چکیده

We present in this paper a system for passengers counting in buses based on stereovision. The objective of this work is to provide a precise counting system and adapted to buses environment. The processing chain corresponding to this counting system involves several blocks dedicated to the detection, segmentation, tracking and counting. From original stereoscopic images, the system operates primarily on the information contained in disparity maps previously calculated with a novel proposed algorithm. We showed that one can obtain a counting accuracy of 99% on a large data set including specific scenarios played in laboratory and on some video sequences shot in a bus during exploitation period.

Real-time passenger counting in buses using dense stereovision

We are interested particularly in the estimation of passenger flows entering or exiting from buses. To achieve this measurement, we propose a counting system based on stereo vision. To extract three-dimensional information in a reliable way, we use a dense stereo-matching procedure in which the winner-takes-all technique minimizes a correlation score. This score is an improved version of the su...

A Simple and Fast Neural Network Approach to Stereovision

A neural network approach to stereovision is presented based on aliasing effects of simple disparity estimators and a fast coherencedetection scheme. Within a single network structure, a dense disparity map with an associated validation map and, additionally, the fused cyclopean view of the scene are available. The network operations are based on simple, biological plausible circuitry; the algo...

Realistic Face Animation for Audiovisual Speech Applications: A Densification Approach Driven by Sparse Stereo Meshes

Being able to produce realistic facial animation is crucial for many speech applications in language learning technologies. Reaching realism needs to acquire and to animate dense 3D models of the face which are often acquired with 3D scanners. However, acquiring the dynamics of the speech from 3D scans is difficult as the acquisition time generally allows only sustained sounds to be recorded. O...
