Revision history [back]

I followed the tutorial in the Link I new in working with cascade classifier. So i tried training with 10 positive and 6 negative images for first time ( I read that it is not enough and for robust detection we need to train minimum of 500 samples).

1. I put the positive and negative samples in separate folders.
2. I created two txt files with path and name of file.

3. I created the .vec file using

   "C:\opencv\build\x86\vc10\bin\opencv_createsamples.exe -info positivenew.txt -vec samples.vec -w 50 -h 35 PAUSE"

4) I verified the samples using

C:\opencv\build\x64\vc10\bin\opencv_createsamples.exe  -vec samples.vec -w 50 -h 35 PAUSE

all works well upto this stage.

5) when i train the classifier using

C:\opencv\build\x64\vc10\bin\opencv_haartraining.exe -data class -vec samples.vec -bg Negativenew.txt -npos 10 -nneg 6 -nstages 7 -nonsym -minhitrate 0.998 -maxfalsealarm 0.5 -mem 1024 -mode ALL -w 50 -h 35

the following process was done

The output in the class directory contains many folders with names from 0,1,2,3...6 with files "AdaBoostCARTHaarClassifier.txt " with the content like this

but no *.xml file is found in output directory. Where did i do the mistake? Please help me in this.
