ADAPTIVE EDGE-LIKE FEATURE SELECTION DURING OBJECT DETECTION

摘要

A method of recognizing an object of interest in an image includes extracting a first set of features from within the image. Each extracted feature in the first set of features is then categorized as either blob-like or edge-like. A second set of features is then taken from the first set, where a number of the edge-like features to include in the second set of features is based on a relative number of edge-like features to blob-like features included in the first set of extracted features. An object of interest within the image is detected according to the second set of features.
