Abstract
A method of determining an orientation of an object within an image. The method determines the responses of at least two classifiers in at least one region of the image corresponding to the object. The classifiers have been trained to identify a given object in different specific orientations. The orientation of the object is determined as an average of the specific orientations, weighted by the responses of their respective classifiers.
