abstract = "a domain-independent approach to the use of genetic
programming for object detection problems in which the
locations of small objects of multiple classes in large
images must be found. The evolved program is scanned
over the large images to locate the objects of
interest. The paper develops three terminal sets based
on domain-independent pixel statistics and considers
two different function sets. The fitness function is
based on the detection rate and the false alarm rate.
We have tested the method on three object detection
problems of increasing difficulty. This work not only
extends genetic programming to multiclass-object
detection problems, but also shows how to use a single
evolved genetic program for both object classification
and localisation. The object classification map
developed in this approach can be used as a general
classification strategy in genetic programming for
multiple-class classification problems.",
