1. A method of image processing for detecting and recognizing an image object in an image, the method comprising:
- detecting at least one image object using a plurality of pose-specific object detectors;
fusing the outputs from the object pose detectors;
recognizing at least one image object using a plurality of pose-specific object recognizers that use outputs from the pose-specific detectors and the fused output of the pose-specific detectors; and
fusing the outputs of the pose-specific object recognizers to recognize the image object.

Abstract
Methods for image processing for detecting and recognizing an image object include detecting an image object using pose-specific object detectors, and performing fusion of the outputs from the pose-specific object detectors. The image object is recognized using pose-specific object recognizers that use outputs from the pose-specific object detectors and the fused output of the pose-specific object detectors; and by performing fusion of the outputs of the pose-specific object recognizers to recognize the image object.
