I've been implementing my own HoG transform looking at different sources. While the implementation in scikit-image seems to lack certain features (multiple normalization schemes, general block overlap, Gaussian block window, trillinear interpolation/weighting of bin assignments,...) these don't seem to be that important, at least when applied to my current problem (eye blink analysis).
Most of these would increase complexity, giving the implementation a complicated look, with little gain. I've also been looking into some practical improvements - integral histogram, separating the cell-block histogram feature to use it with other dense feature transforms such as LBP, a HoG visualization function that would render the visualization at higher resolutions that the original image.
Would any of these be welcomed additions to scikit-image?

Personally, I have never used our HoG implementation, but I am very glad that you are doing a thorough review of it! If you can make any improvements (such as the fixes you've already submitted), those are most welcome.

Hello, Martin
I find out that skimage HOG doesn't have "overlapping feature".
May I know whether your patches has merged into master tree or could you please share your branch?
Best Regards Dai Yan

Hello, Martin
I am seeking for HOG implementation with "overlap feature". May I know whether you have commited your patches or could you please share your branch?
Thanks Best Regards
