3. SVCL Basic motivation By having information about importance of regions One can wisely use the limited resources

4. SVCL User-adaptive Coder v visual concepts of interest can be anything main idea: let users define a universe of objects of interest train saliency detector for each object e.g. regions of “people”, “the Capitol”, “trees”, etc.

5. SVCL User Adaptive Coder query provided by user train detector current training sets

6. SVCL User-adaptive coder user-adaptive coder: –detector should be generic enough to handle large numbers of object categories –training needs to be reasonably fast (including example preparation time) “face”“lamp”“car”

7. SVCL User-adaptive coder proposed detector –top-down object detector (object category specified by user) –focus on weak supervision instead of highly accurate localization –composed of saliency detection and saliency validation –discriminant saliency: saliency filters training FIND best features

8. SVCL Discriminant Saliency start from a universe of classes (e.g. “faces”, “trees”, “cars”, etc.) design a dictionary of features: e.g. linear combinations of DCT coefficients at multiple scales salient features: those that best distinguish the object class of interest from random background scenes. salient regions are the regions of the image where these detectors have strong response see [Gao & Vasconcelos, NIPS, 2004].

11. SVCL Saliency validation saliency detection: –due to limited feature dictionary and/or limited training set –coarse detection of object class of interest need to eliminate false positives saliency validation: –geometric consistency –reject salient points whose spatial configuration is inconsistent with training examples original Image saliency map for ‘street sign’ example of saliency map

12. SVCL Saliency validation learning a geometric model of salient point con- figuration two components : - image alignment model: - classify points into true positives - configuration model false positives - model each as Gaussian
