본 논문에서는 압축된 비디오 신호의 움직임 벡터 및 DCT 계수로부터 움직임 객체를 추출하는 새로운 기법을 제시한다. 움직임 객체 추출에 관한 기술은 내용 기반 검색, 타겟트래킹 등 다양한 분야에서 필요로 한다. 움직임 객체 블록의 추출을 위해서 움직임 벡터와 DCT계수 가 선택적으로 이용되는 2-모드 방식의 기법이 제시된다. 또한, 제시된 기법은 DCT 변환 영역상의 계수들만을 이용하기 때문에 완전히 복호화된 정보를 필요로 하지 않는 장점을 갖는다. 제시된 기법을 바탕으로 몇 가지 테스터 영상에 대해 모의 실험을 실시한 결과 양호한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Latest advances in hardware technology and state of the art of mobile robot and artificial intelligence research can be employed to develop autonomous and distributed monitoring systems. And mobile service robot requires the perception of its present position to coexist with humans and support humans effectively in populated environments. To realize these abilities, robot needs to keep track of relevant changes in the environment. This paper proposes a localization of mobile robot using the images by distributed intelligent networked devices (DINDs) in intelligent space (ISpace) is used in order to achieve these goals. This scheme combines data from the observed position using dead-reckoning sensors and the estimated position using images of moving object, such as those of a walking human, used to determine the moving location of a mobile robot. The moving object is assumed to be a point-object and projected onto an image plane to form a geometrical constraint equation that provides position data of the object based on the kinematics of the intelligent space. Using the a priori known path of a moving object and a perspective camera model, the geometric constraint equations that represent the relation between image frame coordinates of a moving object and the estimated position of the robot are derived. The proposed method utilizes the error between the observed and estimated image coordinates to localize the mobile robot, and the Kalman filtering scheme is used to estimate the location of moving robot. The proposed approach is applied for a mobile robot in ISpace to show the reduction of uncertainty in the determining of the location of the mobile robot. Its performance is verified by computer simulation and experiment.

In this paper, we propose a method of tracking and capturing a moving object by a mobile robot. The position of the moving object is acquired from the relation through color-based image information from a 2-DOF active camera mounted on the mobile robot. The direction and rotational angular velocity of the moving object are estimated using a state estimator. A Kalman fiber is used as the state estimator for taking characteristics of robustness against noises and uncertainties included in the input data. After estimating the trajectory of the moving object, we decide on the optimal trajectory and plan the motion of the mobile robot to capture the target object within the shortest distance and time. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the simulations and experiments.

본 논문은 실시간 감시 카메라 시스템에서 움직임 검출 효율을 높일 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존 방법인 차영상에 의한 방법과 배경 영상에 의한 객체 추적 방법은 외부에서 촬영되는 동영상에서의 움직이고 있는 객체를 검출하는 것이 상당히 어려운 일이다. 제안 방법은 배경 영상을 바로 이전 프레임과의 차를 구하여 급격하게 움직임이 검출되지 않으면 기존 배경 영상을 유지하고 해당 영역에서 움직임 객체가 사려졌을 때를 감지하여 배경 영상을 갱신하는 방법을 제안하였다. 멧돼지와 사람을 판단하기 위해 검출 영역 안에 있는 움직임 객체 각각에 박스로 표시하였다. 실시간 영상으로 시뮬레이션 한 결과 기존 방법보다 우수한 결과를 보여주었다.

Automatic tracking of a moving object such as a person is a demanding technique especially in surveillance. This paper describes an experimental system for tracking a moving object on the ground by using a visually controlled aerial robot. A blimp is used as the aerial robot in the proposed system because of its locality in motion and its silent nature. The developed blimp is equipped with a camera for taking downward images and four rotors for controlling the progression. Once a camera takes an image of a specified moving object on the ground, the blimp is controlled so that it follows the object by the employment of the visual information. Experimental results show satisfactory performance of the system. Advantages of the present system include that images from the air often enable us to avoid occlusion among objects on the ground and that blimp’s progression is much less restricted in the air than, e.g., a mobile robot running on the ground.

The video device is used to gain lots of informations in indoor environment. The one of informations is the information to identify the moving object. The methods to identify the moving object are to recognize the face, the gait and to analyze the hue histogram of the clothes. The hue data is effective at the environment of multi-video. In this paper, we describe the existing research about to identify the moving object in the environment of multi-video and find its problems. finally, we present the enhanced methods to solve its problems. In the future, the method will be use for recognizing the location of object in ubiquitous home.

Robots are required to assist our activities in daily life. In this paper, we focus on arm movement to catch moving object as one of important tasks frequently performed by human. We propose an algorithm which enables a robot to perform human-like arm motion to catch a moving object. First we analyze human hand trajectories and velocity profiles to catch an object. From the experimental results, we extract some characteristics in the process of approaching and following a moving object and confirm that these are necessary to realize human-like motion. We then adopt an instantaneous optimal control method which evaluates the error and energy cost at each sampling step, and design two time-varying weight matrices to introduce human characteristic into robot motion. The matrix concerning the error is defined as a time-increasing ...

In this paper, we present an effective covariance tracking algorithm based on adaptive size changing of tracking window. Recent researches have advocated the use of a covariance matrix of object image features for tracking objects instead of the conventional histogram object models used in popular algorithms. But, according to the general covariance tracking algorithm, it can not deal with the scale changes of the moving objects. The scale of the moving object often changes in various tracking environment and the tracking window(or object kernel) has to be adapted accordingly. In addition, the covariance matrix of moving objects should be adaptively updated considering of the tracking window size. We provide a solution to this problem by segmenting the moving object from the background pixels of the tracking window. Therefore, we can improve the tracking performance of the covariance tracking method. Our several simulations prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Object detection is a fundamental yet challenging task in computer vision that plays an important role in object recognition, tracking, scene analysis and understanding. This paper aims to propose a multiproperty fusion algorithm for moving object detection. First, we build a scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) vector field and analyze vectors in the SIFT vector field to divide vectors in the SIFT vector field into different classes. Second, the distance of each class is calculated by dispersion analysis. Next, the target and contour can be extracted, and then we segment the different images, reversal process and carry on morphological processing, the moving objects can be detected. The experimental results have good stability, accuracy and efficiency.

최근 위치 측위 기술, 무선 통신 기술 등이 급속도로 발달하고 이동체 데이타가 널리 활용됨에 따라 이동체 데이타 스트림을 실시간으로 서비스하기 위한 실시간 위치 추적 시스템의 연구 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 시스템에서 기반 시스템으로 사용되는 MO(Moving Object) DBMS는 이동체 데이타 스트림 관리에 비효율적이고, 기존의 DSMS(Data Stream Management System)는 시공간 데이타를 효율적으로 처리하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이동체 데이타 스트림의 효율적인 실시간 관리를 위한 시공간 DSMS를 설계 및 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 시공간 DSMS는 스탠포드 대학의 STREAM(STanford stREam dAta Manager)을 기반으로 이동체 데이타 스트림의 실시간 관리와 시공간 질의 처리 기능 그리고 입력 부하를 줄이기 위한 필터링 기능을 지원하는 시스템이다. 특히, 시공간 DSMS에서 사용하는 시공간 연산자는 호환성을 위해서 OGC에서 제시한 "Simple Feature Specification for SQL" 표준 명세를 확장하여 SQL 형태의 표준 인터페이스를 지원한다. 마지막으로 본 논문에서 구현한 시공간 DSMS를 이동체 데이타 스트림의 실시간 위치 추적 관리가 필요한 실시간 모니터링 분야에 적용해 봄으로써 시스템의 효용성을 입증하였다.
