چکیده

We propose an exemplar-based tracking framework for human contour tracking. The exemplars, i.e. the contour representatives, are used to construct a contour ensemble. The main task of contour ensemble is to generate contours to fill in the gaps in-between in the test sequences, and to supply the dynamics for updating the target contour by fast contour query. As a result, a normal dynamic Bayesian network is only used to infer the location and the size of the target contour. The effectiveness of the proposed method is tested by many human motion sequences.

A New Approach to Human Motion Sequence Recognition with Application to Diving Actions

Human motion sequence-oriented spatio-temporal pattern analysis is a new problem in pattern recognition. This paper proposes an approach to human motion sequence recognition based on 2D spatiotemporal shape analysis, which is used to identify diving actions. The approach consists of the following main steps. For each image sequence involving human in diving, a simple exemplar-based contour trac...

Detecting and Tracking Tractor-Trailers Using View-Based Templates

Vehicle tracking and classification is an important application of computer vision. There exist mainly two types of tracking techniques: Appearance-based tracking and Feature-based tracking. Appearance-based techniques generally require a model or template of the target to be tracked. However the model needs to be robust to the multitude of deformations possible in the course of the target’s mo...

Viewpoint invariant exemplar-based 3D human tracking

This paper proposes a clustered exemplar-based model for performing viewpoint invariant tracking of the 3D motion of a human subject from a single camera. Each exemplar is associated with multiple view visual information of a person and the corresponding 3D skeletal pose. The visual information takes the form of contours obtained from different viewpoints around the subject. The inclusion of mu...

A Probabilistic Exemplar Approach to Combine Laser and Vision for Person Tracking

This article presents an approach to person tracking that combines camera images and laser range data. The method uses probabilistic exemplar models, which represent typical appearances of persons in the sensor data by metric mixture distributions. Our approach learns such models from laser and from camera data and applies a Rao-Blackwellized particle filter in order to track a person’s appeara...

Contour coding based rotating adaptive model for human detection and tracking in thermal catadioptric omnidirectional vision.

In this paper, we introduce a novel surveillance system based on thermal catadioptric omnidirectional (TCO) vision. The conventional contour-based methods are difficult to be applied to the TCO sensor for detection or tracking purposes due to the distortion of TCO vision. To solve this problem, we propose a contour coding based rotating adaptive model (RAM) that can extract the contour feature ...
