Abstract: A method including receiving an indication that a first classifier has identified that an image includes an object of a predetermined class of objects. Image data that relates to the image is processed using a second classifier with a first training state, which determines whether the image data includes the object of the predetermined class of objects. In response to the determining, data relating to the image data is transmitted to a remote system. Update data relating to the transmitted data is received from the remote system. The training state of the second classifier is updated to a second training state in response to the update data such that the second classifier with the second training state would make a different determination of whether future image data similar to the image data includes an object of the predetermined class of objects than the second classifier with the first training state.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a method of image processing. The method comprises receiving image data comprising a set of feature vectors of a first dimensionality, the feature vectors corresponding to a class of objects. A variable projection is applied to each feature vector in the set of feature vectors to generate a set of projected vectors of a second dimensionality. The method then comprises processing the set of projected vectors to generate a model for the class of objects. A projection is applied to the model to generate an object classification model, of the first dimensionality, for the class of objects.
