Abstract

A system for evaluating a classifier of an image signal processor (ISP) includes (i) a microprocessor and (ii) memory storing training images, the microprocessor being capable of sending each training image to the ISP. The system includes machine-readable instructions stored within the memory and executed by the microprocessor capable of: (i) selecting a subset of images based upon a divider position, (ii) controlling the ISP to classify each image as belonging or not belonging to an object class, (iii) determining a positive-match count, (iv) determining an error count based upon the positive-match count and total number of training images belonging to the object class, (v) repeating, for other divider positions, steps of selecting, controlling, and determining to identify an optimal divider position and a minimum-error count; and (vi) determining the classifier's optimality by comparing the optimal divider position to a predetermined optimal divider position and a predetermined minimum-error count.
