A Computer Vision Method for Motion Detection Using Cooperative Kalman Filters
نویسنده
چکیده
In th.is paper, we d~scribe a method for the computation of the optical flow in a sequence of images acq~Ired by a. mo~mg camera. The method is guided by the simultaneous satisfaction of two opposIte constramts mtroduced by the regularization process used to remove the underdetermination related to the aperture phenomenon. Two cooperative Kalman filters are used which allow us to compute the motion information present in the images. Such a method is particularly well suited to deal with outdoor scenes and some real experiments are presented which highlight its validity.

Motion detection by a moving observer using Kalman filter and neural network in soccer robot
In many autonomous mobile applications, robots must be capable of analyzing motion of moving objects in their environment. Duringmovement of robot the quality of images is affected by quakes of camera which cause high errors in image processing outputs. In thispaper, we propose a novel method to effectively overcome this problem using Neural Networks and Kalman Filtering theory. Thistechnique u...
متن کاملTracking a Non-Cooperative Target Using Real-Time Stereovision-Based Control: An Experimental Study
Tracking a non-cooperative target is a challenge, because in unfamiliar environments most targets are unknown and unspecified. Stereovision is suited to deal with this issue, because it allows to passively scan large areas and estimate the relative position, velocity and shape of objects. This research is an experimental effort aimed at developing, implementing and evaluating a real-time non-co...
متن کاملA 3D Feature-Based Tracker for Tracking Multiple Moving Objects with a Controlled Binocular Head
Object tracking is an important task for active vision and robotics. This paper presents a 3D feature-based tracker for tracking multiple moving objects with a computer-controlled binocular head. Our tracker operates in two phases: an initialization phase and a tracking phase. In the initial-ization phase, correspondence between 2D features in the first stereo image pair is determined reliably ...

Gamma-ray detection has an important role in the enhancement the nuclear safety and provides a proper environment for applications of nuclear radiation. To reduce the risk of exposure, aerial gamma survey is commonly used as an advantage of the distance between the detection system and the radiation sources. One of the most important issues in aerial gamma survey is the detection noise. Various...
