Semi-supervised Learning of Patch Based Appearance
Model
|
| Overview |
| This work addresses the problem of learning
object appearance from image patches under a semi-supervised scenario.
We develop an original version of Gaussian mixture model (GMM) learning
algorithm based on partially labeled data; we also propose techniques
for saliency-based ranking and selection of the learned mixture components.
Experiments show effective yet fast learning in identifying salient patches
in the appearance of a class of objects. This work has promising extensions
for both advancing state-of-the-art part-based object detectors, and incorporating
partial knowledge into multimedia analysis systems in a principled manner. |
