In various examples, the present disclosure relates to using temporal filters for automated real-time classification. The technology described herein improves the performance of a multiclass classifier that may be used to classify a temporal sequence of input signals—such as input signals representative of video frames. A performance improvement may be achieved, at least in part, by applying a temporal filter to an output of the multiclass classifier. For example, the temporal filter may leverage classifications associated with preceding input signals to improve the final classification given to a subsequent signal. In some embodiments, the temporal filter may also use data from a confusion matrix to correct for the probable occurrence of certain types of classification errors. The temporal filter may be a linear filter, a nonlinear filter, an adaptive filter, and/or a statistical filter. |
