Claim:
1. A system comprising: an input component configured to receive one or more images; a feature extractor configured to extract features for one or more objects in the one or more images, the extracted features comprising at least one view-independent feature, the one or more images comprising a video and the at least one view-independent feature comprising a level of deformation of at least one of the objects in the video, the level of deformation being determined utilizing differences of histograms of oriented gradients; an object classifier configured to classify the one or more objects based at least in part on the extracted features and one or more object classification parameters; an adaptation component configured to adjust the classification of at least one of the objects based on one or more contextual parameters; and a calibration tool configured to adjust one or more of the object classification parameters based on likelihoods for characteristics associated with one or more object classes, the likelihoods comprising a location likelihood and a size likelihood, the location likelihood indicating that probability of a given object class at a given location in an image and the size likelihood indicating the probability of a given object size for a given object class and a given object location in the image; wherein the input component, feature extractor, object classifier, adaptation component and calibration tool are implemented using at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory.
