We describe and implement several teacher and learner-driven approaches that require different levels of teacher competencies and consider different types of knowledge for selection of training samples. The experimental results show that the active learning approach outperforms the passive one and that the adaptation of the learning process to the learner’s knowledge significantly improves the learning performance.}, author = {Danijel Sko\v{c}aj and Matja\v{z} Majnik and Matej Kristan and Ale\v{s} Leonardis}, month = {Feb}, year = {2012}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2012 Computer Vision Winter Workshop (CVWW)} }
