본 논문은 모델기반 다중이동물체 추적을 위한 모델생성 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 배경영상에 이동물체가 초기 진입했을 때의 초기모델생성 단계와 이동물체 추적 단계에서의 모델 갱신 단계로 구분하였다. 초기모델생성 단계에서는 차영상과 클러스터링 기법을 이용하여 분할된 분할영상과 현재프레임 영상에 대한 윤곽선 영상과의 로직 AND 연산을 수행하여 초기모델을 생성하였다. 모델갱신 단계에서는 하우스돌프 거리(Hausdorff Distance)와 2D-Logarithmic 탐색 알고리즘을 이용하여 추적중인 이동물체의 형태변화에 적응할 수 있도록 매 프레임 마다 새로운 모델을 갱신하였다. 실험은 도로에서 주행하는 자동차를 대상으로 도_의 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 도로에서 주행하는 자동차의 진입방향과 추적 대상 수가 불규칙한 경우에도 모델생성이 98% 이상 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다.

To effectively use these functions many kinds of human-phone interface are used such as touch, voice, and gesture. However, the most important touch interface cannot be used in case of hand disabled person or busy both hands. Although eye tracking is a superb human-computer interface method, it has not been applied to smartphones because of the small screen size, the frequently changing geometric position between the user's face and phone screen, and the low resolution of the frontal cameras. In this paper, a new eye tracking method is proposed to act as a smartphone user interface. To maximize eye image resolution, a zoom lens and three infrared LEDs are adopted. Our proposed method has following novelties. Firstly, appropriate camera specification and image resolution are analyzed in order to smartphone based gaze tracking method. Secondly, facial movement is allowable in case of one eye region is included in image. Thirdly, the proposed method can be operated in case of both landscape and portrait screen modes. Fourthly, only two LED reflective positions are used in order to calculate gaze position on the basis of 2D geometric relation between reflective rectangle and screen. Fifthly, a prototype mock-up design module is made in order to confirm feasibility for applying to actual smart-phone. Experimental results showed that the gaze estimation error was about 31 pixels at a screen resolution of $480{\times}800$ and the average hit ratio of a $5{\times}4$ icon grid was 94.6%.

본 논문에서는 스테레오 카메라 추적을 이용한 모바일 3차원 디스플레이 상의 실시간 증강현실 프레임웍에 대하여 기술한다. 모델 기반 추적 방법에 기초하여 카메라 포즈는 스테레오 카메라 간의 기하 관계를 만족하도록 동시 추정된다. 동시 추정된 카메라 포즈를 통해 가상 콘텐츠는 교정된 스테레오 영상에 올바르게 증강된다. 스테레오 카메라 추적과 스테레오 영상 교정은 서로 다른 쓰레드에서 수행하고, 영상 형식 변환 및 스테레오 영상 교정은 GPU로 고속으로 처리함으로써 실시간으로 수행된다. 제안된 프레임웍은 스테레오 카메라와 3차원 디스플레이가 장착된 스마트폰에서 구현되었다.

2D 영상의 특징점을 추적하는 이산동적 모델을 고안한다. 종래의 스네이크 접근은 내외 추진력으로 구성된 에너지함수를 최소화하도록 구획을 변형시켜가면서 영상 내의 원하는 특징에 밀착시켜간다. 이 때 스네이크화소를 중심한 인접화소군은 사각형 같은 평면 2차 행렬이다. 본 논문에서는 유사 특성점들을 상호 연결하는 모델 구조를 제시한다. 에너지모델은 그 국부최소점이 활성처리에 유용한 교차 해법에 적합하도록 설계한다. 추적시 선 형태의 1차 행렬 블록을 사용한다. 진행 방향의 반대 끝 라인으로부터 굴곡상태를 만족하는 시발점들을 선정하고 에너지 최소처리를 통해 이웃 라인으로 순차 자동 이동한다. 추적 경로는 상승 하강점 또는 극대 극소점과 같은 굴곡 한계에 의존한다. 이와 같은 층위적 접근은 인접데이터 라인 사이에 수직 또는 수평 방향으로 높은 상관성을 갖는 일방향 특성이 있는 디지털 영상의 특징점 추적에 유용하다. 그리고 인체 경동맥초음파영상에서 그 내 외막 시점을 추적하는 실험으로 알고리즘의 효과를 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose image process modeling as a part of location based surveillance system for unauthorized target recognition and tracking in harbor, airport, military zone. For this, we compress and store background image in lower resolution and perform object extraction and motion tracking by using sobel edge detection and difference picture method between real images and a background image. In addition to, we use Independent Component Analysis Neural Network for moving target recognition. Experiments are performed for object extraction and tracking of moving targets on road by using static camera in 20m height building and it shows the robust results.

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.

In a conventional camera system, a target tracking system consists of a camera part and a image processing part. However, in the field of the real time image processing, the vision chip for edge detection which was made by imitating the algorithm of humanis retina is superior to the conventional digital image processing systems because the human retina uses the parallel information processing method. In this paper, we present a high speed target tracking system using the function of the CMOS vision chip for edge detection.

The Intelligent Space(ISpace) provides challenging research fields for surveillance, human-computer interfacing, networked camera conferencing, industrial monitoring or service and training applications. ISpace is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. According to the cooperation of many intelligent devices, the environment, it is very important that the system knows the location information to offer the useful services. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human following by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in ISpace, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. And the article presents the integration of color distributions into particle filtering. Particle filters provide a robust tracking framework under ambiguity conditions. We propose to track the moving objects by generating hypotheses not in the image plan but on the top-view reconstruction of the scene. Comparative results on real video sequences show the advantage of our method for multi-object tracking. Also, the method is applied to the intelligent environment and its performance is verified by the experiments.

This paper introduces a position-based robust visual servoing method which is developed for operation of a human-like robot with two arms. The proposed visual servoing method utilizes SIFT algorithm for object detection and CAMSHIFT algorithm for object tracking. While the conventional CAMSHIFT has been used mainly for object tracking in a 2D image plane, we extend its usage for object tracking in 3D space, by combining the results of CAMSHIFT for two image plane of a stereo camera. This approach shows a robust and dependable result. Once the robot's task is defined based on the extracted 3D information, the robot is commanded to carry out the task. We conduct several position-based visual servoing tasks and compare performances under different conditions. The results show that the proposed visual tracking algorithm is simple but very effective for position-based visual servoing.

In this paper, we propose the novel tracking method which uses the weighted discriminative correlation filter (DCF). We also propose the PSPR instead of conventional PSR as tracker performance evaluation method. The proposed tracking method uses multiple DCF to estimates the target position. In addition, our proposed method reflects more weights on the correlation response of the tracker which is expected to have more performance using PSPR. While existing multi-DCF-based tracker calculates the final correlation response by directly summing correlation responses from each tracker, the proposed method acquires the final correlation response by weighted combining of correlation responses from the selected trackers robust to given environment. Accordingly, the proposed method can provide high performance tracking in various and complex background compared to multi-DCF based tracker. Through a series of tracking experiments for various video data, the presented method showed better performance than a single feature-based tracker and also than a multi-DCF based tracker.
