real-time face detection by Paul Viola and Michael Jones
2001
computer chips were very slow but still able to do face detection in near real-time
2006- after 5 years
Fujifilme rolled out the first digital camera that has a real-time face detector
very rapid transfer from basic science research to real world application
feature object recognition
SIFT feature by David Lowe
match features than the entire object
Spatial Pyramid Matching
take features from different parts of image and in different resolutions and put them together in a feature descriptor and then support vector machine algorithm on top of that
machine learning algorithms:
graphical model, support vector machine, adaboost
bounding box/ image captioning
convolutional neuron network was a breakthrough(not invented) in 2012
1998 first invented for recognizing digits
why develop so fast recently?
Increasing computation/ available labeled datasets
