Multi-Agent Framework in Visual Sensor Networks

Multi-Agent Framework in Visual Sensor Networks

The recent interest in the surveillance of public, military, and commercial scenarios is increasing the need to develop and deploy intelligent and/or automated distributed visual surveillance systems. Many applications based on distributed resources use the socalled software agent technology. In this paper, a multi-agent framework is applied to coordinate videocamera-based surveillance. The abi...

Coverage Quality in Visual Sensor Networks

Improving Energy-Efficient Target Coverage in Visual Sensor Networks

Target coverage is one of the important problems in visual sensor networks. The coverage should be accompanied with an efficient use of energy in order to increase the network lifetime. In this paper, we address the maximum lifetime for visual sensor networks (MLV) problem by maximizing the network lifetime while covering all the targets. For this purpose, we develop a simulated annealing (SA) ...

Feature compression: A framework for multi-view multi-person tracking in visual sensor networks

Visual sensor networks (VSNs) consist of image sensors, embedded processors and wireless transceivers which are powered by batteries. Since the energy and bandwidth resources are limited, setting up a tracking system in VSNs is a challenging problem. In this paper, we present a framework for human tracking in VSNs. The traditional approach of sending compressed images to a central node has cert...
