Overview of state-of-the-art image object detection and classification approaches

Abstract

Problem of object detection and classification has always been a pretty complex and current topic in the computer vision area. A proper solution of this problem will give us a lot of different quality of life improvements. First of all it’s a huge enhancement in the automotive area, manufacturing automation, city traffic control, different kinds of tasks related to children activity monitoring, and this list can be extended even further. Under the “proper” word we mean that object detection and classification algorithms should have good accuracy, ability to process data in real time and save accuracy with some noises, work with low quality input images, and different lighting.
