  1. Real-time foreground object detection & tracking with moving camera P93922005 Martin Chang

  2. Motivation • More and more moving cameras • Handheld devices • Cell phone • PDA • Hard to track object with moving camera • Hard to learn background with moving camera

  3. Previous Work • Thompson, W.B. and Pong, T.C. Detecting moving objects. International Journal of Computer Vision, 4(1):39-57. (January 1990). • Stationary Camera • K Daniilidis, C Krauss, M Hansen, G Sommer. Real-Time Tracking of Moving Objects with an Active Camera. Real-Time Imaging, 1998. • Two degrees of freedom of a camera platform • E Hayman, JO Eklundh - Procs. Statistical Background Subtraction for a Mobile Observer. IEEE Intl. Conf. on Computer Vision. • Moving foreground object • static background • Mobile observer

  4. Steps • Find good feature to track • Track features • Classify foreground and background features • Decide region of foreground object • Track foreground object

  5. Video Demo

  6. Step 1: Find good feature to track • Finding good feature to track • Shi and Tomasi ‘s method

  7. Step 2: Track features • Optical flow

  8. Step 3: Classify foreground and background features • Classify feature points • Optical flow • Moving direction of feature • Length of moving direction • MTF of neighbor image patch • Doesn’t work, due to • With cheap camera • Low resolution video

  9. Idea: how to identify foreground features? 1/3 • Case 1: The camera rotates • The background image moves more Background Object

  10. Idea: how to identify foreground features? 2/3 • Case 2: The background moves • The background image moves more Background object

  11. Idea: how to identify foreground features? 3/3 • Case 3: The object moves • The foreground image moves more Background object

  12. Classify Features • KMeans • Hard to separate them well • Marginal KMeans • Filter unreliable features • Angle issue • 1° is similar to 359 °

  13. KMeans

  14. Marginal KMeans (Margin=1/2)

  15. Marginal KMeans (Margin=1/4)

  16. Step 4: Foreground Object Detection 1/2 • Two two-class problems • Classify foreground and background features • Cluster features • Calculate the occlusion rate • The region of foreground object should be • Compact • Less noise (background features)

  17. Foreground Object Detection 2/2 • Measure our confidence • Geometry approach • Check foreground and background regions

  18. Step 5: Foreground Object Tracking • Object detection • If foreground object is never detected Go to Step 1 • Object tracking • Go to Step 1

  19. Development Platform • Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 • Cheap webcam (USB 1.1) • OpenCV

  20. Future Work • Find parameters by machine learning • Detect finite candidate objects • Cue: color moment • Multiple object detection(!)

  21. Conclusion • The bottleneck is camera’s data transporting speed (USB 1.1) • Real time is possible • OpenCV is useful

  22. Demo

  23. Thanks!
