Abstract:
An apparatus for rapidly detecting an object of interest includes: a first object of interest detector configured to determine a region of an object of interest for an image, from which the object of interest is to be detected, by using a first training image; and a second object of interest detector configured to detect the object of interest from the region of the object of interest determined by the first object of interest detector by using a second training image, which is bigger in size than the first training image.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for detecting a person from an input video image with high reliability by using gradient-based feature vectors and a neural network. The human detection apparatus includes an image preprocessing unit for modeling a background image from an input image. A moving object area setting unit sets a moving object area in which motion is present by obtaining a difference between the input image and the background image. A human region detection unit extracts gradient-based feature vectors for a whole body and an upper body from the moving object area, and detects a human region in which a person is present by using the gradient-based feature vectors for the whole body and the upper body as input of a neural network classifier. A decision unit decides whether an object in the detected human region is a person or a non-person.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for recognizing a human in an image. The apparatus includes a learning unit and a human recognition unit. The learning unit calculates a boundary value between a human and a non-human based on feature candidates extracted from a learning image, detects a feature candidate for which an error is minimized as the learning image is divided into the human and the non-human using the calculated boundary value, and determines the detected feature candidate to be a feature. The human recognition unit extracts a candidate image where a human may be present from an acquired image, and determines whether the candidate image corresponds to a human based on the feature that is determined by the learning unit.
