Abstract
En 中文
A simple method is presented for detecting, localizing and recognizing instances of classes of objects, while accommodating a wide variation in an object's pose. The method utilizes a small two-dimensional template that is warped into an image, and converts localization to a one-dimensional sub-problem, with the search for a match between image and template executed by dynamic programming. For roughly cylindrical objects (like heads), the method recovers three of the six degrees of freedom of motion (2 translation, 1 rotation), and accommodates two more degrees of freedom in the search process (1 rotation, 1 translation). Experiments demonstrate that the method provides an efficient search strategy that outperforms normalized correlation. This is demonstrated in the example domain of face detection and localization, and can extended to more general detection tasks. An additional technique recovers rough object pose from the match results, and is used in a two stage recognition experiment in conjunction with maximization of mutual information.
