Abstract

Computer vision systems aim to analyze data collected from the environment and derive an interpretation from completing a specified task. Vision system tasks are object recognition, low-level processing, representation, model construction, and matching subtasks. One of the classical problems addressed by machine vision is object recognition determining whether or not the image data contains some specific object, feature, or activity. Object recognition or object classification goal is to recognize pre-specified or learning objects or object classes. The application of object recognition provides the ability to recognize objects with their 2D positions in the image or 3D poses in the scene, while the recognition ability of computer vision can also be used for identifying a person’s face or fingerprint, handwritten digits, or a specific vehicle (e.g., Google Goggles).
