In moving object tracking based on the visual sensory feedback, a prerequisite is to determine which feature or which object is to be tracked and then the feature or the object identification precedes the tracking. In this paper, we focus on the object identification not image feature identification. The target identification is realized by finding out corresponding line segments to the hypothesized model segments of the target. The key idea is the combination of the Mahalanobis distance with the geometrica relationship between model segments and extracted line segments. We demonstrate the robustness and feasibility of the proposed target identification algorithm by a moving vehicle identification and tracking in the video traffic surveillance system over images of a road scene.

Background: Inspection of livestock farms using surveillance cameras is emerging as a means of early detection of transboundary animal disease such as African swine fever (ASF). Object tracking, a developing technology derived from object detection aims to the consistent identification of individual objects in farms. Objectives: This study was conducted as a preliminary investigation for practical application to livestock farms. With the use of a high-performance artificial intelligence (AI)-based 3D depth camera, the aim is to establish a pathway for utilizing AI models to perform advanced object tracking. Methods: Multiple crossovers by two humans will be simulated to investigate the potential of object tracking. Inspection of consistent identification will be the evidence of object tracking after crossing over. Two AI models, a fast model and an accurate model, were tested and compared with regard to their object tracking performance in 3D. Finally, the recording of pig pen was also processed with aforementioned AI model to test the possibility of 3D object detection. Results: Both AI successfully processed and provided a 3D bounding box, identification number, and distance away from camera for each individual human. The accurate detection model had better evidence than the fast detection model on 3D object tracking and showed the potential application onto pigs as a livestock. Conclusions: Preparing a custom dataset to train AI models in an appropriate farm is required for proper 3D object detection to operate object tracking for pigs at an ideal level. This will allow the farm to smoothly transit traditional methods to ASF-preventing precision livestock farming.

We proposes a method for improving the identification and tracking of the moving objects in intelligent video surveillance system. The proposed method consists of 3 parts: object detection, object recognition, and object tracking. First of all, we use a GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model) to eliminate the background, and extract the moving object. Next, we propose a labeling technique forrecognition of the moving object. and the method for identifying the recognized object by using the optical flow and EMD algorithm. Lastly, we proposes method to track the location of the identified moving object regions by using location information of moving objects and Kalman filter. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed algorithms through some experiments.

안전과 보안상의 이유로 감시 카메라의 시장이 확대되고 있으며 이에 대해 영상 인식 및 추적에 관한 연구도 활발히 진행 중에 있으나 인식 및 추적되는 객체의 정보를 획득하여 객체를 식별하는 데는 한계가 있다. 특히, 감시카메라가 활용되는 쇼핑몰, 공항 등과 같은 개방된 공간에서는 다수의 객체들을 식별하기란 더욱 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 영상기반 객체 인식 및 추적 시스템에 RFID 기술을 더하여 객체 식별기능을 추가하고자 하였으며 영상 기반과 RFID의 문제 해결을 위해 상호 보완하고자 하였다. 그리하여 시스템의 모듈별 상호작용을 통해 영상기반 객체 인식 및 추적에 실패할 수 있는 문제와 RFID의 인식 오류로 발생할 수 있는 문제에 대한 해결 방안을 제시하였다. 객체의 식별 정도를 4단계로 분류하여 가장 최상의 단계로 객체가 식별이 되도록 시스템을 설계해 식별된 객체의 데이터 신뢰성을 유지할 수 있도록 하였다. 시스템의 효율성 판단을 위해 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 구현하여 이를 입증하였다.

Person re-identification is to match pedestrians observed from non-overlapping camera views. It has important applications in video surveillance such as person retrieval, person tracking, and activity analysis. However, it is a very challenging problem due to illumination, pose and viewpoint variations between non-overlapping camera views. In this work, we propose a viewpoint invariant method for matching pedestrian images using orientation of pedestrian. First, the proposed method divides a pedestrian image into patches and assigns angle to a patch using the orientation of the pedestrian under the assumption that a person body has the cylindrical shape. The difference between angles are then used to compute the similarity between patches. We applied the proposed method to real-time global multi-object tracking across multiple disjoint cameras with non-overlapping field of views. Re-identification algorithm makes global trajectories by connecting local trajectories obtained by different local trackers. The effectiveness of the viewpoint invariant method for person re-identification was validated on the VIPeR dataset. In addition, we demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach for the inter-camera multiple object tracking on the MCT dataset with ground truth data for local tracking.

