چکیده

In this paper we present a robust real-time method for tracking multiple people from multiple cameras. Our method uses both static and Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) cameras. The static cameras are used to locate people in the scene, while the PTZ cameras “lock-on” to the individuals and provide visual attention. The system provides consistency in tracking between PTZ cameras and works reliably well when people occlude each other. The underlying visual processes rely on color segmentation, movement tracking and shape information to locate target candidates and color indexing methods to register these candidates with the PTZ cameras.

Online multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes

Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...

Tracking Multiple People Under Occlusion Using Multiple Cameras

We describe a system for tracking multiple people with multiple cameras based on fusion of multiple cues. Face trackers are used to self-calibrate our system. Epipolar geometry and landmarks are employed to disambiguate the tracking problem. The correlation of visual information between different cameras is learnt using Support Vector Regression and Hierarchical Principal Component Analysis to ...

Tracking Pedestrians Across Multiple Cameras via Partial Relaxation of Spatio-Temporal Constraint and Utilization of Route Cue

We tackle multiple people tracking across multiple non-overlapping surveillance cameras installed in a wide area. Existing methods attempt to track people across cameras by utilizing appearance features and spatio-temporal cues to re-identify people across adjacent cameras. However, in relatively wide public areas like a shopping mall, since many people may walk and stay arbitrarily, the spatio...

Camera Handoff: Tracking in Multiple Uncalibrated Stationary Cameras

Multiple cameras are needed to completely cover an environment for monitoring activity. To track people successfully in multiple perspective imagery, one needs to establish correspondence between objects captured in multiple cameras. We present a system for tracking people in multiple uncalibrated cameras. The system is able to discover spatial relationships between the camera field of views an...

A System for Tracking and Recognizing Multiple People with Multiple Cameras

In this paper we present a robust real-time method for tracking and recognizing multiple people with multiple cameras. Our method uses both static and Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) cameras to provide visual attention. The PTZ camera system uses face recognition to register people in the scene and “lock-on” to those individuals. The static camera system provides a global view of the environment and is use...
