Abstract
An object detection apparatus is provided with a discriminator applier and a candidate area calculator. The discriminator applier applies a discriminator which detects an object to images acquired in past and calculates object detection information including at least location information of the object detected by the discriminator, in a learning phase. The candidate area calculator performs a machine-learning by use of the object detection information and calculates object candidate area information including at least information specifying a candidate area in which the object may appear in an image.
Claims21
An object detection apparatus comprising:
- a discriminator applier configured to apply a discriminator which detects an object to images acquired in past and calculate object detection information which include at least location information of the object detected by the discriminator, in a learning phase;
- and
- a candidate area calculator configured to perform a machine-learning by use of the object detection information and calculate an object candidate area information which includes at least information specifying a candidate area in which the object may appear in an image.
A traffic monitoring system including:
- a monitoring camera;
- and
- an object detection apparatus configured to detect an object in an image data acquired by the monitoring camera,
- wherein the object detection apparatus comprises:
- a discriminator applier configured to apply a discriminator which detects an object to images acquired in past and calculate object detection information which include at least location information of the object detected by the discriminator, in a learning phase;
- and
- a candidate area calculator configured to perform a machine-learning by use of the object detection information and calculate object candidate area information which includes at least information specifying a candidate area in which the object may appear in an image.
A method of controlling an object detection apparatus, comprising:
- applying a discriminator which detects an object to images acquired in past and calculating object detection information which includes at least a location information of the object detected by the discriminator, in a learning phase;
- and
- performing a machine-learning by use of the object detection information and calculating object candidate area information which includes at least information specifying a candidate area in which the object may appear in an image.
