OBJECT CLASSIFICATION WITH CONSTRAINED MULTIPLE INSTANCE SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE

摘要

This disclosure provides method and systems of classifying a digital image of an object. Specifically, according to one exemplary embodiment, an object classifier is trained using a constrained MI-SVM (multiple instance-support vector machine) approach whereby training images of objects are sampled to generate a collection of image regions associated with an object type and viewpoint, and the classifier is trained to determine an appropriate mid-level representation of the training image which is discriminative.
