Ow no, there is a difference between numNeg and the actual number of negative images. The first one is about windows, the second one is the images where these windows are sampled from. That being said, stage 0 takes for example 1000 windows as negative due to numNeg set to 1000. In the second stage 1, the classifier will have to find again 1000 negatives, but the ones that are not yet classified as negatives by stage 0. In general that means that at least half of the previous samples can be reused (due too maxFalseAlarmRate) but that we then need to continue searching for new samples. That is why getting new samples takes longr and longer in following subsequential stages.
