Learning a Discriminative Classifier Using Shape Context Distances

Abstract

For the purpose of object recognition, we learn one discriminative classifier based on one prototype, using shape context distances as the feature vector. From multiple prototypes, the outputs of the classifiers are combined using the method called "error correcting output codes". The overall classifier is tested on a benchmark dataset and is shown to outperform existing methods with far fewer prototypes.
