Abstract

A method for detecting an object in an image includes calculating a log L likelihood of pairs of pixels at select positions in the image that are derived from training images. The calculated log L likelihood of the pairs of pixels is compared with a threshold value. The object is detected when the calculated log L likelihood is greater than the threshold value.
