چکیده

Reliable measures of person positions are needed for computational perception of human activities taking place in a smart-room environment. In this work, we present the Person Tracking systems developed at UPC for audio, video and audio-video modalities in the context of the EU funded CHIL project research activities. The aim of the designed systems, and particularly of the new contributions proposed, is to deal robustly in both single and multiperson localization tasks independently on the environmental conditions. Besides the technology description, experimental results conducted for the CLEAR evaluation workshop are also reported.

Multimodal Person Identification in a Smart Room

In this paper we present a person identification system based on a combination of acoustic features and 2D face images. We address the modality integration issue on the example of a smart room environment. In order to improve the results of the individual modalities, the audio and video classifiers are integrated after a set of normalization and fusion techniques. First we introduce the monomod...

Combining Audio Features and Visual I-Vector @ MediaEval 2015 Multimodal Person Discovery in Broadcast TV

This paper describes our diarization system for the Multimodal Person Discovery in Broadcast TV task of the MediaEval 2015 Benchmark evaluation campaign [1]. The goal of this task is naming speakers, who are appearing and speaking simultaneously in the video, without prior knowledge. Our diarization system is based on multimodal approach to combine audio and visual informations. We extract feat...

A Person Tracking System for CHIL Meetings

This paper presents the audio based tracking system designed at FBK-irst laboratories for the CLEAR 2007 evaluation campaign. The tracker relies on the Global Coherence Field theory that has proved to efficiently deal with the foreseen scenarios. Particular emphasis is given to the post-processing of localization hypotheses which guarantees smooth speaker trajectories and is crucial for the ove...
