Errata:

• 2011/12/08 - On page 184: a const_iterator is used while a regular iterator should have been used since we are calling the erase method on it. You should make that change in the corresponding source file blobs.cpp. Here is the update file.
• 2011/12/08 - Chapter 4 describes a class called ContentFinder; in the source code, this class is in fact called ObjectFinder. Therefore, line 50 of objectfinder.cpp should be ObjectFinder finder; and not ContentFinder finder;. Here is the update file.
• 2011/12/08 - In the source code, the method getHueHistogram of the class ColourHistogram does not correspond to the one described in Chapter 4. Use the following class definition instead of the one provided in original source file colourhistogram.h file.
• 2011/12/08 - On page 195, the definition of the method setLocalMaxWindowSize is not listed but it is a method defined in the source code of the HarrisDetector class in file harrisdetector.h.
