چکیده

This paper describes a method for pedestrian detection, identification and tracking using image information. The method makes use of two cameras with a shared field of view and is robust to changes in illumination and shadows. After a brief calibration process, in which the scene is divided coarsely into planar pieces (which are later optimised), the process requires no interaction and automatically compensates for pairs of cameras with very different optical properties. Individual pedestrians are identified by the novel application of a process similar to the Wiener filter, which we call the regularised inverse filter. Experiments on outdoor scenes demonstrate that the method is robust to changes of illumination and shadows, successfully tracking over 9 out of every 10 pedestrians in challenging conditions.

Pedestrian detection by range imaging

Remote detection by camera offers a versatile means for recording people activities. Relying principally on changes in video images, the method tends to fail in presence of shadows and illumination changes. This paper explores a possible remedy to these problems by using range cameras instead of conventional video cameras. As range is an intrinsic measure of object geometry, it is basically not...

Pedestrian Detection in Infrared Outdoor Images Based on Atmospheric Situation Estimation

Observation in absolute darkness and daytime under every atmospheric situation is one of the advantages of thermal imaging systems. In spite of increasing trend of using these systems, there are still lots of difficulties in analysing thermal images due to the variable features of pedestrians and atmospheric situations. In this paper an efficient method is proposed for detecting pedestrians in ...

Driver Drowsiness Detection by Identification of Yawning and Eye Closure

Today most accidents are caused by drivers’ fatigue, drowsiness and losing attention on the road ahead. In this paper, a system is introduced, using RGB-D cameras to automatically identify drowsiness and give warning. In this system two important modules have been utilized simultaneously to identify the state of driver’s mouth and eyes for detecting drowsiness. At first, using the depth informa...

Pedestrian detection by means of far-infrared stereo vision

This article presents a stereo system for the detection of pedestrians using far-infrared cameras. Since pedestrian detection in far-infrared images can be difficult in some environmental conditions, the system exploits three different detection approaches: warm area detection, edge-based detection, and disparity computation. A final validation process is performed using head morphological and ...

Pedestrian Detection Based on Adaptive Selection of Visible Light or Far-Infrared Light Camera Image by Fuzzy Inference System and Convolutional Neural Network-Based Verification

A number of studies have been conducted to enhance the pedestrian detection accuracy of intelligent surveillance systems. However, detecting pedestrians under outdoor conditions is a challenging problem due to the varying lighting, shadows, and occlusions. In recent times, a growing number of studies have been performed on visible light camera-based pedestrian detection systems using a convolut...
