In this paper, we present a real-time method to detect moving objects in a rotating and zooming camera. It is useful for camera surveillance of fixed but rotating camera, camera on moving car, and so on. We first compensate the global motion, and then exploit the displaced frame difference (DFD) to find the block-wise boundary. For robust detection, we propose a kind of image to combine the detections from consecutive frames. We use the block-wise detection to achieve the real-time speed, except the pixel-wise DFD. In addition, a fast block-matching algorithm is proposed to obtain local motions and then global affine motion. In the experimental results, we demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can handle the real-time detection of common object, small object, multiple objects, the objects in low-contrast environment, and the object in zooming camera.

In this paper, we propose fast object detection method of the cars by applying YOLOv2(You Only Look Once version 2) and UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) while on the highway. We operated Darknet, OpenCV, CUDA and Deep Learning Server(SDX-4185) for our simulation environment. YOLOv2 is recently developed fast object detection algorithm that can detect various scale objects as fast speed. YOLOv2 convolution network algorithm allows to calculate probability by one pass evaluation and predicts location of each cars, because object detection process has simple single network. In our result, we could find cars on the highway area as fast speed and we could apply to the real time.

The purpose of this paper is to design the metal object detection system for drive inside protection. To do this, we propose the algorithm for designing the color filter that can detect the metal object using fuzzy theory and the algorithm for detecting area of the driver's face using fuzzy skin color filter. Also, by using the proposed algorithm, we propose the algorithm for detecting the metallic object candidate regions. And, the metallic object color filter is then applied to find the candidate regions. Finally, we show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method through some experiments.

Recently, the utilization of the object tracking algorithm based on the deep learning model is increasing. A system for tracking multiple objects in an image is typically composed of a chain form of an object detection algorithm and an object tracking algorithm. However, chain-type systems composed of several modules require a high performance computing environment and have limitations in their application to actual applications. In this paper, we propose a method that enables real-time operation in low-performance computing environment by adjusting the computational process of object detection module in the object detection-tracking chain type system.

In this paper, a new object detection method for FLIR images is proposed. The proposed method consists of intensity ranking feature and a classification algerian using the feature. The intensity ranking feature is a representation of an image, from which intensity distribution is regularized. Each object candidate region is classified as object or non-object by the proposed classification algorithm which is based on the intensity ranking similarity between the candidate and object training images. Using the proposed algorithm pixel-wise detection results can be obtained without any additional candidate selection algorithm. In experimental results, it is shown that the proposed ranking feature is appropriate for object detection in a FLIR image and some vehicle detection results in the situation of existing noise, scale variation, and rotation of the objects are presented.

YOLOv4 can be used for detecting parking vehicles in order to check a vehicle in out-door parking space. YOLOv4 has 9 anchor boxes in each of 13x13 grid cells for detecting a bounding box of object. Because anchor boxes are allocated based on each cell, there can be existed small observational error for detecting real objects due to the distance between neighboring cells. In this paper, we proposed YOLOv4 grid cell shift algorithm for improving the out-door parking vehicle detection accuracy. In order to get more chance for trying to object detection by reducing the errors between anchor boxes and real objects, grid cells over image can be shifted to vertical, horizontal or diagonal directions after YOLOv4 basic detection process. The experimental results show that a combined algorithm of a custom trained YOLOv4 and a cell shift algorithm has 96.6% detection accuracy compare to 94.6% of a custom trained YOLOv4 only for out door parking vehicle images.

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.

In this paper, we present a novel, rapid approach for the detection of brain tumors and deformity boundaries in medical images using a genetic algorithm with wavelet based preprocessing. The contour detection problem is formulated as an optimization process that seeks the contour of the object in a manner of minimizing an energy function based on an active contour model. The brain tumor segmentation contour, however, cannot be detected in case that a higher gradient intensity exists other than the interested brain tumor and deformities. Our method for discerning brain tumors and deformities from unwanted adjacent tissues is proposed. The proposed method can be used in medical image analysis because the exact contour of the brain tumor and deformities is followed by precise diagnosis of the deformities.

In this paper, we propose a real-time virtual model synchronization algorithm using object feature detection. The proposed algorithm may be useful to synchronize between real objects and their corresponding virtual models through object feature search in two-dimensional images. It consists of an algorithm to classify objects with colors individually, and an algorithm to analyze the orientation of objects with angles. We can synchronize the motion of the real object with the virtual model by providing the environment of moving the virtual object through the hand without specific controllers. The future research will include the algorithm to synchronize real object with unspecified shapes, colors, and directions to the corresponding virtual object.
