Diary: November 2003
Right then. Tomorrow I have a meeting with my project supervisor, for which I'm supposed to have learnt all about convolution and written an edge detection algorithm.
However, I haven't started that, because I have spent all week (pretty much literally) writing my agent for the agents coursework.
An agent which, as it turns out, has a fatally flawed strategy.
So I have just deleted it and started it again. With a new strategy which isn't quite as flawed. 20 hours work my arse.
My group partner is not too happy, since he has almost finished the ...

I now know a little about convolution and I have the Prewitt and Sobel convolution masks. Fantastic. However, I was unable to implement them in matlab, because unfortunately it seems that I used up todays quota of luck by catching the bus home. Well, actually I missed the 418 and had to hang around for the next one, so I didn't really catch the bus, but never mind. Anyway, matlab goes on about some permission thing, and spews out lots of red writing, which must be bad. So I closed it. I will go up early tomorrow morning (argh ...

On campus before 9, an hour to learn matlab. This sucks!
What also sucks is the way that I got the 8.22 in the hope that it would get me to uni significantly earlier, and then the 8.34 caught us up because they took a shortcut and we stopped at pretty much every bus stop between Oldfield Park and the university, and our bus nearly broke down on the hill. And matlab doesn't want to work here. I have a feeling I have to be added to some list somewhere by someone important. Yay!
Right then. Time ...

I have just had a meeting with my project supervisor... it started at 11.15, and went on till 12.40. This was great, apart from for the fact that I had a lecture at 12.15...
And FINALLY I have had some post in my departmental pigeon hole! 5 CDs from tonbschl for the website, in a large jiffy bag. Fantastic :)
Unfortunately this means I have to do some work on that this weekend (as well as agents and edge detection), so WHEEE for me.

Right. So much for an hour implementation; I've been working on my agent since about 12.40 yesterday (friday). I've managed to completely break entertainment, but it's still doing pretty well, so it's not all bad. But I'm now very tired, so it's time for bed.
Oh, and I found out that they'd like the new tonbschl site done by Tuesday, so this will be a fun weekend...
