An object recognition system is described that incorporates swarming classifiers. The swarming classifiers comprise a plurality of software agents configured to operate as a cooperative swarm to classify an object in a domain as seen from multiple view points. Each agent is a complete classifier and is assigned an initial velocity vector to explore a solution space for object solutions. Each agent is configured to perform an iteration, the iteration being a search in the solution space for a potential solution optima where each agent keeps track of its coordinates in multi-dimensional space that are associated with an observed best solution (pbest) that the agent has identified, and a global best solution (gbest) where the gbest is used to store the best location among all agents. Each velocity vector changes towards pbest and gbest, allowing the cooperative swarm to concentrate on the vicinity of the object and classify the object.
