Object categorization using co-occurrence, location and appearance
Research output: Contribution to journal › Conference article › Research › peer-review
In this work we introduce a novel approach to object categorization that incorporates two types of context - co-occurrence and relative location - with local appearance-based features. Our approach, named CoLA (for Co-occurrence, Location and Appearance), uses a conditional random field (CRF) to maximize object label agreement according to both semantic and spatial relevance. We model relative location between objects using simple pairwise features. By vector quantizing this feature space, we learn a small set of prototypical spatial relationships directly from the data. We evaluate our results on two challenging datasets: PASCAL 2007 and MSRC. The results show that combining co-occurrence and spatial context improves accuracy in as many as half of the categories compared to using co-occurrence alone.
