A Re-evaluation of Pedestrian Detection on Riemannian Manifolds
Boosting covariance data on Riemannian manifolds has proven to be a convenient strategy in a pedestrian detection context. In this paper we show that the detection performances of the state-of-the-art approach of Tuzel et al. [7] can be greatly improved, from both a computational and a qualitative point of view, by considering practical and theoretical issues, and allowing also the estimation of occlusions in a fine way. The resulting detection system reaches the best performance on the INRIA dataset, setting novel state-of-the art results.
