Abstract

In this paper we present a novel method for object class recognition. A vocabulary of object parts is automatically constructed from sample images of the object class by AdaBoost. Images are then represented using parts from this vocabulary. Based on this representation, the Sparse Network of Winnows (SNoW) learning architecture is employed to learn to recognize instances of the object class. Experimental results show that the method achieves high recognition accuracy on different data sets, and is highly robust to partial occlusion and background clutter.
