5. An automated, computerized method for learning object recognition in an image, comprising the steps of:
-
providing a training set of standard images; calculating intrinsic images corresponding to the standard images by providing, for each of the standard images of the training set, a standard image comprising an array of pixels, each pixel having N band color values;
generating a histogram on a bi-illuminant chromaticity plane, the histogram being divided into bins;
calculating an envelope value for each bin of the histogram;co-relating each of the pixels of the standard image to a corresponding bin of the histogram; and mapping the N band color values of each pixel to the envelope value of the co-related bin to provide a material image as an intrinsic image; and building a classifier as a function of the intrinsic images. - View Dependent Claims (6)
