چکیده

In recent years, visual surveillance has gained importance in security, law enforcement and military applications. Due to the wide use of video surveillance systems, the amount of data that has to be monitored and interpreted has increased enormously. Nowadays, the pure mass of information that has to be handled by the operators of such systems has overgrown their capabilities. It is therefore crucial to support human operators with (semi-)automatic surveillance systems which notify their supervisors in case of an incident potentially relevant to security. In this paper, we present a tracking/surveillance system that supports a human operator by automatically detecting abandoned objects and drawing the operator’s attention to such events. It consists of two major parts: A Bayesian multi-people tracker that explains as much of the scene as possible and a blob-based object detection system that identifies abandoned objects using the unexplained image parts. If a potentially abandoned object is detected, the operator is notified and the system provides the appropriate key frames for interpreting the incident.

Kohonen Self Organizing for Automatic Identification of Cartographic Objects

Automatic identification and localization of cartographic objects in aerial and satellite images have gained increasing attention in recent years in digital photogrammetry and remote sensing. Although the automatic extraction of man made objects in essence is still an unresolved issue, the man made objects can be extracted from aerial photos and satellite images. Recently, the high-resolution s...

Moving Objects Tracking Using Statistical Models

Object detection plays an important role in successfulness of a wide range of applications that involve images as input data. In this paper we have presented a new approach for background modeling by nonconsecutive frames differencing. Direction and velocity of moving objects have been extracted in order to get an appropriate sequence of frames to perform frame subtraction. Stationary parts of ...

Online multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes

Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language

Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...
