Abstract

The invention relates to a method and an object detection device for analyzing objects in the environment and/or scenes in the environment. The object detection device includes a data processing and/or evaluation device. In the data processing and/or evaluation device, image data (xt) is evaluated on the basis of a Conditional Random Field (CRF) model and the CRF model provides additional object nodes (otn) which take into account information from an object detector.
