Algorithmic Lateral Inhibition Formal Model for Real-Time Motion Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, the use of the algorithmic lateral inhibition (ALI) method in motion detection has shown to be very effective. The promising results in terms of the goodness of the silhouettes detected and tracked along video sequences lead us to accept the challenge of searching for a real-time implementation of the algorithms. This paper introduces two steps towards that direction: (a) A simplification of the general ALI method is performed by formally transforming it into a finite state machine. (b) A hardware implementation of such a designed ALI module, as well as an 8x8 ALI module, has been tested on several video sequences, providing promising performance results.

Recently, the Algorithmic Lateral Inhibition (ALI) method and the Accumulative Computation (AC) method have proven to be efficient in modelling at the knowledge level for general-motion-detection tasks in video sequences. More precisely, the task of persistent motion detection has been widely expressed by means of the AC method, whereas the ALI method has been used with the objective of moving ...
متن کاملA quantitative investigation on lung tumor site on its motion tracking in radiotherapy with external surrogates
Introduction: In external beam radiotherapy each effort is done to deliver 3D dose distribution onto the tumor volume uniformly, while minimizing the dose to healthy organs at the same time. Radiation treatment of tumors located at thorax region such as lung and liver has a challenging issue during target localization since these tumors move mainly due to respiration. There are...
