Abstract
A method to analyze an image and determine whether to output image data associated with an area of the image is provided. An object detection algorithm using training image data to detect an object based at least in part on a similarity of appearance of image data to data derived from the training image data is provided. Weakly detected objects are classified based on characteristics associated with the weakly detected object and may be added to the training image dataset for use in further training of the object detection algorithm. The object detection algorithm is trained with a revised dataset, the revised dataset being updated with data generated by the object detection algorithm.
