Abstract
A system comprises an input component, a feature extractor, an object classifier, an adaptation component and a calibration tool. The input component is configured to receive one or more images, and the feature extractor is configured to extract features for one or more objects in the one or more images, the extracted features comprising at least one view-independent feature. The object classifier is configured to classify the one or more objects based at least in part on the extracted features and one or more object classification parameters, and the adaptation component is configured to adjust the classification of at least one of the objects based on one or more contextual parameters. The calibration tool is configured to adjust one or more of the object classification parameters based on likelihoods for characteristics associated with one or more object classes.
