Multi-resolution feature description for object recognition

Abstract:

Techniques and systems are provided for determining features for one or more objects in one or more video frames. For example, an image of an object, such as a face, can be received, and features of the object in the image can be identified. A size of the object can be determined based on the image, for example based on inter-eye distance of a face. Based on the size, either a high-resolution set of features or a low-resolution set of features is selected to compare to the features of the object. The object can be identified by matching the features of the object to matching features from the selected set of features.
