THE COMBINATION OF HMAX AND HOGS IN AN ATTENTION GUIDED FRAMEWORK FOR OBJECT LOCALIZATION

Abstract

Object detection and localization is a challenging task. Among several approaches, more recently hierarchical methods of feature-based object recognition have been developed and demonstrated high-end performance measures. Inspired by the knowledge about the architecture and function of the primate visual system, the computational HMAX model has been proposed. At the same time robust visual object recognition was proposed using feature distributions, e.g. histograms of oriented gradients (HOGs). Since both models build upon an edge representation of the input image, the question arises, whether one kind of approach might be superior to the other. Introducing a new biologically inspired attention steered processing framework, we demonstrate that the combination of both approaches gains the best results.
