Abstract

In a method of 3D object detection, a learning procedure is used for feature selection from a feature set based on an annotated image-volume database, generating a set of selected features. A classifier is built using a classification scheme to distinguish between an object location and a non-object location and using the set of selected features. The classifier is applied at a candidate volume to determine whether the candidate volume contains an object of interest.
