/** @defgroup dpm Deformable Part-based Models

Discriminatively Trained Part Based Models for Object Detection
---------------------------------------------------------------

The object detector described below has been initially proposed by P.F. Felzenszwalb in
@cite Felzenszwalb2010a . It is based on a Dalal-Triggs detector that uses a single filter on histogram
of oriented gradients (HOG) features to represent an object category. This detector uses a sliding
window approach, where a filter is applied at all positions and scales of an image. The first
innovation is enriching the Dalal-Triggs model using a star-structured part-based model defined by a
"root" filter (analogous to the Dalal-Triggs filter) plus a set of parts filters and associated
deformation models. The score of one of star models at a particular position and scale within an
image is the score of the root filter at the given location plus the sum over parts of the maximum,
over placements of that part, of the part filter score on its location minus a deformation cost
easuring the deviation of the part from its ideal location relative to the root. Both root and part
filter scores are defined by the dot product between a filter (a set of weights) and a subwindow of
a feature pyramid computed from the input image. Another improvement is a representation of the
class of models by a mixture of star models. The score of a mixture model at a particular position
and scale is the maximum over components, of the score of that component model at the given
location.

The detector was dramatically speeded-up with cascade algorithm proposed by P.F. Felzenszwalb in
@cite Felzenszwalb2010b . The algorithm prunes partial hypotheses using thresholds on their scores.The
basic idea of the algorithm is to use a hierarchy of models defined by an ordering of the original
model's parts. For a model with (n+1) parts, including the root, a sequence of (n+1) models is
obtained. The i-th model in this sequence is defined by the first i parts from the original model.
Using this hierarchy, low scoring hypotheses can be pruned after looking at the best configuration
of a subset of the parts. Hypotheses that score high under a weak model are evaluated further using
a richer model.

In OpenCV there is an C++ implementation of DPM cascade detector.
