Visual recognition remains an extremely challenging problem in computer vision. Most previous approaches have been evaluated on small datasets. However, ImageNet dataset with millions images for thousands classes poses more challenges for the next generation of vision mechanisms. Learning an efficient visual classifier and constructing a robust visual representation in a large scale scenario are two main research issues. In this book, we present how to tackle these issues. Firstly, a novel approach is presented by using several local descriptors to improve the discriminative power of image...
