We study the question of feature sets for robust visual object recognition, adopting linear SVM based human detection as a test case. After reviewing existing edge and gradient ba...
Local spatiotemporal features or interest points provide compact but descriptive representations for efficient video analysis and motion recognition. Current local feature extract...
Current feature-based object recognition methods use information derived from local image patches. For robustness, features are engineered for invariance to various transformation...
— Local image features are used for a wide range of applications in computer vision and range imaging. While there is a great variety of detector-descriptor combinations for imag...
