I seem to remember that you're doing that as your Master's thesis, is that right?
Sort of. I have chosen a certain state of the art method and what I do is changing things and/or implementing new stuff. At the moment I am in the midst of re-creating the baseline technique with Java and OpenCV. Later I'll add my stuff and then I evaluate the methods against data. Then I compare the numbers and if my numbers are better, my proposed changes have a fair chance of being an improvement over the original algorithm. If not, then not.
