چکیده

W 4 is a real time visual surveillance system for detecting and tracking people and monitoring their activities in an outdoor environment. It operates on monocular grayscale video imagery, or on video imagery from an infrared camera. Unlike many of systems for tracking people, W 4 makes no use of color cues. Instead, W 4 employs a combination of shape analysis and tracking to locate people and their parts (head, hands, feet, torso) and to create models of people's appearance so that they can be tracked through interactions such as occlusions. W 4 is capable of simultaneously tracking multiple people even with occlusion. It runs at 25 Hz for 320x240 resolution images on a dual-pentium PC.

A study on the accuracy of motion tracking of thoracic tumors at radiotherapy with external surrogates

Introduction: In radiotherapy with external surrogates, exact information of tumor position is one of the key factors that improves treatment delivery. Many dynamic tumors in thorax region of patient move mainly due to respiration and are known as intra-fractional motion error that must be compensated, as well. One of clinical strategy is using Stereotactic Body Radiation Thera...
