Talk:Object recognition

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Requested move

Single object recognition → Object recognition — The term 'object recognition' is used much more often in computer vision literature and it usually implies 'single object recognition'. Currently the article object recognition redirect to computer vision, which is not good. — Andreas Kaufmann (talk)

I agree on moving this article to object recognition. Tpl (talk) 11:03, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Misleading

The article is very misleading. Object recognition is a huge area of research within image processing and computer vision. To talk about one person I've never heard of (no offensive David) kind of gives the wrong impression. The entry should be about object recognition in general rather than talk about one person and his patented method. Doc phil (talk) 12:44, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I completely agree. David Lowe's SIFT method has become quite popular, but there are many object recognition approaches that do not use it, and object recognition as a field existed for decades before his paper. 69.202.71.61 (talk) 05:43, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree too. I am currently working on object recognition, and the following methods should be mentioned: geometric hashing, local geometric hashing, vocabulary tree... not to mention that there are many other descriptors that are better than SIFT. --131.113.66.200 (talk) 02:51, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm a computer vision researcher, and I think this article would be better off deleted. David Lowe is an important and accomplished researcher, but this article reads like an advertisement or biography of his object recognition approaches. If this article wants to objectively mention some of the state of the art methods in object recognition it should look at the PASCAL VOC challenge or the top performers on the MSRC object recognition database. 128.2.184.59 (talk) 17:37, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
