Abstract

Disclosed herein is an improved method for identifying images containing objects-of-interest from a large set of images. The method comprises mixing two or more of the images to create a grouped image and exposing the grouped image to an object detector trained on grouped images to make an initial determination that the grouped image was formed from at least one image containing an object-of-interest. The images which formed the grouped image are then exposed to regular object detectors to determine a classification of the object-of-interest.