Robots will be able to coexist with humans and support humans effectively in near future. One of the most important aspects in the development of human-friendly robots is to cooperation between humans and robots. In this paper, we proposed a method for multi-object identification in order to achieve such human-centered system and robot localization in intelligent space. The intelligent space is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. The Intelligent Space achieves the human centered services by accelerating the physical and psychological interaction between humans and intelligent devices. As an intelligent device of the Intelligent Space, a color CCD camera module, which includes processing and networking part, has been chosen. The Intelligent Space requires functions of identifying and tracking the multiple objects to realize appropriate services to users under the multi-camera environments. In order to achieve seamless tracking and location estimation many camera modules are distributed. They causes some errors about object identification among different camera modules. This paper describes appearance based object representation for the distributed vision system in Intelligent Space to achieve consistent labeling of all objects. Then, we discuss how to learn the object color appearance model and how to achieve the multi-object tracking under occlusions.

최근 영상 데이터의 급증으로 이를 효과적으로 처리하기 위해 객체 탐지 및 추적, 행동 인식, 표정 인식, 재식별(Re-ID)과 같은 다양한 컴퓨터비전 기술에 대한 수요도 급증했다. 그러나 객체 탐지 및 추적 기술은 객체의 영상 촬영 장소 이탈과 재등장, 오클루전(Occlusion) 등과 같이 성능을 저하시키는 많은 어려움을 안고 있다. 이에 따라 객체 탐지 및 추적 모델을 근간으로 하는 행동 및 표정 인식 모델 또한 객체별 데이터 추출에 난항을 겪는다. 또한 다양한 모델을 활용한 딥러닝 아키텍처는 병목과 최적화 부족으로 성능 저하를 겪는다. 본 연구에서는 YOLOv5기반 DeepSORT 객체추적 모델, SlowFast 기반 행동 인식 모델, Torchreid 기반 재식별 모델, 그리고 AWS Rekognition의 표정 인식 모델을 활용한 영상 분석 시스템에 단일 연결 계층적 군집화(Single-linkage Hierarchical Clustering)를 활용한 재식별(Re-ID) 기법과 GPU의 메모리 스루풋(Throughput)을 극대화하는 처리 기법을 적용한 행동 및 표정 검출용 영상 분석 시스템을 제안한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 시스템은 간단한 메트릭을 사용하는 재식별 모델의 성능보다 높은 정확도와 실시간에 가까운 처리 성능을 가지며, 객체의 영상 촬영 장소 이탈과 재등장, 오클루전 등에 의한 추적 실패를 방지하고 영상 내 객체별 행동 및 표정 인식 결과를 동일 객체에 지속적으로 연동하여 영상을 효율적으로 분석할 수 있다.

In computer vision, visual tracking method addresses the problem of localizing an specific object in video sequence according to the bounding box. In this paper, we propose a tracking method by introducing the feature correlation comparison into the siamese network to increase its matching identification. We propose a way to compute location of object to improve matching performance by a correlation operation, which locates parts for solving the searching problem. The higher layer in the network can extract a lot of object information. The lower layer has many location information. To reduce error rate of the object center point, we built a siamese network that extracts the distribution and location information of target objects. As a result of the experiment, the average center error rate was less than 25%.

영상 감시 시스템에서 특정 물체를 추적하기 위해서는 물체에 대한 영상정보를 빠른 시간 내에 정확하게 인식하고 추적하는 방법이 매우 중요하다. 단일 카메라를 이용해서 객체의 추적을 하게 될 경우 가려짐과 같은 문제로 인해 객체 추적의 한계가 존재하게 되고, 복수 카메라를 사용하는 경우 연속적으로 배치된 카메라를 통해 객체를 추적하게 된다. 그러나 객체추적이 완벽하게 이루어지지 않아 추적하고 있는 객체를 놓치는 경우가 발생한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 다수의 카메라를 관심영역 내에 설치해서 동시에 동일한 물체를 여러 각도에서 관찰하는 멀티 영상감시시스템과 같은 방법을 고려해야 한다. 물체 추적에 다수의 카메라를 이용할 경우 정보 취득이 용이하고, 보다 넓은 범위의 공간에서 정확도가 높은 판단을 내리는 것이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 도로 교차로에 다수의 카메라를 사용할 경우 공간투영기법인 호모그래피를 적용하여 자동차와 같은 동일한 물체를 인식하고 추적하기 위한 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

We propose a moving object extraction and tracking method for improvement of animal identification and tracking technology. First, we propose a method of merging separated moving objects into a moving object by using FCM (Fuzzy C-Means) clustering algorithm to solve the problem of moving object loss caused by moving object extraction process. In addition, we propose a method of extracting data from a moving object and a method of counting moving objects to determine the number of clusters in order to satisfy the conditions for performing FCM clustering algorithm. Then, we propose a method to continuously track merged moving objects. In the proposed method, color histograms are extracted from feature information of each moving object, and the histograms are continuously accumulated so as not to react sensitively to noise or changes, and the average is obtained and stored. Thereafter, when a plurality of moving objects are overlapped and separated, the stored color histogram is compared with each other to correctly recognize each moving object. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed algorithms through some experiments.
