% BRIEF :
%   Given a weight vector w obtained by training a model with DPM HOG features, 
%   positive and negative components are displayed separately
% 
% INPUT :
%    w       --  weight vector of model
%    settings
%            --  (optional), struct with possible fields, e.g.,
%                'b_closeImg', ...
% 
% OUTPUT :
%    out     -- (optional), the resulting image of visualized model
