Wood Detection and Tracking in Videos of Rivers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rivers during floods bring a lot of fallen trees and debris. Video surveillance systems are installed on strategically important places on the rivers. To protect these places from destructions due to accumulation of wood, such systems must be able to automatically detect wood. Image segmentation is performed to separate wood and other moving elements from the rest of the water. Moving objects are detected with respect to brightness and temporal variation features. The floating wood is then tracked in the sequence of frames by temporal linking of the segments generated in the detection step. Our algorithm is tested on multiple videos of floods and the results are evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively.

A New Method for Sperm Detection in Human Semen: Combination of Hypothesis Testing and Local Mapping of Wavelet Sub-Bands
Introduction Automated methods for sperm characterization in microscopic videos have some limitations such as: low contrast of the video frames and possibility of neighboring sperms to touch each other. In this paper a new method is introduced for detection of sperms in microscopic videos. Materials and Methods In this work, first microscopic videos are captured from specimens of human semen. S...
متن کاملThe Dependent Dirichlet Process Mixture of Objects for Detection-free Tracking and Object Modeling
This paper explores how to find, track, and learn models of arbitrary objects in a video without a predefined method for object detection. We present a model that localizes objects via unsupervised tracking while learning a representation of each object, avoiding the need for pre-built detectors. Our model uses a dependent Dirichlet process mixture to capture the uncertainty in the number and a...
متن کاملOnline multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes
Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...

This paper proposes a technique for the unsupervised detection and tracking of arbitrary objects in videos. It is intended to reduce the need for detection and localization methods tailored to specific object types and serve as a general framework applicable to videos with varied objects, backgrounds, and image qualities. The technique uses a dependent Dirichlet process mixture (DDPM) known as ...
متن کاملCovariance Analysis of a vector tracking GPS receiver based on MMSE multiuser Detection
In high dynamic conditions, using vector tracking loops instead of scalar tracking loops in GPS receivers is proved as an efficient method to compensate the performance. The Minimum Mean Squared Error detector as a multiuser detector is applied in the vector tracking loop for more reliability and efficiency. The Kalman filter does the two tasks of tracking and extracting the navigation data aft...
