Abstract

This paper presents a novel system that is fusing efficient and state-of-the-art techniques of stereo vision and machine learning, aiming at object detection and recognition. To this goal, the system initially creates depth maps by employing the Graph-Cut technique. Then, the depth information is used for object detection by separating the objects from the whole scene. Next, the Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is used, providing the system with unique object's feature key-points, which are employed in training an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The system is then able to classify and recognize the nature of these objects, creating knowledge from the real world.
