چکیده

This report describes the first stage in solving the structure from motion problem, which is to detect feature points and track them from frame to frame. A number of detectors from the literature, as well as some specially developed detectors, are assessed using a fly-over sequence of Parafield control tower. It is found by this measure that the Harris detector is the best of the conventional detectors, and that two new detectors (the Generalised Hough transform and covariance tracking based methods) appear to give even better results for many cases. Finally, a method for detecting corners by fusing the outputs of numerous detectors is described. APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE

Analysis and Synthesis of Facial Expressions by Feature-Points Tracking and Deformable Model

Face expression recognition is useful for designing new interactive devices offering the possibility of new ways for human to interact with computer systems. In this paper we develop a facial expressions analysis and synthesis system. The analysis part of the system is based on the facial features extracted from facial feature points (FFP) in frontal image sequences. Selected facial feature poi...

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language

Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...

A New Method for Eye Detection in Color Images

The problem of eye detection in face images is very important for a large number of applications ranging from face recognition to gaze tracking. In this paper we propose a new algorithm for eyes detection. First, the face region is extracted from the image by skin-color information. Second, horizontal projection in image is used to approximate region of the eye be obtained . At last, the eye ce...

Real-Time Visual Object Discovery for Tracking Using Motion and Depth Data

The ultimate goal of our method is to be able to discover and track any object in any scene with minimal prior knowledge. This semester thesis focuses on a real-time implementation that uses motion and depth as cues to discover objects. More precisely, feature points are detected using the minimum eigenvalue corner detector and calculate the optical flow of these points by applying the Lucas-Ka...
