A SYSTEM FOR DETECTING AN OBJECT OF INTEREST IN A SCENE

摘要

The present invention relates to a system for detecting an object of interest in a scene. The system operates by receiving an image frame of a scene and extracting features from the image frame, the features being descriptors. The descriptors are quantized to generate PHOW features. A sliding window protocol is implemented to slide a window over the image and analyze the PHOW features that fall inside the window. Finally, the system determines if the PHOW features represent the object of interest and, if so, then designates the window as a location in the image with a detected object of interest.
