In computer vision real–time tracking of moving objects in natural scenes has become more and more important. In this paper we describe a complete system for data driven tracking of moving objects. We apply the system to tracking pedestrians in natural scenes. No specialized hardware is used. To achieve the necessary efficiency several principles of active vision, namely selection in space, tim...

In this paper, we present an advanced moving object detection algorithm in urban environment. Our system is designed to reconstruct a three-dimensional world model. In this reconstruction process, we have to separate the ground structures that is static objects and moving objects when the car is running through the town to make the accurate 3-D world model including ground structures only. The ...

We model a moving object as a sizable physical entity equipped with GPS, wireless communication capability, and a computer. Based on a grid model, we develop a distributed system, FATES, to manage data for moving objects in a two-dimensional space. The system is used to provide time-dependent shortest paths for moving objects. The performance study shows that FATES yields shorter average trip t...

We demonstrate a real time system for image registration and moving object detection. The algorithm is based on describing the displacement of a point as a probability distribution over a matrix of possible displacements. A small set of randomly selected points is used to compute the registration parameters. Moving object detection is based on the consistency of the probabilistic displacement o...

Recognizing arbitrary objects in images or video sequences is a difficult task for a computer vision system. We work towards automated learning of object detectors from video sequences (without user interaction). Our system uses object motion as an important cue to detect independently moving objects in the input sequence. The largest object is always taken as the teaching input, i.e. the objec...

Traditional visual servoing systems do not deal with the topic of moving objects tracking. When these systems are employed to track a moving object, depending on the object velocity, visual features can go out of the image, causing the fail of the tracking task. This occurs specially when the object and the robot are both stopped and then the object starts the movement. In this work, we have em...

When a moving object is viewed by an observer with eyes, head, and body fixed, its projected image moves across the retina. In this instance it is natural to equate object motion with image motion. But much of the time, our eyes, head, and body are in motion, and this fact invalidates any attempt to equate object motion directly with image motion. Image motion depends on both eye movements and ...

Moving target detection has always been a significant interest in temporal image analysis field since it rose up to the present. It has widespread application prospect in dealing the emergency event, detecting moving object in big square, and rescuing in natural disaster. Based on the common single lens camera imaging, for the restraint of the photographable screen and the expression of plane i...
