Abstract
Machine logic that pre-processes and post-processes images for visual object detection by performing the following steps: receiving a set of image(s); filtering the set of image(s) using a set of multimodal integral filter(s), thereby removing at least a portion of the set of image(s) and resulting in a filtered set of image(s); performing object detection on the filtered set of image(s) to generate a set of object-detected image(s); assembling a first plurality of object-detected image(s) from the set of object-detected image(s); and upon assembling the first plurality of object-detected image(s), performing non-maximum suppression on the assembled first plurality of object-detected image(s).
