Download or read book Moving Objects Detection Using Machine Learning written by Navneet Ghedia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how machine learning can detect moving objects in a digital video stream. The authors present different background subtraction approaches, foreground segmentation, and object tracking approaches to accomplish this. They also propose an algorithm that considers a multimodal background subtraction approach that can handle a dynamic background and different constraints. The authors show how the proposed algorithm is able to detect and track 2D & 3D objects in monocular sequences for both indoor and outdoor surveillance environments and at the same time, also able to work satisfactorily in a dynamic background and with challenging constraints. In addition, the shows how the proposed algorithm makes use of parameter optimization and adaptive threshold techniques as intrinsic improvements of the Gaussian Mixture Model. The presented system in the book is also able to handle partial occlusion during object detection and tracking. All the presented work and evaluations were carried out in offline processing with the computation done by a single laptop computer with MATLAB serving as software environment.

Download or read book Representations and Techniques for 3D Object Recognition and Scene Interpretation written by Derek Hoiem and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the grand challenges of artificial intelligence is to enable computers to interpret 3D scenes and objects from imagery. This book organizes and introduces major concepts in 3D scene and object representation and inference from still images, with a focus on recent efforts to fuse models of geometry and perspective with statistical machine learning. The book is organized into three sections: (1) Interpretation of Physical Space; (2) Recognition of 3D Objects; and (3) Integrated 3D Scene Interpretation. The first discusses representations of spatial layout and techniques to interpret physical scenes from images. The second section introduces representations for 3D object categories that account for the intrinsically 3D nature of objects and provide robustness to change in viewpoints. The third section discusses strategies to unite inference of scene geometry and object pose and identity into a coherent scene interpretation. Each section broadly surveys important ideas from cognitive science and artificial intelligence research, organizes and discusses key concepts and techniques from recent work in computer vision, and describes a few sample approaches in detail. Newcomers to computer vision will benefit from introductions to basic concepts, such as single-view geometry and image classification, while experts and novices alike may find inspiration from the book's organization and discussion of the most recent ideas in 3D scene understanding and 3D object recognition. Specific topics include: mathematics of perspective geometry; visual elements of the physical scene, structural 3D scene representations; techniques and features for image and region categorization; historical perspective, computational models, and datasets and machine learning techniques for 3D object recognition; inferences of geometrical attributes of objects, such as size and pose; and probabilistic and feature-passing approaches for contextual reasoning about 3D objects and scenes. Table of Contents: Background on 3D Scene Models / Single-view Geometry / Modeling the Physical Scene / Categorizing Images and Regions / Examples of 3D Scene Interpretation / Background on 3D Recognition / Modeling 3D Objects / Recognizing and Understanding 3D Objects / Examples of 2D 1/2 Layout Models / Reasoning about Objects and Scenes / Cascades of Classifiers / Conclusion and Future Directions

Download or read book Real time 3D Contour Analysis for Object Tracking written by Muhammad Usman Butt and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real-time object detection is critical for many computer vision applications such as surveillance and security, human activity monitoring, hazards and obstacles detection in intelligent vehicle and advanced driving assistance systems and service robots. Object detection from 2D images is very common, but it suffers from illumination changes, shadows, background clutter etc. in a dynamic environment. For a more reliable object detection system, these problems can be efficiently overcome by exploiting 3D, as an additional cue, obtained from stereo images. A number of algorithms has been developed which use 3D information as an axillary cue to detect object of interest from the scene. This thesis focuses on development of parallel contour generation leading to an object detection system with a real-time performance using real-time high resolution 3D data (depth map). A depth map of a scene is a multivalued grey image and contour generation from such an image is computationally expensive. An efficient crack code based parallel contour generation from multivalued images was developed and implemented on a parallel hardware - Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). It generates approximately 25000 contours from a 128 grey-level 3D map in

Download or read book Object Tracking Technology written by Ashish Kumar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-27 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increase in urban population, it became necessary to keep track of the object of interest. In favor of SDGs for sustainable smart city, with the advancement in technology visual tracking extends to track multi-target present in the scene rather estimating location for single target only. In contrast to single object tracking, multi-target introduces one extra step of detection. Tracking multi-target includes detecting and categorizing the target into multiple classes in the first frame and provides each individual target an ID to keep its track in the subsequent frames of a video stream. One category of multi-target algorithms exploits global information to track the target of the detected target. On the other hand, some algorithms consider present and past information of the target to provide efficient tracking solutions. Apart from these, deep leaning-based algorithms provide reliable and accurate solutions. But, these algorithms are computationally slow when applied in real-time. This book presents and summarizes the various visual tracking algorithms and challenges in the domain. The various feature that can be extracted from the target and target saliency prediction is also covered. It explores a comprehensive analysis of the evolution from traditional methods to deep learning methods, from single object tracking to multi-target tracking. In addition, the application of visual tracking and the future of visual tracking can also be introduced to provide the future aspects in the domain to the reader. This book also discusses the advancement in the area with critical performance analysis of each proposed algorithm. This book will be formulated with intent to uncover the challenges and possibilities of efficient and effective tracking of single or multi-object, addressing the various environmental and hardware challenges. The intended audience includes academicians, engineers, postgraduate students, developers, professionals, military personals, scientists, data analysts, practitioners, and people who are interested in exploring more about tracking.· Another projected audience are the researchers and academicians who identify and develop methodologies, frameworks, tools, and applications through reference citations, literature reviews, quantitative/qualitative results, and discussions.

