Abstract
A computer implemented method for object detection includes providing a spatio-temporal model for an object to be detected, providing a video including a plurality of images including the object, and measuring the object as a collection of components in each image. The method further includes determining a probability that the object is in each image, and detecting the object in any image upon comparing the probabilities for each image to a threshold for detecting the object.
