  • Method and system for object detection in images utilizing adaptive scanning
    Patent number: 8538171
    Abstract: An object detection method and system for detecting an object in an image utilizing an adaptive image scanning strategy is disclosed herein. An initial rough shift can be determined based on the size of a scanning window and the image can be scanned continuously for several detections of similar sizes using the rough shift. The scanning window can be classified with respect to a cascade of homogenous classification functions covering one or more features of the object. The size and scanning direction of the scanning window can be adaptively changed depending on the probability of the object occurrence in accordance with scan acceleration. The object can be detected by an object detector and can be localized with higher precision and accuracy.
