Text Detection Network

This code trains and evaluates a simple fully-convolutional network for text detection in images. The network is trained and tested with a synthetic text dataset consisting of 4000 images (112x112 pixels). Each image has a single and random word placed artificially over different and challenging backgrounds. The code is an ipython notebook used for academic purposes.

Online Multi-Object Detector

This code performs online learning and detection of multiple objects using small human supervision. More specifically, this program computes multiple online random ferns classifiers to learn and detect simultaneously various objects using human assistance. The proposed algorithm uses active learning in combination with an adaptive uncertainty threshold in order to reduce the degree of human assistance as the classifier confidence gets larger. To keep efficiency, all classifiers are computed with the same ferns features.

Random Clustering Ferns

This code computes Random Clustering Ferns (RCFs) to recognize objects exhibiting multiple intra-class modes, where each one is associated to a particular object appearance. In particular, RCFs use Boosted Random Ferns (BRFs) and probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA) to obtain a discriminative and multimodal classifier that automatically clusters the response of its randomized trees in function of the visual object appearance.

In particular, RCFs use Boosted Random Ferns (BRFs) and probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA) to obtain a discriminative and multimodal classifier that automatically clusters the 2D samples using the response of the randomized trees.

Online Rotation-Invariant Detector

This program performs online learning and detection of natural landmarks for aerial robotics applications. More specifically, this code allows to learn and detect simultaneously a visual target under in-plane rotations. Initially, the human selects via the computer's mouse the target in the image that he/she wants to learn and recognize in future frames. Subsequently, the classifier is initially computed using a set of training samples generated artificially and for multiple orientations. Positive samples are extracted using random shift transformations over the target, whereas negative samples are random patches from the background.

Online Human-Assisted Detector

This program learns and detects simultaneously one specific object using human assistance. Initially, the human selects via the computer's mouse the object in the image that he/she wants to learn and recognize in future frames. In run time, the program detects the object and uses its own hypotheses to update and refine the classifier (self-learning). However, in cases where the classifier is uncertain about its output (sample label), the classifier requests the human assistance in order to label the difficult samples.

Boosted Random Ferns

This program computes the Boosted Random Ferns classifier (BRFs) used to perfom efficient detection of object categories in images. Particularly, the BRFs classifier is computed using Real AdaBoost in order to select and combine -automatically- the most discriminative weak classifiers (WCs) and where each one consists of a specific random fern. The random ferns are computed over local Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG) with the goal of increasing its robustness against lighting and intra-class changes.

Boosted Random Ferns 2D

This program computes the boosted random ferns classifier (BRFs) in order to classify two different classes (positive and negative classes) belonging to a two-dimensional feature space (2D). Particularly, the BRFs classifier is computed using Real AdaBoost in order to select and combine -automatically- the most discriminative weak classifiers (WCs) and where each one consists of a specific random fern. For this 2D demo, each fern is a set of decision stumps computed at random over the 2D feature space.

Random Forest 2D

This program computes a Random Forest classifier (RForest) to perform classification of two different classes (positive and negative) in a 2D feature space (x1,x2).

AdaBoost 2D

This program performs the classification of two different classes using the AdaBoost algorithm. In this demo, the samples belong to a feature space of two dimensions (x1,x2) for the sake of simplicity. More precisely, this program computes a strong classifier which ensembles -iteratively- a series of weak classifiers. Each weak classifier is a decision stump that splits on one axe the feature space (2D) according to a split threshold and sign.
