Adaptive Decision Support System for On-Line Multi-Class Learning and Object Detection

Abstract

A new online multi-class learning algorithm is proposed with three main characteristics. First, in order to make the feature pool fitter for the pattern pool, the adaptive feature pool is proposed to dynamically combine the three general features, Haar-like, Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG), and Local Binary Patterns (LBP). Second, the external model is integrated into the proposed model without re-training to enhance the efficacy of the model. Third, a new multi-class learning and updating mechanism are proposed that help to find unsuitable decisions and adjust them automatically. The performance of the proposed model is validated with multi-class detection and online learning system. The proposed model achieves a better score than other non-deep learning algorithms used in public pedestrian and multi-class databases. The multi-class databases contain data for pedestrians, faces, vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles, and aircraft.
