Computation time is an important performance characteristic of computer vision algorithms. The paper shows how existing (slow) binary decision algorithms can be approximated by a (fast) trained WaldBoost classifier. WaldBoost learning minimises the decision time of the classifier while guaranteeing predefined precision. We show that the WaldBoost algorithm together with bootstrapping is able to efficiently handle an effectively unlimited number of training examples provided by the implementation of the approximated algorithm.
