  • This article describes a new recognition algorithm using correlation coefficient for intelligent wheelchair to avoid collision for elderly or disabled people. The correlation coefficient can be used to represent the relationship of two different areas. The algorithm has three steps: Firstly, we extract an edge vector using the Histogram of Oriented Gradients(HOG) which includes gradient information and unique magnitude for each cell. From this result, the correlation coefficients are calculated between one cell and others. Secondly, correlation coefficients are used as the weighting factors for normalizing the HOG cell. And finally, these features are used to classify or detect variable and complicated shapes of two wheelers using Adaboost algorithm. In this paper, we propose a new feature vectors which is calculated by weighted cell unit to classify with multiple view-based shapes: frontal, rear and side views($60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$ and mixed angle). Our experimental results show that two wheeler detection system based on a proposed approach leads to a higher detection accuracy than the method using traditional features in a similar detection time.

  • We propose a effective method using the HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients) feature vector to track individual objects in an environment which multiple objects are moving. The proposed algorithm consists of pre-processing, object detection and object tracking. We experimented with six videos which have various trajectories and the movement. When occlusion between objects was occurred, we identified individual object by using center and predicted coordinates of moving objects. The algorithm shows 85.45% of tracking rate in the videos we experimented. We expect the proposed system is utilized in security systems which require the alalysis of the position and motion pattern of objects.

  • This paper introduces a visual object classification algorithm based on statistical information. Objects are characterized through the Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) method and classification is performed using Multiclass AdaBoost. Salient features of an object's appearance are detected by HOG blocks Blocks of different sizes are tested to define the most suitable configuration. To select the most informative blocks for classification a multiclass AdaBoostSVM algorithm is applied. The proposed method has a high speed processing and classification rate. Results of the evaluation based on example of hand gesture recognition are presented.

  • 본 논문에서는 차세대 무인 군사 로봇에 활용할 수 있는 적군 및 아군 식별 수단으로 군복의 색깔을 이용한 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 전장지역의 군사로봇이 할 수 있는 피아식별법 중에 하나로 로봇에 부착되어 있는 카메라 외에 추가적으로 가져야 하는 장비가 필요 없기 때문에 추가비용 없이 효과적으로 적군을 포착할 수 있다. 군복의 색깔 차이를 식별하기 위해서는 먼저 HOG(Histogram of Oriented Gradients) 기법을 이용하여 사람을 검출한 다음, 이후 검출된 사람영역에 대하여 인체 비율을 고려해서 추출한 상의 부분의 색깔 데이터를 받는다. 이때 색공간은 HSV 공간으로 하여 조명의 변화에 덜 민감하도록 하였다. 북한 군복 색깔 영역의 pixel들만 추출하여 이진화를 한 후, 상의 전체 픽셀에 대한 개수 비율을 계산한다. 비율이 임계값 보다 높을 경우 적으로 인식한다.

  • This paper describes a real-time human and robot tracking method in Intelligent Space with multi-camera networks. The proposed method detects candidates for humans and robots by using the histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) feature in an image. To classify humans and robots from the candidates in real time, we apply cascaded structure to constructing a strong classifier which consists of many weak classifiers as follows: a linear support vector machine (SVM) and a radial-basis function (RBF) SVM. By using the multiple view geometry, the method estimates the 3D position of humans and robots from their 2D coordinates on image coordinate system, and tracks their positions by using stochastic approach. To test the performance of the method, humans and robots are asked to move according to given rectangular and circular paths. Experimental results show that the proposed method is able to reduce the localization error and be good for a practical application of human-centered services in the Intelligent Space.

  • In recent years, research about Natural User Interface (NUI) has become focused because NUI system can give natural feelings for users in virtual reality. Most important thing in NUI system is how to communicate with the computer system. There are many things to interact with users such as speech, hand gestures, body actions. Among them, hand gesture is suitable for the purpose of NUI because people often use a relatively high frequency in daily life and hand gesture have meaning only by itself. This hand gestures called multi-cultural hand gesture and we proposed the method to recognize this kind of hand gestures. Proposed method is composed of Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) used for hand shape recognition and Histogram of Oriented Displacements (HOD) used for hand center point trajectory recognition.

  • Accurate detection of traffic lights is very important for the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS). There have been many research developments in this area. However, conventional of image processing methods are usually sensitive to varying illumination conditions. This paper proposes a traffic light detection algorithm to overcome this situation. The proposed algorithm first detects the candidates of traffic light using the proposed color map and hue-saturation-value (HSV) Traffic lights are then detected using the conventional histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) descriptor and support vector machine (SVM). Finally, the proposed Multilayer HOG descriptor is used to determine the direction information indicated by traffic lights. The proposed algorithm shows a high detection rate in real-time.

  • In this paper we suggest a new two-wheelers detection algorithm using local cell features. The first, we propose new feature vector matrix extraction algorithm using the correlation two cells based on local cell histogram and shifting from the result of histogram of oriented gradients(HOG). The second, we applied new weighting values which are calculated by the modified histogram intersection showing the similarity of two cells. This paper applied the Adaboost algorithm to make a strong classification from weak classification. In this experiment, we can get the result that the detection rate of the proposed method is higher than that of the traditional method.

  • Here we propose an image quality assessment (IQA) based on histogram of oriented gradients (HOG). This method makes use of the characteristic that the histogram of gradient image describes the state of input image. In the proposed method, the image quality is derived by the slope of the HOG obtained from the target image. The line representing the HOG is measured by a random sample consensus (RANSAC) on the HOG. Simulation results based on the LIVE image quality assessment database suggest that the proposed method aligns better with how the human visual system perceives image quality than several state-of-the-art IQAs.
