Real-time human segmentation in infrared videos
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a new approach to real-time people segmentation through processing images captured by an infrared camera is introduced. The approach starts detecting human candidate blobs processed through traditional image thresholding techniques. Afterwards, the blobs are refined with the objective of validating the content of each blob. The question to be solved is if each blob contains one single human candidate or more than one. If the blob contains more than one possible human, the blob is divided to fit each new candidate in height and width. 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Probabilistic Template Based Pedestrian Detection in Infrared Videos
In this paper we present a real time pedestrian detection system that works on low quality infrared videos. We introduce an efficient and effective idea of probabilistic templates to capture the variations in human shape specially for the case where the contrast is low and body parts are missing. The infrared videos provide the regions of interest, which considerably reduces the search space an...
متن کاملA Time-Frequency approach for EEG signal segmentation
The record of human brain neural activities, namely electroencephalogram (EEG), is generally known as a non-stationary and nonlinear signal. In many applications, it is useful to divide the EEGs into segments within which the signals can be considered stationary. Combination of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert transform, called Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT), is a new and powerful ...
متن کاملMotion estimation and segmentation in depth and intensity videos
This paper investigates motion estimation and segmentation of independently moving objects in video sequences that contain depth and intensity information, such as videos captured by a Time of Flight camera. Specifically, we present a motion estimation algorithm which is based on integration of depth and intensity data. The resulting motion information is used to derive long-term point trajecto...

Introduction The morphologic features of human sperms are key indicators for monitoring fertility problems in men. Therefore, automated analyzing methods via microscopic videos have become the most favorite policy in infertility treatment during the last decades. Materials and Methods In the proposed method, firstly a hypothesis testing framework was defined to distinguish sperms from backgroun...
متن کامل3D Semantic Representation of Actions from efficient stereo-image-sequence segmentation on GPUs
A novel real-time framework for model-free stereo-video segmentation and stereo-segment tracking is presented, combining real-time optical flow and stereo with image segmentation running separately on two GPUs. The stereosegment tracking algorithm achieves a frame rate of 23 Hz for regular videos with a frame size of 256 × 320 pixels and nearly real time for stereo videos. The computed stereo s...
