Title of the lecture: Learning-Based Metrics for Object Recognition
Keywords: Metric learning, object recognition, object detection, deep learning
Summary: Optical object recognition is a fundamental task in computer vision. This lecture provides an overview of object recognition and detection, tracing the evolution from early handcrafted methods to today’s advanced learning-based and multimodal models. Special emphasis is placed on metric learning as a key approach within modern recognition systems. The session concludes with a case study demonstrating a multimodal technique for enhancing medical pill recognition by integrating visual features with descriptive textual information.
