-<h1><span lang=EN-US>Rapid Object Detection With A Cascade of Boosted
-Classifiers Based on Haar-like Features</span></h1>
-
-<h2><span lang=EN-US>Introduction</span></h2>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>This document describes how to train and
-use a cascade of boosted classifiers for rapid object detection. A large set of
-over-complete haar-like features provide the basis for the simple individual
-classifiers. Examples of object detection tasks are face, eye and nose
-detection, as well as logo detection. </span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> </span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The sample detection task in this document
-is logo detection, since logo detection does not require the collection of
-large set of registered and carefully marked object samples. Instead we assume
-that from one prototype image, a very large set of derived object examples can
-be derived (</span><span class=Typewch><span lang=EN-US>createsamples</span></span><span
-lang=EN-US> utility, see below).</span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> </span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>A detailed description of the training/evaluation
-algorithm can be found in [1] and [2].</span></p>
-
-<h2><span lang=EN-US>Samples Creation</span></h2>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>For training a training samples must be
-collected. There are two sample types: negative samples and positive samples.
-Negative samples correspond to non-object images. Positive samples correspond
-to object images.</span></p>
-
-<h3><span lang=EN-US>Negative Samples</span></h3>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Negative samples are taken from arbitrary
-images. These images must not contain object representations. Negative samples
-are passed through background description file. It is a text file in which each
-text line contains the filename (relative to the directory of the description
-file) of negative sample image. This file must be created manually. Note that
-the negative samples and sample images are also called background samples or
-background samples images, and are used interchangeably in this document</span></p>

-<h3><span lang=EN-US>Positive Samples</span></h3>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Positive samples are created by </span><span
-class=Typewch><span lang=EN-US>createsamples</span></span><span lang=EN-US>
-utility. They may be created from single object image or from collection of
-previously marked up images.<br>
-<br>
-</span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The single object image may for instance
-contain a company logo. Then are large set of positive samples are created from
-the given object image by randomly rotating, changing the logo color as well as
-placing the logo on arbitrary background.</span></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The amount and range of randomness can be
