Abstract

Method and systems for generating reference features sets for slices of a reference image. The reference features sets generated from slices enables better object recognition and/or tracking when a camera image only shows a portion of the reference image. Metadata is used to link the reference features set of the original image and of the slices together as belonging to the same object, providing hierarchical relationship information and/or spatial relationship information. An image processing function may be dynamically configured on the basis of whether an object has been successfully detected and the metadata associated with the object.
