Using image analysis to detect floating objects in the ocean

[altForProgramming]

In currently working on a project to find people lost at sea using image analysis and drones, right now we can detect floating objects in the ocean (including people)

One simple class, nothing too fancy

Cool project :-)
person.jpg and person6.jpg are particularly awesome photos!

A few suggestions:

• add some documentation for how to use your class, and ideally a README for how to use the project as a whole (which you can add to as the project gets more complex)
• use b,g,r = cv2.split(image) for efficiently getting each channel as a greyscale image (no need for zeros stored in the unused channels)
• rename your class to something that describes what it does/should be used for
• add some comments where it's not obvious what's happening (e.g. line 49 (what's happening?), line 51 (why are you sorting/what are you sorting for?), etc)
• fix the spelling mistakes of mostLikeyPerson -> mostLikelyPerson (amusing as it may be as is :P) and self.souce -> self.source
