Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ TrainingSet() [1/2]

TrainingSet ( )
inline

Create an empty training set.

Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ TrainingSet() [2/2]

TrainingSet ( const String fileName)
inlineexplicit

Load a saved training set from a file.

Parameters
[in]fileNameName of the file to be loaded.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CheckConsistency()

std::vector< SearchResult > CheckConsistency ( double  threshold,
double  density = 1.0 
)
inline

Test all images in the parent training set for instances of this model that might have been forgotten during the training process.

Parameters
[in]thresholdCorrelation threshold to be used for the consistency check.
[in]densityDensity to be used for the consistency check.
Returns
Potentially forgotten positive samples that may be added to the training set.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ ClassCount()

int ClassCount ( ) const
inline

The number of identifiable classes inside this training set.

Returns
The number of classes.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

The number of classes cannot be higher than the number of trained models (see property Models). If two models have the same name, the classifier can no longer distinguish between these two models, reducing the ClassCount property.

◆ Comment()

String Comment ( ) const
inline

Get the comment assigned to the training set at generation time.

Returns
The comment.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ CorrelationThreshold()

double CorrelationThreshold ( ) const
inline

Gets the correlation threshold. The correlation value under which Minos proposes generating a new model, not generating a new instance of an existing model with which the new instance correlates poorly.

Returns
The correlation threshold.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ ExpectationRadius()

double ExpectationRadius ( ) const
inline

Get the expectation radius - the radius that is searched for the best occurrence of a sample, when adding a new sample to the training set.

Returns
The expectation radius.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ Extent()

Rect< int > Extent ( ) const
inline

Extent of the classes in the training set relative to the anchor point.

Returns
The training set classes extent.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ FileName()

String FileName ( ) const
inline

Name of the file, from which this training set was loaded (empty string if this image list was neither loaded nor saved since its construction).

Returns
The file name.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ FromBuffer() [1/2]

static TypedRange< std::unique_ptr< TrainingSet >, std::uint8_t, RANGE >::type FromBuffer ( const RANGE &  buffer)
inlinestatic

Recreate a serialized Minos training set from a byte array.

Parameters
[in]bufferByte array from which to create the training set.
Returns
Pointer to the loaded training set.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ FromBuffer() [2/2]

static std::unique_ptr< TrainingSet > FromBuffer ( const void *  buffer,
size_t  size 
)
inlinestatic

Recreate a serialized Minos training set from a byte array.

Parameters
[in]bufferByte array from which to create the training set.
[in]sizeNumber of bytes to use.
Returns
Pointer to the loaded training set.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ FromHandle()

static std::unique_ptr< TrainingSet > FromHandle ( HandleGuard< TrainingSet > &&  guard)
inlinestatic

Creates training set from a classic API handle.

Parameters
[in]guardLife time guard for C-API handle.
Returns
The training set created from the classic API handle.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

The training set takes ownership of the handle, so you must share it before using this function.

◆ Handle()

void * Handle ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

Classic API CLF handle.

Returns
Classic API handle.
Exceptions
Doesnot throw any exception.

It is normally not necessary to work with this handle.

◆ Images()

ImageInfoCollection & Images ( )
inline

The images contained in this training set.

Returns
The image info collection.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

The collection keeps internal link to the classifier, shares resources with it and stays valid even if the classifier object itself gets destroyed.

◆ Instances()

InstanceInfoCollection & Instances ( )
inline

The instances contained in this training set.

Returns
The instance info collection.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

The collection keeps internal link to the classifier, shares resources with it and stays valid even if the classifier object itself gets destroyed.

As a side effect this function sets the IsModified flag to false, if the training set was saved successfully.
