DESCRIPTION:Object detection involves classification of a huge number of d
 etection windows obtained by raster scanning of an input image.\nIn this t
 alk\, we introduce binary approximation to accelerate the computation of l
 inear SVM for multi-class classification task.\nSince the proposed method 
 can replace real-valued inner-product with binary inner-product computatio
 ns\, it's about 200 times faster than the conventional SVM classifiers.\nW
 e also show that the proposed approach can be extended to enable fast comp
 utation of existing deep neural network models and decrease model size wit
 hout the need for retraining.
