Beyond the Static Camera: Issues and Trends in Active Vision
Maximizing both the area coverage and the resolution per target is highly desirable in many applications of computer vision. However, with a limited number of cameras viewing a scene, the two objectives are co...

Automatic Learning of Background Semantics in Generic Surveilled Scenes
Advanced surveillance systems for behavior recognition in outdoor traffic scenes depend strongly on the particular configuration of the scenario. Scene-independent trajectory analysis techniques statistically ...

Autonomous Virtual Agents for Performance Evaluation of Tracking Algorithms
This paper describes a framework which exploits the use of computer animation to evaluate the performance of tracking algorithms. This can be achieved in two different, complementary strategies. On the one han...

3D Human Motion Sequences Synchronization Using Dense Matching Algorithm
This work solves the problem of synchronizing pre-recorded human motion sequences, which show different speeds and accelerations, by using a novel dense matching algorithm. The approach is based on the dynamic...

Posture Constraints for Bayesian Human Motion Tracking
One of the most used techniques for full-body human tracking consists of estimating the probability of the parameters of a human body model over time by means of a particle filter. However, given the high-dime...

A 3D Dynamic Model of Human Actions for Probabilistic Image Tracking
In this paper we present a method suitable to be used for human tracking as a temporal prior in a particle filtering framework such as CONDENSATION [5]. This method is for predicting feasible human postures given...

Probabilistic Image-Based Tracking: Improving Particle Filtering
Condensation is a widely-used tracking algorithm based on particle filters. Although some results have been achieved, it has several unpleasant behaviours. In this paper, we highlight the...

A multidimensional scaling approach to explore the behavior of a texture perception algorithm
This paper presents a methodology for behavior characterization of an algorithm in terms of the parametric description of input images. To develop the work we have selected an algorithm which implements a mode...
