While it is running, you can already get an +impression, whether the classifier will be suitable or if you need to improve +the training set and/or parameters. +.PP +In the output: +.TP +.RB \(aq POS: \(aq +shows the hitrate in the set of training samples (should be equal or near to +.I 1.0 +as in stage 0) +.TP +.RB \(aq NEG: \(aq +indicates the false alarm rate (should reach at least +.I 5*10-6 +to be a usable classifier for real world applications) +.PP +If one of the above values gets +.IR 0 " (" zero ")" +there is an overflow. In this case the false alarm rate is so low, that +further training doesn't make sense anymore, so it can be stopped. + + +.SH OPTIONS +.PP +.B opencv\-haartraining +supports the following options: + +.PP +.TP +.BI "\-data " dir_name +The directory in which the trained classifier is stored. + +.TP +.BI "\-vec " vec_file_name +The file name of the positive samples file (e.g. created by the +.BR opencv\-createsamples (1) +utility). + +.TP +.BI "\-bg " background_file_name +The background description file (the negative sample set). It contains a list +of images into which randomly distorted versions of the object are pasted for +positive sample generation. + +.TP +.BI "\-npos " number_of_positive_samples +The number of positive samples used in training of each classifier stage. +The default is +.IR 2000 . + + +.TP +.BI "\-nneg " number_of_negative_samples +The number of negative samples used in training of each classifier stage. +The default is +.IR 2000 . + +.PP +Reasonable values are +.BR "\-npos 7000 \-nneg 3000" . + +.TP +.BI "\-nstages " number_of_stage +The number of stages to be trained.

The more memory you have the faster the training process is. +The default is +.IR 200 . + +.TP +.B \-sym, \-nonsym +Specify whether the object class under training has vertical symmetry or not. +Vertical symmetry speeds up training process and reduces memory usage.
