Member Function Documentation

◆ learn()

cvb.minos.Classifier learn (   self,
cvb.minos.TrainingSet  training_set 
)

Learn a new classifier from the training_set using the parameters stored in the properties of this object.

Parameters

training_set : cvb.minos.TrainingSet Training set from which to learn.

Returns

cvb.minos.Classifier Newly learned classifier object.

Property Documentation

◆ contrast_trigger

contrast_trigger = property
static

int: Minimum contrast a Minos feature must achieve, before it is eligible to become part of the classifier.

Lower values will lead to a classifier that is more sensitive in low-contrast situation but might also increase the number of false positive results that need to be filtered out for example by means of their quality measure.

◆ ensemble_size

ensemble_size = property
static

int: Maximum size of the Ensembles of similar instance images to be used for pair feature calculation.

Valid ensemble sizes must be greater than 0, the default value is 15.

◆ negative_density

negative_density = property
static

float: Scan density with which to extract counter samples from the training set images.

Higher densities will lead to a classifier, that is potentially more robust versus false positive detections, but will also result in increased learning times.

◆ polydromy

polydromy = property
static

int: Polydromy value controlling the complexity of the feature search tree in the classifier.

Valid polydromy values must be greater than 0, the default value is 2.
