When examining current process of object tracking and search, objects were tracked by extracting them from image that was inputted through fixed single camera and objects were recognized through Zoom function to know detailed information on objects tracked. This study proposed system that expresses information on area that can seek and recognize object tracked as augmented reality by recognizing and seeking object by using multi camera. The result of experiment on proposed system showed that the number of pixels that was included in calculation was remarkably reduced and recognition rate of object was enhanced and time that took to identify information was shortened. Compared with existing methods, this system has advantage of better accuracy that can detect the motion of object and advantage of shortening time that took to detect motion.

This paper suggests effective object detection system for moving objects with specified color and motion information. The proposed detection system includes the object extraction and definition process which uses MCN(Multiple Color Normalization) and MCWUPC(Moving Color Weighted Unmatched Pixel Count) computation to decide the existence of moving object and object segmentation technique using signature information is used to exactly extract the objects with high probability. Finally, real time detection system is implemented to verify the effectiveness of the technique and experiments show that the success rate of object tracking is more than $89\%$ of total 120 image frames.

'Gesture' except for voice is the most intuitive means of communication. Thus, many researches on how to control computer using gesture are in progress. User detection and tracking in these studies is one of the most important processes. Conventional 2D object detection and tracking methods are sensitive to changes in the environment or lights, and a mix of 2D and 3D information methods has the disadvantage of a lot of computational complexity. In addition, using conventional 3D information methods can not segment similar depth object. In this paper, we propose object detection and tracking method using Depth Projection Map that is the cumulative value of the depth and motion information. Simulation results show that our method is robust to changes in lighting or environment, and has faster operation speed, and can work well for detection and tracking of similar depth objects.

감시 시스템은 지역의 특성에 따라 다양한 환경 및 설치 조건을 가지게 되며, 지능적 처리 요구에 따라 객체 분류를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 검출된 객체로부터 특징 정보의 자율적 추출 및 학습을 이용하여 객체를 분류하기 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 다양한 환경 및 설치 조건에서도 감시 시스템의 입력과 처리에 대한 추가적 보정 과정이 필요하지 않으며, 연속적으로 입력되는 객체의 형태와 움직임 정보를 효과적으로 활용하여 객체의 특징 추출 및 분류가 가능하게 된다.

This paper is a study on implementation of intelligent image surveillance system using context information and supplements temporal-spatial constraint, the weak point in which it is hard to process it in real time. In this paper, we propose scene analysis algorithm which can be processed in real time in various environments at low resolution video(320*240) comprised of 30 frames per second. The proposed algorithm gets rid of background and meaningless frame among continuous frames. And, this paper uses wavelet transform and edge histogram to detect shot boundary. Next, representative key-frame in shot boundary is selected by key-frame selection parameter and edge histogram, mathematical morphology are used to detect only motion region. We define each four basic contexts in accordance with angles of feature points by applying vertical and horizontal ratio for the motion region of detected object. These are standing, laying, seating and walking. Finally, we carry out scene analysis by defining simple context model composed with general context and emergency context through estimating each context's connection status and configure a system in order to check real time processing possibility. The proposed system shows the performance of 92.5% in terms of recognition rate for a video of low resolution and processing speed is 0.74 second in average per frame, so that we can check real time processing is possible.

In intelligent surveillance system, various methods for detecting abnormal behavior were proposed recently. However, most researches are not robust enough to be utilized for actual reality which often has occlusions because of assumption the researches have that individual objects can be tracked. This paper presents a novel method to detect abnormal behavior by analysing major motion of the scene for complex environment in which object tracking cannot work. First, we generate Visual Word and Visual Document from motion information extracted from input video and process them through LDA(Latent Dirichlet Allocation) algorithm which is one of document analysis technique to obtain major motion information(location, magnitude, direction, distribution) of the scene. Using acquired information, we compare similarity between motion appeared in input video and analysed major motion in order to detect motions which does not match to major motions as abnormal behavior.

In this paper, We propose a method of motion interpretation of pedestrian for active traffic signal control. We detect pedestrian object in a movie of crosswalk area by using the code book method and acquire contour information. To do this stage fast, we use parallel processing based on CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). And we remove shadow which causes shape distortion of objects. Shadow removed object is judged by using the hilbert scan distance whether to human or noise. If the objects are judged as a human, we analyze pedestrian objects' motion, face area feature, waiting time to decide that they have intetion to across a crosswalk for pdestrians. Traffic signal can be controlled after judgement.

Existing methods of object tracking use template matching, re-detection of object boundaries or motion information. The template matching method requires very long computation time. The re-detection of object boundaries may produce false edges. The method using motion information shows poor tracking performance in moving camera. In this paper, a robust object tracking algorithm is proposed, using projected motion and histogram intersection. The initial object image is constructed by selecting the regions of interest after image segmentation. From the selected object, the approximate displacement of the object is computed by using 1-dimensional intensity projection in horizontal and vortical direction. Based on the estimated displacement, various template masks are constructed for possible orientations and scales of the object. The best template is selected by using the modified histogram intersection method. The robustness of the proposed tracking algorithm has been verified by experimental results.

인터넷 시대에 접어들면서 웹 카메라를 이용한 보안 시스템의 개발이 활발하다 원격지에 설치된 카메라가 보내준 영상을 통하여 현재의 상황을 파악할 수 있으며 적절한 조치를 웹을 통해 취할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 카메라로부터 입력되어지는 입력영상과 배경영상의 차를 이용하여 움직임 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 배경영상은 시간에 따라 변화하기 때문에 변화된 시점부터 배경이미지 픽셀을 교체 해준다. 카메라에서 받아오는 영상을 배경영상과 입력영상으로 구분 한 다음 두 영상의 차를 구하여 영상의 변화점을 찾는다. 픽셀 검사는 모든 픽셀을 연산에 참여하는 방식을 탈피하여 일정한 간격을 두고 이미지의 픽셀을 검색하여 효율적인 객체의 윤곽점을 추출한다.

영상은 복잡한 객체들의 집합으로 이루어져 있기 때문에 영상에 포함된 객체를 분리하는 일은 컴퓨터 비전이나 인식 등 많은 분야에서 중요시 된다. 영상 처리 측면에서 객체를 분할하기 위해서 색상, 모양, 질감, 움직임 등 다양한 기법들이 이용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 정확한 색상의 비교를 위해서 CIE 색상 모델을 이용하고 있으며 이것을 기반으로 객체를 추출하고 있다. 그리고 추출된 객체의 해석과 검증을 위해서 모양 기반의 분석법을 이용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Pan/Tilt 카메라의 타겟팅(Targeting)과 포커싱(Focusing)을 위해 영상 내에 포함되어진 객체를 검출하기 위한 방법론을 제안하고자 한다. 객체를 인식하기 위해 CIE 색상 모델을 이용한 색상 매칭 기법을 제안하고 있다. 색상의 분포를 파악하기 위해서 CIE 모델이 생성해내는 Lab 블록을 통계적인 방법으로 분석한다. 그리고 분석된 결과는 CIE 블록 매칭(Bock Matching) 기법의 기준이 되며 이것을 이용해서 후보 객체 영역(Candidate Object Area)을 추출하게 된다. 추출된 후보 객체 영역을 검증하기 위해서 모멘트를 이용한 모양 기반의 분석을 활용하고 있다.
