چکیده

Extraction of visual descriptors is a crucial problem for stateof-the-art visual information analysis. In this paper, we present a knowledgebased approach for detection of visual objects in video sequences, extraction of visual descriptors and matching with pre-defined objects. The proposed approach models objects through their visual descriptors defined in MPEG7. It first extracts moving regions using an efficient active contours technique. It then computes visual descriptions of the moving regions including color, motion and shape features that are invariant to affine transformations. The extracted features are matched to a-priori knowledge about the objects’ descriptions, using appropriately defined matching functions. Results are presented which illustrate the theoretical developments.

Object Tracking Using Adaptive Covariance Descriptor and Clustering-Based Model Updating for Visual Surveillance

We propose a novel approach for tracking an arbitrary object in video sequences for visual surveillance. The first contribution of this work is an automatic feature extraction method that is able to extract compact discriminative features from a feature pool before computing the region covariance descriptor. As the feature extraction method is adaptive to a specific object of interest, we refer...

Weighted multi-view key-frame extraction

The extraction of representative key-frames from video shots is very important in video processing and analysis, since it constitutes the basis for several important tasks such as video shot summarization, browsing and retrieval as well as high-level video segmentation. The extracted key-frames should capture a great percentage of the information of a shot content, while at the same time they s...
