Relevance Detection of Unknown Classes through Cluster Distances: Based on Statistical Distance Measures in Feature Space

In the open world, machine learning (ML) models can encounter a multitude of unknown or novel classes. In a surveillance, safety, or security use case, unknown samples can pose potential threats that are hard to detect since those samples have never been trained on. At the same time, most of the unknowns that will be encountered by a...

In the field of ecology, camera traps are important tools to collect information on the wildlife of certain areas. The problem that arises with many camera traps is that they can collect more images than a human can realistically go trough all by themselves. To help classify these images computer vision is proposed as an alternative to manual...
