In real time video sequence, object segmentation and tracking method are actively applied in various application tasks, such as surveillance system, mobile robots, augmented reality. This paper propose a robust object tracking method. The background models are constructed by learning the initial part of each video sequences. After that, the moving objects are detected via object segmentation by using background subtraction method. The region of detected objects are continuously tracked by using the HSV color histogram with particle filter. The proposed segmentation method is superior to average background model in term of moving object detection. In addition, the proposed tracking method provide a continuous tracking result even in the case that multiple objects are existed with similar color, and severe occlusion are occurred with multiple objects. The experiment results provided with 85.9 % of average object overlapping rate and 96.3% of average object tracking rate using two video sequences.

Moving object detection is to detect foreground object different from background scene in a new incoming image frame and is an essential ingredient process in some image processing applications such as intelligent visual surveillance, HCI, object-based video compression and etc. Most of previous object detection algorithms are still computationally heavy so that it is difficult to develop real-time multi-channel moving object detection in a workstation or even one-channel real-time moving object detection in an embedded system using them. Foreground mask correction necessary for a more precise object detection is usually accomplished using morphological operations like opening and closing. Morphological operations are not computationally cheap and moreover, they are difficult to be rendered to run simultaneously with the subsequent connected component labeling routine since they need quite different type of processing from what the connected component labeling does. In this paper, we first devise a fast and precise foreground mask correction algorithm, "Neighbor Foreground Pixel Propagation (NFPP)" which utilizes neighbor pixel checking employed in the connected component labeling. Next, we propose a novel moving object detection method based on the devised foreground mask correction algorithm, NFPP where the connected component labeling routine can be executed simultaneously with the foreground mask correction. Through experiments, it is verified that the proposed moving object detection method shows more precise object detection and more than 4 times faster processing speed for a image frame and videos in the given the experiments than the previous moving object detection method using morphological operations.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop a deep learning-based personal protective equipment detection model for disaster prevention at construction sites, and to apply it to actual construction sites and to analyze the results. Method: In the method of conducting this study, the dataset on the real environment was constructed and the developed personal protective equipment(PPE) detection model was applied. The PPE detection model mainly consists of worker detection and PPE classification model.The worker detection model uses a deep learning-based algorithm to build a dataset obtained from the actual field to learn and detect workers, and the PPE classification model applies the PPE detection algorithm learned from the worker detection area extracted from the work detection model. For verification of the proposed model, experimental results were derived from data obtained from three construction sites. Results: The application of the PPE recognition model to construction site brings up the problems related to mis-recognition and non-recognition. Conclusions: The analysis outcomes were produced to apply the object recognition technology to a construction site, and the need for follow-up research was suggested through representative cases of worker recognition and non-recognition, and mis-recognition of personal protective equipment.

본 논문에서는 깊이 영상과 컬러 영상의 매칭을 통한 강인한 전경 객체 영역화 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 컬러 영상 기반 객체 영역화 알고리즘은 배경과 객체의 색상이 유사한 경우 정확한 객체 영역화가 어렵다. 깊이 영상을 이용하면 이러한 오 검출을 줄일 수 있지만, 깊이 영상 취득 장비의 오류로 인하여 검출되는 객체 외곽선이 컬러 영상에 비해 세밀하지 못한 단점이 있다. 따라서, 깊이 영상의 외곽선을 비교적 세밀한 컬러 영상의 외곽선에 매칭시킨다. 아울러, 서로 다른 센서에서 취득한 두 영상을 매칭하기 위하여, 정규화된 상호연관성(normalized cross correlation)을 유사도 척도로 사용한다. 실험을 통하여 제안하는 알고리즘이 전경 객체 영역화의 오 검출을 줄이며, 동시에 객체 외곽선을 충실히 복원함을 확인한다.

동영상 내에서 이동하는 객체를 추적하기 위해서는 우수한 객체 검출 방법이 필요하다. 이를 위하여, 본 논문에서는 연속된 영상에서의 인접한 프레임들을 이용하여 객체의 형태를 검출하고자 한다. 인접한 프레임들의 합성과 차를 이용하여 움직이는 객체의 대략적인 형태를 알아내고, 대략적인 형태를 이진화시킨 영상과 현재 프레임의 에지 영상과의 AND 연산을 통하여 객체의 형태를 알아 낼 수 있다. 그리고, 이 과정에서 생성되는 노이즈를 채움 연산과 영역화 연산을 통하여 제거할 수 있으며, 얻어진 객체의 크기 비율을 고려한 수직 투영을 통하여 다중 객체를 잘 분리해 낼 수 있었다.

In this study, we have proposed the method of moving area detection as the preprocessing step of moving object tracking system. First, we catch the two frames which are different at time in image sequence. We obtain the moving area by using their binary differential image. In differential image, the object area of previous and current frame is present. In the tracking system, the background is changed by camera motion. So, in this case we have to decide which moving area of object is current at time. We obtain the binary edge image of current frame by applying a threshold to the output of an edge detector. Then we performed logical AND operation between the edge image and differential image. As a result of this work moving area of object can be detected.

Embedded devices with the development of modern computer technology also began equipped with a variety of functions. In this study, to provide a method of tracking efficient face with a small instrument of resources, such as built-in equipment that uses an image sensor in recent years has been actively carried out. It uses a face detection method using the features of the MB-LBP in order to obtain an accurate face, specify the region (Region of Interest) around the face when the face detection for the face object tracking in the next video did. And in the video can not be detected faces, to track objects using the CAM-Shift key is a conventional object tracking method, which make it possible to retain the information without loss of object information. In this study, through the comparison with the previous studies, it was confirmed the precision and high-speed performance of the object tracking system.

A real-time detection and tracking of moving objects in video sequences is very important for smart surveillance systems. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for the detection of moving objects that is the entropy-based adaptive Gaussian mixture model (AGMM). First, the increment of entropy generally means the increment of complexity, and objects in unstable conditions cause higher entropy variations. Hence, if we apply these properties to the motion segmentation, pixels with large changes in entropy in moments have a higher chance in belonging to moving objects. Therefore, we apply the Clausius entropy theory to convert the pixel value in an image domain into the amount of energy change in an entropy domain. Second, we use an adaptive background subtraction method to detect moving objects. This models entropy variations from backgrounds as a mixture of Gaussians. Experiment results demonstrate that our method can detect motion object effectively and reliably.

본 연구에서는 실내 환경에서 드론의 측위를 위한 마커 인식 및 검출 기술을 소개한다. 기존 실내 측위를 위한 기술인 Global Positioning System이나 Wi-Fi를 이용한 삼각측량 기법은 실내 환경에서 각각의 성질로 인하여 사용하기 어려운 점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 2차원 바코드와 마커 등의 객체를 드론의 카메라를 이용한 실시간 영상 전송을 통하여 검출하여 위치 정보를 획득하는 기술을 소개한다. 실험에서는 드론의 카메라를 통하여 실시간 전송된 영상에서 OpenCV V2.4.10을 통하여 객체를 검출하였고, 카메라와 객체 사이의 거리와 바코드 크기에 따른 2차원 바코드의 검출 여부를 보였으며 15*15cm의 2차원 바코드는 비교적 잘 인식하였으나 비교적 작은 11*11cm의 2차원 바코드는 거리가 멀어질 수록 인식이 힘들어지는 결과를 보였다.
