| Kornia relation to Pytorch Geometry/Geometric | |
| --------------------------------------------- | |
| This project started as a small differentiable geometric computer | |
| vision package called `PyTorch Geometry <https://pypi.org/project/torchgeometry>`_ | |
| released during the PyTorch devcon 2018 (see the presented | |
| `poster <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xiao1Xj9WzjJ08YY_nYwsthE-wxfyfhG/view?usp=sharing>`_). | |
| The project evolved to a more generic computer vision library and due to the naming | |
| conflict between `Pytorch Geometric <https://pytorch-geometric.readthedocs.io/en/latest>`_ | |
| we decided to rename the whole package and focus to more generic vision functionalities. | |
| Kornia relation to Other Computer Vision Projects | |
| ------------------------------------------------- | |
| The project mimics some of the functionalities found in OpenCV. Even though | |
| the project is backed up by the `OpenCV.org <www.opencv.org/>`_, there is no | |
| intention at all to merge in any form both projects. *Kornia* is meant to | |
| provide differentiable operators to train nets, while *OpenCV* scope is inference. | |
