Abstract
A recognizing apparatus includes a training vector input unit configured to enter training vectors for training, a weak classifier generator configured to obtain weak classifiers based on the value of an element of a dimension common to the training vectors using a learning method, a classifier integrator configured to obtain non-linear mappings for each dimension of the training vectors by combining the weak classifiers, a test vector input unit configured to input a test vector to be classified, a non-linear transformer configured to a transformed vector by transforming the values of the elements of the test vector using the respective non-linear mappings, and a score calculator configured to obtain a classification score by summing the value of the respective elements of the transformed vector and recognize the test vector using the classification score.
