چکیده

Understanding the number of people and the flow of the persons is useful for efficient promotion of the institution managements and company’s sales improvements. This paper introduces an automated method for counting passerby using virtualvertical measurement lines. The process of recognizing a passerby is carried out using an image sequence obtained from the USB camera. Space-time image is representing the human regions which are treated using the segmentation process. To handle the problem of mismatching, different color space are used to perform the template matching which chose automatically the best matching to determine passerby direction and speed. A relation between passerby speed and the human-pixel area is used to distinguish one or two passersby. In the experiment, the camera is fixed at the entrance door of the hall in a side viewing position. Finally, experimental results verify the effectiveness of the presented method by correctly detecting and successfully counting them in order to direction with accuracy of 97%. Keywords—counting passersby, virtual-vertical measurement line, passerby speed, space-time image

Accuracy improvement of Best Scanline Search Algorithms for Object to Image Transformation of Linear Pushbroom Imagery

Unlike the frame type images, back-projection of ground points onto the 2D image space is not a straightforward process for the linear pushbroom imagery. In this type of images, best scanline search problem complicates image processing using Collinearity equation from computational point of view in order to achieve reliable exterior orientation parameters. In recent years, new best scanline sea...

Optimizing Disparity Candidates Space in Dense Stereo Matching

In this paper, a new approach for optimizing disparity candidates space is proposed for the solution of dense stereo matching problem. The main objectives of this approachare the reduction of average number of disparity candidates per pixel with low computational cost and high assurance of retaining the correct answer. These can be realized due to the effective use of multiple radial windows, i...

Online Streaming Feature Selection Using Geometric Series of the Adjacency Matrix of Features

Feature Selection (FS) is an important pre-processing step in machine learning and data mining. All the traditional feature selection methods assume that the entire feature space is available from the beginning. However, online streaming features (OSF) are an integral part of many real-world applications. In OSF, the number of training examples is fixed while the number of features grows with t...
