Improving pedestrian detection using MPEG-7 descriptors
نویسندگان
چکیده
During the last decade, modern Pedestrian Detection Systems made massive use of the steadily growing numbers of high-performance image acquisition sensors. Within our naturalistic driving environment, a lot of different and heterogeneous scenes occur that are caused by varying illumination and weather conditions. Unfortunately, current systems do not work properly under these hardened conditions. The aim of this article is to investigate and evaluate observed video scenes from an open source dataset by using various image features in order to create a basis for robust and more accurate object detection.

Object Re-detection Using SIFT and MPEG-7 Color Descriptors
Information about the occurrence of objects in videos and their interactions conveys an important part of the semantics of audiovisual content and can be used to narrow the semantic gap in video analysis, retrieval and summarization. Object re-detection, which aims at finding occurrences of specific objects in a single video or a collection of still images and videos, is an object identificatio...
متن کاملSpeaker recognition using MPEG-7 descriptors
Our purpose is to evaluate the efficiency of MPEG-7 audio descriptors for speaker recognition. The upcoming MPEG-7 standard provides audio feature descriptors, which are useful for many applications. One example application is a speaker recognition system, in which reduced-dimension log-spectral features based on MPEG-7 descriptors are used to train hidden Markov models for individual speakers....

This paper exploits the novelty detection technique towards identifying hazardous situations. The proposed system elaborates on the audio part of the PROMETHEUS database which includes heterogeneous recordings and was captured under real-world conditions. Three types of environments were used: smart-home, indoors public space and outdoors public space. The multidomain set of descriptors was for...
متن کاملApplication of MPEG-7 descriptors for content-based indexing of sports videos
The amount of multimedia data available worldwide is increasing every day. There is a vital need to annotate multimedia data in order to allow universal content access and to provide content-based search-and-retrieval functionalities. Since supervised video annotation can be time consuming, an automatic solution is appreciated. We review recent approaches to content-based indexing and annotatio...
متن کاملUsing MPEG-7 Descriptors in Image Retrieval with Self-Organizing Maps
The MPEG-7 standard is emerging as both a general framework for content description and a collection of specific, agreed-upon content descriptors. We have developed a neural, self-organizing technique for content-based image retrieval. In this paper, we apply the visual content descriptors provided by MPEG-7 in our PicSOM system and compare our own image indexing technique with a reference meth...
