چکیده

A multistage approach to gray-level corner detection is proposed in this paper, which is based on fast corner extraction using the Plessey corner detector combined with CMOS image acquisition technologies and localization refinement using a spatial subpixel analysis approach. The proposed corner detector detects corners as the intersection points of the involved edges, only by using a small neighborhood of the estimated corner position. With this approach it is also possible to compute the corner orientation and the dihedral angle of the corner. In comparison to the standard Plessey detector, which can show localization errors of several pixels, experimental results show an average error of only 0.36 pixels for our algorithm.

Morphological Corner Detection. Application to Camera Calibration

In this paper we study the application of the Affine Morphological Scale Space (AMSS) to corner detection with subpixel precision. Corner detection techniques are in general very sensitive to noise, so some kind of filtering is usually needed to remove noise before estimating the corner location, however, the filtering procedure changes the location of the corner, so the filtering introduce err...

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...

Comparison of Subpixel Corner Detection Based on Reprojection Error Criterion

This paper deals with conception of subpixel detection where the focus on accuracy of corner points detection is a goal. Specifically there is traditional Harris corner detector together with two subpixel approaches compared. The first approach is based on the orthogonal vector theory while the other one is refining coordinates by fitting quadratic curves over usual cornerness map. As the proce...

Subpixel Eye Gaze Tracking

This paper addresses the accuracy problem of an eye gaze tracking system. We first analyze the technical barrier for a gaze tracking system to achieve desired accuracy, and then propose a subpixel tracking method to break the barrier. We present new algorithms for detecting the inner eye corner and the center of an iris in subpixel accuracy, and we apply these new methods in developing a real-t...
