Abstract

In this paper we present a complete framework for scene categorization that builds upon and extends several recent ideas including spatial pyramid representation and a variety of base local descriptors which have different discriminative power and invariance from task to task. Furthermore, we propose two strategies: sum-max and max-max, used to effectively combine diverse source of data in a unified setting way. Our approach shows significantly improved performance on a large, challenging data set of fifteen natural scene categories. Owing to combination of complementary information cues, our approach is expected to equally applicable to a range of tasks.
