A Bayesian Occlusion Model for Sequential Object Matching
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of locating instances of a known object in a novel scene by matching the fiducial features of the object. Our approach to the problem consists of two parts: a model for the appearance of the features and a model for the shape of the object. We then bind these parts together in a Bayesian framework and match the features sequentially, using the information about the locations of previously matched features. Into this matching system we add a Bayesian model for dealing with features that are not detected due to occlusion or abnormal appearance. Our system yields promising results, losing little matching accuracy even for heavily occluded objects.

Robust sequential view planning for object recognition using multiple cameras
In this thesis the problem of object recognition/pose estimation using active sensing is investigated. It is assumed that multiple cameras acquire images from different view angles of an object belonging to a set of a priori known objects. The eigenspace method is used to process the sensory observations and produce an abstract measurement vector. This step is necessary to avoid the manipulatio...
متن کاملOcclusion Handling with ℓ1-Regularized Sparse Reconstruction
Tracking multi-object under occlusion is a challenging task. When occlusion happens, only the visible part of occluded object can provide reliable information for the matching. In conventional algorithms, the deducing of the occlusion relationship is needed to derive the visible part. However deducing the occlusion relationship is difficult. The interdetermined effect between the occlusion rela...
متن کاملConvolutional Gating Network for Object Tracking
Object tracking through multiple cameras is a popular research topic in security and surveillance systems especially when human objects are the target. However, occlusion is one of the challenging problems for the tracking process. This paper proposes a multiple-camera-based cooperative tracking method to overcome the occlusion problem. The paper presents a new model for combining convolutiona...
متن کاملSequential Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian object matching
In dynamic state-space problems, Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are familiar techniques for obtaining samples from the Bayesian posterior distribution and updating the sample set as new observations arrive. The methods can also be applied in static problems by exposing the observations gradually. In our static object matching problem, we adopt a different approach; all the data is availab...
متن کاملRobust video object tracking via Bayesian model averaging based feature fusion
In this article, we are concerned with tracking an object of interest in video stream. We propose an algorithm that is robust against occlusion, the presence of confusing colors, abrupt changes in the object feature space and changes in object size. We develop the algorithm within a Bayesian modeling framework. The state space model is used for capturing the temporal correlation in the sequence...
