Object class detection, also known as category-level object detection, has become one of the most focused areas in computer vision in the new century. This article attempts to provide a comprehensive survey of the recent technical achievements in this area of research. More than 270 major publications are included in this survey covering different aspects of the research, which include: (i) problem description: key tasks and challenges; (ii) core techniques: appearance modeling, localization strategies, and supervised classification methods; (iii) evaluation issues: approaches, metrics, standard datasets, and state-of-the-art results; and (iv) new development: particularly new approaches and applications motivated by the recent boom of social images. Finally, in retrospect of what has been achieved so far, the survey also discusses what the future may hold for object class detection research.

Recommendations
Unsupervised object discovery via self-organisation
Object discovery in visual object categorisation (VOC) is the problem of automatically assigning class labels to objects appearing in given images. To achieve state-of-the-art results in this task, a large set of positive and negative training images ...
From Images to Shape Models for Object Detection
We present an object class detection approach which fully integrates the complementary strengths offered by shape matchers. Like an object detector, it can learn class models directly from images, and can localize novel instances in the presence of ...
Scalable multi-class object detection
CVPR '11: Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern RecognitionScalability of object detectors with respect to the number of classes is a very important issue for applications where many object classes need to be detected. While combining single-class detectors yields a linear complexity for testing, multi-class ...
