Abstract
Training data object images are clustered as a function of motion direction attributes and resized from respective original into same aspect ratios. Motionlet detectors are learned for each of the sets from features extracted from the resized object blobs. A deformable sliding window is applied to detect an object blob in input by varying window size, shape or aspect ratio to conform to a shape of the detected input video object blob. A motion direction of an underlying image patch of the detected input video object blob is extracted and motionlet detectors selected and applied that have similar motion directions. An object is thus detected within the detected blob and semantic attributes of an underlying image patch extracted if a motionlet detectors fires, the extracted semantic attributes available for use for searching for the detected object.
