Due to the recent increase of the importance and demand of security services, the importance of a surveillance monitor system that makes an automatic security system possible is increasing. As the market for surveillance monitor systems is growing, price competitiveness is becoming important. As a result of this trend, surveillance monitor systems based on an embedded system are widely used. In this paper, an object detection algorithm based on an embedded system for a surveillance monitor system is introduced. To apply the object detection algorithm to the embedded system, the most important issue is the efficient use of resources, such as memory and processors. Therefore, designing an appropriate algorithm considering the limit of resources is required. The proposed algorithm uses two background models; therefore, the embedded system is designed to have two independent processors. One processor checks the sub-background models for if there are any changes with high update frequency, and another processor makes the main background model, which is used for object detection. In this way, a background model will be made with images that have no objects to detect and improve the object detection performance. The object detection algorithm utilizes one-dimensional histogram distribution, which makes the detection faster. The proposed object detection algorithm works fast and accurately even in a low-priced embedded system.

A joint template matching algorithm is proposed in this paper to reduce the high rate of miss-detection and false-alarm caused by the traditional template matching algorithm during the process of multi-object detection. The proposed algorithm can reduce the influence on each object by matching all objects together according to the correlation information among different objects. Moreover, the rate of miss-detection and false-alarm in the process of single-template matching is also reduced based on the algorithm. In this paper, firstly, joint template is created from the information of relative positions among different objects. Then, matching criterion according to normalized cross correlation is generated for multi-object matching. Finally, the proposed algorithm is applied to the detection of watermarks in bill. The experiments show that the proposed algorithm has lower miss-detection and false-alarm rate comparing to the traditional NCC algorithm during the process of multi-object detection.

객체 추적 알고리즘들은 객체 인식 결과를 이용한 관심영역 설정을 통해 영상 전체에 대한 연산이 수행되는 것을 방지하여 연산량을 줄일 수 있다. 따라서 객체 인식 알고리즘의 정확한 객체 검출은 객체 추적에서 매우 중요한 과정이다. 고정된 카메라를 기반으로 하여 이동하는 객체를 검출 하는 방법으로 배경 차 알고리즘이 널리 사용되어왔고 많은 연구에 의해 배경 모델링 방법이 개선되면서 배경 차 알고리즘의 성능이 개선되었으나 여전히 정확하지 못한 배경 모델링에 의한 객체 오검출의 문제를 가진다. 이에 본 논문에서는 제스쳐 인식에 주로 사용되는 모션 히스토리 이미지 알고리즘을 배경 차 알고리즘과 융합하여 기존의 배경 차 알고리즘이 가지는 문제점을 극복할 수 있는 다중 이동객체 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 융합 과정 추가로 수행시간이 다소 길어지나 실시간성을 만족하며 기존의 배경 차 알고리즘에 비해 높은 정확도를 가짐을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

3D object detection pipelines often incorporate RGB-based object detection methods such as YOLO, which detects the object classes and bounding boxes from the RGB image. However, in complex environments where objects are heavily cluttered, bounding box approaches may show degraded performance due to the overlapping bounding boxes. Mask based methods such as Mask R-CNN can handle such situation better thanks to their detailed object masks, but they require much longer time for data preparation compared to bounding box-based approaches. In this paper, we present a 3D object recognition pipeline which uses either the YOLO or Mask R-CNN real-time object detection algorithm, K-nearest clustering algorithm, mask reduction algorithm and finally Principal Component Analysis (PCA) alg orithm to efficiently detect 3D poses of objects in a complex environment. Furthermore, we also present an improved YOLO based 3D object detection algorithm that uses a prioritized heightmap clustering algorithm to handle overlapping bounding boxes. The suggested algorithms have successfully been used at the Artificial-Intelligence Robot Challenge (ARC) 2021 competition with excellent results.

Augmented Reality(AR) is the core technology of the future knowledge service industry. It is expected to be used in various fields such as medical, education, entertainment etc. Briefly, augmented reality technology is a technique in which a mapped virtual object is augmented when a real-world object is viewed through a device after mapping a real-world object and a virtual object. In this paper, we implemented object detection and tracking system, which is a key technology of augmented reality. To speed up the object tracking, the ORB algorithm, which is a lightweight algorithm compared to the detection algorithm, is applied. In addition, KNN classifier, which is a machine learning algorithm, was applied to detect a single object by learning multiple images.

