چکیده

We present a system for fall detection in which the fall hypothesis, generated on the basis of accelerometric data, is validated by k-NN based classifier operating on depth features. We show that validation of the alarms in such a way leads to lower ratio of false alarms. We demonstrate the detection performance of the system using publicly available data. We discuss algorithms for person detection in images acquired by both a static and an active depth sensor. The head is modeled in 3D by an ellipsoid that is matched to point clouds, and which is also projected into 2D, where it is matched to edges in the depth maps.

Online 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...

New Fast Fall Detection Method Based on Spatio-Temporal Context Tracking of Head by Using Depth Images

In order to deal with the problem of projection occurring in fall detection with two-dimensional (2D) grey or color images, this paper proposed a robust fall detection method based on spatio-temporal context tracking over three-dimensional (3D) depth images that are captured by the Kinect sensor. In the pre-processing procedure, the parameters of the Single-Gauss-Model (SGM) are estimated and t...

Performance Evaluation of Detector Algorithms of Dust Storms in Arid Lands (Case Study: Yazd Province)

Introduction: In recent years, frequency and intensity of dust storms have been increased because of human destructive activities and caused significant loss in different aspects of hygienic and health, environmental and socio-economic sections. Therefore, detection and trace of dust storms in shortest time is the first effective step in preparation and implementation of strategic and operation...

Event-driven system for fall detection using body-worn accelerometer and depth sensor

In this paper we present efficient and effective algorithms for fall detection on the basis of sequences of depth maps and data from a wireless inertial sensor worn by a monitored person. A set of descriptors is discussed to permit distinguishing between accidental falls and activities of daily living. Experimental validation is carried out on freely available dataset consisting of synchronized...

Multi-modal Person Localization And Emergency Detection Using The Kinect

Person localization is of paramount importance in an ambient intelligence environment since it is the first step towards context-awareness. In this work, we present the development of a novel system for multi-modal person localization and emergency detection in an assistive ambient intelligence environment for the elderly. Our system is based on the depth sensor and microphone array of 2 Kinect...
