To deal with the problems of occlusion, pose variations and illumination changes in the object tracking system, a regression model weighted multi-templates mean-shift (MS) algorithm is proposed in this paper. Target templates and occlusion templates are extracted to compose a multi-templates set. Then, the MS algorithm is applied to the multi-templates set for obtaining the candidate areas. Moreover, a regression model is trained to estimate the Bhattacharyya coefficients between the templates and candidate areas. Finally, the geometric center of the tracked areas is considered as the object's position. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on several classical videos. The experimental results show that the regression model weighted multi-templates MS algorithm can track an object accurately in terms of occlusion, illumination changes and pose variations.

본 연구에서는 움직이는 CCD 카메라로부터 입력된 영상에서 색상 및 질감 성분을 기반으로 하는 파티클 필터를 이용하여 실시간으로 객체를 추적할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 초기 영상에서 추적하고자 하는 객체를 선택하면 이를 타깃 파티클로 결정하고, 타깃 파티클로 부터 추적을 위한 초기 상태가 모델링 된다. 이후 프레임부터 N개의 파티클들이 랜덤 분포로 생성되고 각 파티클로 부터 질감 정보인 로컬 CS-LBP (Centre Symmetric Local Binary Patterns)모델과 색상 분포 모델이 특징 모델로 사용된다. 각 특징 모델에 대해 바타차리야 (Bhattacharyya) 거리를 사용하여 각 파티클과 타깃 파티클 간의 특징 관측 우도(likelihood)를 구하고 이를 각 파티클의 가중치로 설정 한다. 각 파티클의 가중치를 기반으로 가중치가 가장 높은 파티클을 새로운 타깃으로 설정하고, 각 파티클들을 재 샘플링 한다. 본 실험결과에서는 여러 가지 특징을 조합하여 실험을 하였고, 그 결과 색상 분포 모델과 로컬 CS-LBP를 조합했을 때 추적 성능이 가장 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper a novel feature extraction and selection is carried out in order to improve the discriminating capability between healthy and damaged structure using vibration signals. Although many feature extraction and selection algorithms have been proposed for vibration signals, most proposed approaches don't consider the discriminating ability of features since they are usually in unsupervised manner. We proposed a novel feature extraction and selection algorithm selecting few wavelet coefficients with higher class discriminating capability for damage detection and class visualization. We applied three class separability measures to evaluate the features, i.e. T test statistics, divergence, and Bhattacharyya distance. Experiments with vibration signals from truss structure demonstrate that class separabilities are significantly enhanced using our proposed algorithm compared to other two algorithms with original time-based features and Fourier-based ones.

We investigate the Hurwitz stability condition using the coefficient diagram. The coefficient diagram consists of a plot of logarithmic values of the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial versus the degree of the coresponding coefficients. The logarithmic value of the coefficient of the characteristic polynomials are plotted in the descending order. Using the Bhattacharyya, Chapellat and Keel's algorithm, the sufficient and necessary condition for Hurwitz stability are reconstructed using the coefficient diagram. With the coefficient diagram we also present some necessary or sufficient conditions for Hurwitz stability of polynomials. In addition we obtain a lower bound for the Manabe parameter $\tau$.

Context-awareness is an essential part of ubiquitous computing, and over the past decade video based activity recognition (VAR) has emerged as an important component to identify user's context for automatic service delivery in context-aware applications. The accuracy of VAR significantly depends on the performance of the employed human body segmentation algorithm. Previous human body segmentation algorithms often engage modeling of the human body that normally requires bulky amount of training data and cannot competently handle changes over time. Recently, active contours have emerged as a successful segmentation technique in still images. In this paper, an active contour model with the integration of Chan Vese (CV) energy and Bhattacharya distance functions are adapted for automatic human body segmentation using depth cameras for VAR. The proposed technique not only outperforms existing segmentation methods in normal scenarios but it is also more robust to noise. Moreover, it is unsupervised, i.e., no prior human body model is needed. The performance of the proposed segmentation technique is compared against conventional CV Active Contour (AC) model using a depth-camera and obtained much better performance over it.
