Detection of People Carrying Objects: A Motion-Based Recognition Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a method to detect instances of a walking person carrying an object seen from a stationary camera. We take a correspondence-free motion-based recognition approach, that exploits known shape and periodicity cues of the human silhouette shape. Specifically, we subdivide the binary silhouette into four horizontal segments, and analyze the temporal behavior of the bounding box width over each segment. We posit that the periodicity and amplitudes of these time series satisfy certain criteria for a natural walking person, and deviations therefrom are an indication that the person might be carrying an object. The method is tested on 41 360x240 color outdoor sequences of people walking and carrying objects at various poses and camera viewpoints. A correct detection rate of 85% and a false alarm rate of 12% are obtained.

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language
Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...
