Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method for learning a view-specific object detector, the method comprising executing on a central processing unit the steps of: determining a position of a horizon in a target camera viewpoint scene; determining a motion direction for an object within an image of the target camera viewpoint scene; determining a zenith angle for a pose of the object within the target scene relative to the estimated target camera viewpoint scene horizon; determining an azimuth angle for a pose of the object within the target scene relative to the determined motion direction for the object within the image of the target camera viewpoint scene; and selecting one of a plurality of built detectors for recognizing objects in video data, as a function of the selected built detector having an associated cluster zenith angle that best matches the zenith angle determined for the pose of the object relative to cluster zenith angles that are associated with each of others of the plurality of built detectors, and an associated cluster azimuth angle that best matches the azimuth angle determined for the pose of the object relative to azimuth angles associated with each of the others of the plurality of built detectors.
