Lab 1 Object detection and recognition
Simple parts and structure detector
Description and code

Simple object detector with boosting
Description and code

SIFT demo Run the basic demo

  • Modification of simple part based detector
    Currently the best hypothesis is found and performance evaluated.
    Change the code to plot the second best and thrid best face hypothesis
    (This would require changes in do_test_parts_structure.m function).

  • Replace the template features in part based detector with SIFT features.

  • OpenCV, Matlab Resources
    OpenCV code examples
    Matlab code examples from [2]