This paper proposes an object detection method based on motion estimation using background subtraction in the fisheye images obtained through omni-directional camera mounted on the vehicle. Recently, most of the vehicles installed with rear camera as a standard option, as well as various camera systems for safety. However, differently from the conventional object detection using the image obtained from the camera, the embedded system installed in the vehicle is difficult to apply a complicated algorithm because of its inherent low processing performance. In general, the embedded system needs system-dependent algorithm because it has lower processing performance than the computer. In this paper, the location of object is estimated from the information of object's motion obtained by applying a background subtraction method which compares the previous frames with the current ones. The real-time detection performance of the proposed method for object detection is verified experimentally on embedded board by comparing the proposed algorithm with the object detection based on LKOF (Lucas-Kanade optical flow).

본 논문에서는 화면상 약속된 동작을 찾고 추적하는 알고리즘을 이용한 사용자 인터페이스를 제안한다. 현재 frame과 복수의 이전 frame간의 차영상을 이용하여 움직임 영역을 검출하고 약속된 제스처를 취하는 영역을 제어대상으로 인식한다. 이를 통하여 사용자가 장갑을 사용한다던지, 인종, 피부색등에 구애받지 않고 손동작 영역을 검출해 낼 수 있다. 또한 기존 색체 분포 추적 알고리즘을 개량하여 유사한 배경을 가로지르는 경우의 무게중심 위치의 정확성을 높였다. 그 결과 기존 피부색 인식 방법에 비해 약속된 손동작 인식률의 향상이 있었으며 기존 색체 추적 알고리즘에 비교하여 추적 인식률 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

Nowadays object tracking process becoming one of the most challenging task in Computer Vision filed. A CSR-DCF (channel spatial reliability-discriminative correlation filter) tracking algorithm have been proposed on recent tracking benchmark that could achieve stat-of-the-art performance where channel spatial reliability concepts to DCF tracking and provide a novel learning algorithm for its efficient and seamless integration in the filter update and the tracking process with only two simple standard features, HoGs and Color names. However, there are some cases where this method cannot track properly, like overlapping, occlusions, motion blur, changing appearance, environmental variations and so on. To overcome that kind of complications a new modified version of CSR-DCF algorithm has been proposed by integrating deep learning based object detection and CSRT tracker which implemented in OpenCV library. As an object detection model, according to the comparable result of object detection methods and by reason of high efficiency and celerity of Faster RCNN (Region-based Convolutional Neural Network) has been used, and combined with CSRT tracker, which demonstrated outstanding real-time detection and tracking performance. The results indicate that the trained object detection model integration with tracking algorithm gives better outcomes rather than using tracking algorithm or filter itself.

In this paper, a object detection and tracking algorithm is presented which exhibits robust properties for image sequences with complex background. The proposed algorithm is composed of three parts: moving object detection, object tracking, and motion analysis. The moving object detection algorithm is implemented using a temporal median background method which is suitable for real-time applications. In the motion analysis, we propose a new technique for removing a temporal clutter, such as a swaying plant or a light reflection of a background object. In addition, we design a multiple vehicle tracking system based on Kalman filtering. Computer simulation of the proposed scheme shows its robustness for MPEG-7 test image sequences.

능동 윤곽선 모델, 즉 스네이크 알고리즘은 물체 탐지 및 추적에 사용되는 유용한 알고리즘이다. 그러나 이 알고리즘은 요소별 가중치 부여 및 반복단계 시 많은 변수가 필요하고, 초기화 애로 및 계산상 불안정성 등의 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 개선하여 보다 효과적인 이동물체 탐지 및 추적을 위해 기존 스네이크 알고리즘의 외부 에너지를 개선한 새로운 에너지 보정 스네이크(ECS) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이를 위해 이동물체 이동 시 획득한 차영상 이미지를 4개의 방향성 이미지로 복사하고 각 이미지 픽셀에 대해 누적 연산 후 에너지 강화배열 내 저장 및 노이즈 제거를 통해 안정적인 이미지, 즉 외부 에너지를 획득한다. 또한 별도로 계산된 내부 에너지를 통해 얻어진 윤곽선(contour)을 외부 에너지에 병합함으로써 빠르고 쉬운 이동물체 탐지 및 추적이 가능하다. 제안한 알고리즘의 효용성을 확인하기 위해 3가지 상황을 대상으로 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 제안한 알고리즘이 기존 스네이크 알고리즘에 비해 탐지율은 평균 6$\sim$9%, 추적율은 6$\sim$11% 정도의 향상을 보였다.
