METHOD FOR DETECTING OBJECT IN IMAGE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect an object by using appearances and shapes.

SOLUTION: A feature value is computed for a classifier in a window in an image. A determination is made as to whether the feature value is above a predetermined threshold value. If the feature value is above the threshold value, a subsequent feature value is computed for a subsequent classifier in the window of the image. The value of the feature value and the subsequent feature value are combined. A determination is made as to whether the combined feature value is above a combination threshold value for a current combination. If the combined feature value is above the combination threshold value, further the combined feature value is computed to include the subsequent classifiers until there are no subsequent classifiers, or the combined feature value is not above the combination threshold value. A final combined feature value is used to determine if the object has been detected.
