چکیده

This paper presents a real-time algorithm that allows robust tracking of multiple objects in complex environments. Foreground pixels are detected using luminance contrast and grouped into blobs. Blobs from two consecutive frames are matched creating the matching matrices. Tracking is performed using direct and inverse matching matrices. This method successfully solves blobs merging and splitting. Results from indoor and outdoor scenarios are shown.

Pedestrians Tracking in a Camera Network

With the increase of the number of cameras installed across a video surveillance network, the ability of security staffs to attentively scan all the video feeds actually decreases. Therefore, the need for an intelligent system that operates as a tracking system is vital for security personnel to do their jobs well. Tracking people as they move through a camera network with non-overlapping field...

Book chapter for Machine Learning for Human Motion Analysis: Theory and Practice

Visual processing of people, including detection, tracking, recognition, and behavior interpretation, is a key component of intelligent video surveillance systems. Computer vision algorithms with the capability of “looking at people” at multiple scales can be applied in different surveillance scenarios, such as far-field people detection for wide-area perimeter protection, midfield people detec...

People Re-identification in Non-overlapping Field-of-views using Cumulative Brightness Transform Function and Body Segments in Different Color Spaces

Non-overlapping field-of-view (FOV) cameras are used in surveillance system to cover a wider area. Tracking in such systems is generally performed in two distinct steps. In the first step, people are identified and tracked in the FOV of a single camera. In the second step, re-identification of the people is carried out to track them in the whole area under surveillance. Various conventional fea...

A Novel Method for Tracking Moving Objects using Block-Based Similarity

Extracting and tracking active objects are two major issues in surveillance and monitoring applications such as nuclear reactors, mine security, and traffic controllers. In this paper, a block-based similarity algorithm is proposed in order to detect and track objects in the successive frames. We define similarity and cost functions based on the features of the blocks, leading to less computati...

Performance Evaluation Methods for Human Detection and Tracking Systems for Robotic Applications

Detecting and tracking people is becoming more important in robotic applications because of the increasing demand for collaborative work in which people interact closely with and in the same workspace as robots. New safety standards allow people to work next to robots but require that they be protected from harm while they do so. Sensors that detect and track people are a natural way of impleme...
