초록

본 논문에서는 고정된 카메라로부터 획득된 색상 비디오 프레임에서 조명변화와 겹침으로 인한 왜곡에 강건하게 다수의 사람을 추적하는 방법을 제안한다. 조명변화에 따른 외형변화의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 시간 비종속적인 본래(intrinsic) 영상을 이용하여 프레임에 존재하는 조명을 제거하며, 매 프레임마다 조명 영상을 적응적으로 갱신한다. 카메라 내에서 사람을 추적하기 위해 색상정보를 포함하는 계충적 사람모델을 사용함으로써 겹침의 문제를 해결한다. 추적된 사람모델은 사람모델 리스트에 저장되어 해당되는 사람이 카메라에서 사라진 후에도 일정 기간 보존됨으로써, 재등장한 사람의 정보를 복원할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 적응적 모델기반 방법은 실내${\cdot}$외 영상을 대상으로 여러 시나리오로 실험되어, 조명변화로 왜곡된 사람의 색상정보를 옳게 보정하였을 뿐만 아니라 사람들이 겹치거나 헤어진 후에도 성공적으로 추적하였음을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a method to track persons robustly in illumination changes and partial occlusions in color video frames acquired from a fixed camera. To solve a problem of changing appearance by illumination change, a time-independent intrinsic image is used to remove noises in an frame and is adaptively updated frame-by-frame. We use a hierarchical human model including body color information in order to track persons in occlusion. The tracked human model is recorded into a persons' list for some duration after the corresponding person's exit and is recovered from the list after her reentering. The proposed method was experimented in several indoor and outdoor scenario. This demonstrated the potential effectiveness of an adaptive model-base method that corrected distorted person's color information by lighting changes, and succeeded tracking of persons which was overlapped in a frame.
