Local, Mid-Level and Convolutional Features Fusion Using Multiple Kernel Learning for Image Classification

Feature representation and feature fusion are important factors in image classification problem. In this paper, the local features, mid-level features and convolutional features are combined using the multiple kernel learning method. Experimental results show that the local features, mid-level features and convolutional features can be fused effectively to improve the classification performance about 4%-6% on several popular benchmarks.
