object detection training tool question

Dear all:    

     I have a question about TI’s Object Detection training toolbox of Acf-jacinto.

     I use the training dataset from Caltech - INRIA Pedestrian Test Dataset,

     and input database into Piotr's toolbox(TI fork source) and TI Acf-jacinto toolbox.

    We obtain different results, Piotr's toolbox detect all pedestrian in first test image but TI Acf-jacinto toolbox only detect 3 pedestrian.

    The miss rates are not the same (Piotr's is 16%,  TI Acf-jacinto is 35% as attached).

    Is this correct detect result & miss rate for TI Acf-jacinto toolbox?

    

  • Hi Josh,

    I have forwarded your question to algorithms experts.

  • I think the pictures that you showed are correct. However, there is an aspect of input resolution. The choice is between running a slow algorithm and hence using a small resolution image as input or running a fast algorithm and using a large resolution image as input.

    The algorithm in acf-jacinto training tool is tuned to be a fast variant of the algorithm in Piotr's toolbox. You can run the object detection at much higher resolution using this algorithm. We have seen that doing object detection on a higher resolution improves the detection quality. Hence we have used some trade-offs to increase the speed/input resolution of the algorithm.
