چکیده

This paper addresses a novel approach to recognizing several humans' postures from just a single eigenspace and investigates a practical problem associated with dress changes in recognizing human postures automatically employing an eigenspace technique. A single eigenspace is prepared employing an ordinary man’s several orientations and various humans' postures are recognized from it. The dress effect in the eigenspace arises when a man/woman wears different dresses in the recognition stage employing a conventional parametric eigenspace method. This paper proposes to employ blurred-edge images with proper designing of the parameter of Gausian variance for overcoming the dress effect. We have conducted experiments using several humans' wearing various dresses in a laboratory environment and the approach has shown a satisfactory result.

Recognizing Human Behavior Using Universal Eigenspace

An efficient application of eigenspace technique to recognize human behaviors is described. The present paper investigates two types of recognition, i.e., recognition of an unknown human posture and a particular behavior by identifying human postures among several behaviors. A number of different posture sets from some selected behaviors create universal eigenspace and different sets of unknown...

Human motion recognition using an eigenspace

This paper describes a method for representing and/or recognizing human motion using an eigenspace analysis, referred to a tuned eigenspace, that is responsible for storing various human motions in terms of their sequential postures in an eigenspace and for recognizing unfamiliar posture and/or motion from the tuned eigenspace. We have also analyzed human dress texture problem, caused by wearin...

Moving object recognition in eigenspace representation: gait analysis and lip reading

This paper describes a new method to calculate the spatio-temporal correlation efficiently in a parametric eigenspace representation for moving object recognition. A parametric eigenspace compactly represents the temporal change of an image sequence by a trajectory in the eigenspace. This representation reduces the computational cost of correlation-based comparison between image sequences. Expe...
