4. Only one complete test example is needed.
5. The favorite artifact should be generated by the program you have implemented (not the reference software!)
6. The delay of submission will be counted in seconds, not days. That means if your submission exceeds a few seconds, it will not be recorded as "one day delay".
7. To avoid the network traffic jam, please try to submit before the deadline.
8. If you need to update the assignment after submission, your new submission should be named by "version"; for example, D99944001_D99922002_v2.zip for the 2nd submission. TA will only take the latest one as your final result.

If you have any question, please feel free to contact TAs.

Sincerely yours,
VFX TA
