  2. Object Instance Recognition • Want to recognize the same or equivalent object instance, which may vary • Slight deformations • Change in lighting • Occlusion • Rotation, rescaling, translation, perspective = = =

  3. Object Instance Recognition • Template matching: faces • Recognize by directly computing pixel distance of aligned faces • Principal component analysis gives a subspace that preserves variance • Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) or Fisher Linear Discriminants (FLD) gives a subspace that maximizes discrimination • This could work for other kinds of aligned objects

  4. Object Instance Recognition • If object is not aligned, we need to perform geometric matching • Find distinctive and repeatablekeypoints • E.g., Difference of Gaussian, Harris corners, or MSER regions • Represent the appearance at these points (e.g., SIFT) • Match pairs of keypoints • Estimate transformation (e.g., rotation, scale, translation) from matched keypoints • Hough voting • Geometric refinement • Clustering (visual words) and inverse document frequency enable fast search in large datasets B3 B1 B2 A1 A3 A2

  5. Category recognition • Instances across categories tend to vary in more challenging ways than a single instance across images

  6. Image Categorization • In training, a classifier is trained for a particular feature representation using labeled examples • The features should generally capture local patterns but with loose spatial encoding • For scene categorization, a reasonable choice is often • Compute visual words (detect interest points, represent them with SIFT, and cluster) • Compute a spatial pyramid of these visual words, composed of histograms at different spatial resolutions • Train a linear SVM classifier or one with a Chi-squared kernel Training Images Training Labels Image Features Classifier Training Trained Classifier

  7. Object Category Detection • One difficulty of object category detection is that objects could appear at many scales or translations, and keypoint matching will be unreliable • A simple way around this is to treat category detection as a series of image categorization tasks, breaking up the image into thousands of windows and applying a binary classifier to each • Often, the object is classified using edge-based features whose positions are defined at fixed position in the sliding window Object or Background?

  8. Object Category Detection • Sliding windows might work well for rigid objects • But some objects may be better thought of as spatial arrangements of parts

  9. Object Category Detection • Part-based models have three key components • Part definition and appearance model • Model of geometry or layout of parts • Algorithm for efficient search • ISM Model • Parts are clustered detected keypoints • Position of each part wrt object center/size is recorded • Search is done through Hough voting / Mean-shift clustering combination • Pictorial structures model • Parts are rectangles detected in silhouette • Layout is articulated model with tree-shaped graph • Search through dynamic programming or probabilistic sampling

  10. Region-based recognition • Sometimes, we want to label image pixels or regions • Basic approach: • Segment the image into blocks, superpixels, or regions • Represent each region with histograms of keypoints, color, texture, and position • Classify each region (variety of classifiers used)

  11. Context in Recognition • Objects usually are surrounded by a scene that can provide context in the form of naerby objects, surfaces, scene category, geometry, etc.

  12. Context provides clues for function • What is this? These examples from Antonio Torralba

  13. Context provides clues for function • What is this? • Now can you tell?

  14. Sometimes context is the major component of recognition • What is this?

  15. Sometimes context is the major component of recognition • What is this? • Now can you tell?

  16. More Low-Res • What are these blobs?

  17. More Low-Res • The same pixels! (a car)

  18. We will see more on context later…
