Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and apparatus for training an image classifier. The method includes: A. dividing a set of training images for classifier training into a positive-example sample set and at least two negative-example sample sets; B. determining, for each negative-example sample set, a feature set for differentiating the positive-example sample set from the negative-example sample set; and C. performing training using each feature set determined to obtain a classifier. This invention also provides a method and apparatus for image recognition utilizing the image classifier.
