چکیده

Todays vehicles are more and more equipped with video cameras. These cameras are used e.g. for lane and parking assist systems. For the localization of the vehicle in the world the Global Positioning System is widely used. Unfortunately, GPS is very imprecise and insufficient for many driver assistance applications. To overcome this limitation, a more precise localization using a different approach has to be found. High quality localization sensors are already available on the market but still too expensive for mass integration in automobiles. The aim is to extract additional information from already established car equipment and to use it for precise localization. Our approach combines map information with extracted image features using a model based algorithm.

SVM-based Human Cell Detection Technique using Histograms of Oriented Gradients

An automatic human cell detection system is proposed in this article. Histograms of Oriented Gradients are used for cell feature extraction. A robust search procedure, using variable sized sliding windows, is performed for cell localization in grayscale images. The proposed sliding-window based search algorithm is used in combination with a non-linear SVM-based feature vector classification tec...

Automated Colorization of Grayscale Images Using Texture Descriptors

A novel example-based process for automated colorization of grayscale images using texture descriptors (ACTD) without any human intervention is proposed. By analyzing a set of sample color images, coherent regions of homogeneous textures are extracted. A multi-channel filtering technique is used for texture-based image segmentation. For each area of interest, state of the art texture descriptor...

Improved Wavelet Feature Extraction Methods Based on HSV Space for Vehicle Detection

The focus of this work is on the problem of feature extraction for vehicle detection. Feature extraction is a key point of pattern recognition. In particular, we propose using improved wavelet feature extraction approaches based on HSV space for rear-vehicle detection. Wavelet features are attractive for vehicle detection because they form a compact representation, encode edges, capture informa...
