One of the most labor intensive aspects of developing ac- curate
visual object detectors using machine learning is to gather sufficient amount
of labeled examples. We develop a selective sampling method, based on
boosting, which dra- matically reduces the amount of human labor required for
this task. We apply this method to the problem of detecting pedestrians from a
video camera mounted on a moving car. We demonstrate how combining boosting
and active learn- ing achieves high levels of detection accuracy in complex
and variable backgrounds.
