recog_test

PURPOSE ^

Test the performance of behavior recognition using the cuboid representation.

SYNOPSIS ^

function [ER,CMS] = recog_test( DATASETS, k, nreps )

DESCRIPTION ^

 Test the performance of behavior recognition using the cuboid representation.

 Given n sets of data, each containing multiple data instances, we train on 1 set at a
 time, and then test on each of the remaining sets.  Thus there are (n x n) separate
 training/testing scenarios. [Note: to get performance on set i given training on i we
 use cross validation WITHIN the set].   Note that this is not cross validation where
 training occurs on all but (n-1) of the sets and testing on the remaining one, giving a
 total of (n) training/testing scenarios.  

 Clustering is performed (using recog_cluster) on cuboids from the single training set.
 Once the clustering is obtained, each cuboid in all the clips in all the sets is
 assigned a type and each clip is converted to a histogram of cuboid types (using
 recog_clipsdesc).  Afterwards standard classification techniques are used to train/test.

 Parameters for clustering and classification can be specified inside this file.

 INPUTS
   DATASETS    - array of structs, should have the fields:
           .IDX        - length N vector of clip types
           .desc       - length N cell vector of cuboid descriptors
           .ncilps     - N: number of clips
   k           - number of clusters
   nreps       - number of repetitions
   
 OUTPUTS
   ER      - error matricies [nsets x nsets] - averaged over nreps
   CMS     - confusion matricies [nclass x nclass x nsets x nsets] - averaged over nreps