Download or read book Data Association for Multi Object Visual Tracking written by Margrit Betke and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the human quest for scientific knowledge, empirical evidence is collected by visual perception. Tracking with computer vision takes on the important role to reveal complex patterns of motion that exist in the world we live in. Multi-object tracking algorithms provide new information on how groups and individual group members move through three-dimensional space. They enable us to study in depth the relationships between individuals in moving groups. These may be interactions of pedestrians on a crowded sidewalk, living cells under a microscope, or bats emerging in large numbers from a cave. Being able to track pedestrians is important for urban planning; analysis of cell interactions supports research on biomaterial design; and the study of bat and bird flight can guide the engineering of aircraft. We were inspired by this multitude of applications to consider the crucial component needed to advance a single-object tracking system to a multi-object tracking system—data association. Data association in the most general sense is the process of matching information about newly observed objects with information that was previously observed about them. This information may be about their identities, positions, or trajectories. Algorithms for data association search for matches that optimize certain match criteria and are subject to physical conditions. They can therefore be formulated as solving a "constrained optimization problem"—the problem of optimizing an objective function of some variables in the presence of constraints on these variables. As such, data association methods have a strong mathematical grounding and are valuable general tools for computer vision researchers. This book serves as a tutorial on data association methods, intended for both students and experts in computer vision. We describe the basic research problems, review the current state of the art, and present some recently developed approaches. The book covers multi-object tracking in two and three dimensions. We consider two imaging scenarios involving either single cameras or multiple cameras with overlapping fields of view, and requiring across-time and across-view data association methods. In addition to methods that match new measurements to already established tracks, we describe methods that match trajectory segments, also called tracklets. The book presents a principled application of data association to solve two interesting tasks: first, analyzing the movements of groups of free-flying animals and second, reconstructing the movements of groups of pedestrians. We conclude by discussing exciting directions for future research.

Download or read book Wide Area 2D 3D Imaging written by Benjamin Langmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaging technology is an important research area and it is widely utilized in a growing number of disciplines ranging from gaming, robotics and automation to medicine. In the last decade 3D imaging became popular mainly driven by the introduction of novel 3D cameras and measuring devices. These cameras are usually limited to indoor scenes with relatively low distances. Benjamin Langmann introduces medium and long-range 2D/3D cameras to overcome these limitations. He reports measurement results for these devices and studies their characteristic behavior. In order to facilitate the application of these cameras, common algorithms are adapted to the 2D/3D data and new approaches for standard computer vision tasks are introduced.

Download or read book 3D Object Detection and Tracking for Autonomous Vehicles written by Su Pang and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autonomous driving systems require accurate 3D object detection and tracking to achieve reliable path planning and navigation. For object detection, there have been significant advances in neural networks for single-modality approaches. However, it has been surprisingly difficult to train networks to use multiple modalities in a way that demonstrates gain over single-modality networks. In this dissertation, we first propose three networks for Camera-LiDAR and Camera-Radar fusion. For Camera-LiDAR fusion, CLOCs (Camera-LiDAR Object Candidates fusion) and Fast-CLOCs are presented. CLOCs fusion provides a multi-modal fusion framework that significantly improves the performance of single-modality detectors. CLOCs operates on the combined output candidates before Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) of any 2D and any 3D detector, and is trained to leverage their geometric and semantic consistencies to produce more accurate 3D detection results. Fast-CLOCs can run in near real-time with less computational requirements compared to CLOCs. Fast-CLOCs eliminates the separate heavy 2D detector, and instead uses a 3D detector-cued 2D image detector (3D-Q-2D) to reduce memory and computation. For Camera-Radar fusion, we propose TransCAR, a Transformer-based Camera-And-Radar fusion solution for 3D object detection. The cross-attention layer within the transformer decoder can adaptively learn the soft-association between the radar features and vision queries instead of hard-association based on sensor calibration only. Then, we propose to solve the 3D multiple object tracking (MOT) problem for autonomous driving applications using a random finite set-based (RFS) Multiple Measurement Models filter (RFS-M3). In particular, we propose multiple measurement models for a Poisson multi-Bernoulli mixture (PMBM) filter in support of different application scenarios. Our RFS-M3 filter can naturally model these uncertainties accurately and elegantly. We combine learning-based detections with our RFS-M3 tracker by incorporating the detection confidence score into the PMBM prediction and update step. We have evaluated our CLOCs, Fast-CLOCs and TransCAR fusion-based 3D detector and RFS-M3 3D tracker using challenging datasets including KITTI, nuScenes, Argoverse and Waymo that are released by academia and industry leaders. Superior experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

Download or read book Taking Mobile Multi Object Tracking to the Next Level written by Dennis Mitzel and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen considerable progress in automotive safety and autonomous navigation applications, fueled by the remarkable advance of individual Computer Vision components, such as object detection, tracking, stereo and visual odometry. The goal in such applications is to automatically infer semantic understanding from the environment, observed from a moving vehicle equipped with a camera system. The pedestrian detection and tracking components constitute an actively researched part in scene understanding, important for safe navigation, path planning, and collision avoidance. Classical tracking-by-detection approaches require a robust object detector that needs to be executed in every frame. However, the detector is typically the most computationally expensive component, especially if more than one object class needs to be detected. A first goal of this thesis was to develop a vision system based on stereo camera input that is able to detect and track multiple pedestrians in real-time. To this end, we propose a hybrid tracking system that combines a computationally cheap low-level tracker with a more complex high-level tracker. The low-level trackers are either based on level-set segmentation or stereo range data together with a point registration algorithm and are employed in order to follow individual pedestrians over time, starting from an initial object detection. In order to cope with drift and to bridge occlusions that cannot be resolved by low-level trackers, the resulting tracklet outputs are fed to a high-level multihypothesis tracker, which performs longer-term data association. With this integration we obtain a real-time tracking framework by reducing object detector applications to fewer frames or even to few small image regions when stereo data is available. Reduction of expensive detector evaluations is especially relevant for the deployment on mobile platforms, where real-time performance is crucial and computational resources are notoriously
