  1. Real-time Tracking of MultiplePeople Using Stereo David Beymer Bob Bolles Kurt Konolige Chris Eveland Artificial Intelligence Center SRI International

  2. Problem: people tracking for surveillance • return coarse 3D locations of people • real-time on standard hardware • multiple people in scene • stationary camera

  3. Approach • consider: template-based tracking • maintain template of object • correlation used to update object position • template is recursively updated to handle changing object appearance • limitations/problems 1) object initialization/detection 2) template drift

  4. Goal: add modality of stereo • segmentation: background subtraction on stereo disparities to detect foreground • detection: person templates encoding head and torso shape • tracking: • person templates used to avoid drift • stereo segmentation used to add “support” template left background disparities foreground

  5. Approach • detection • segment foreground into depth layers • correlate with person templates • tracking • intensity and "support" templates are recursively updated • Kalman filtering on person location in 3D • person templates used to avoid drift

  7. Hardware two CMOS cameras low power (150mW), inexpensive ($100 components) adjustable baseline: 2.7'' to 6.2'' in 1'' increments another version with DSP processing onboard Software stereo algorithm is area correlation based optimized C and MMX code 20 Hz on 320x240 image, 24 disparities, 400 MHz Pentium II Stereo module: SRI's Small Vision System (SVS)

  8. SVS Stereo Results left right notation: current disparities background estimate disparities

  9. Background subtraction • look for disparities closer than background • using stereo disparities versus intensities • less sensitive to lighting changes, shadows • can segment people at different depths more computationally expensive tends to blur & expand object boundaries

  10. Handling scale • idea: range info from stereo can be used to fix scale of processing avoid search over scale parameter • person width is proportional to disparity • from similar triangles: • stereo equation: d: disparity b: baseline K: constant

  11. Detection

  12. Detection example • during detection, extract intensity and “support” template from layer(x,y)

  13. Tracking -- coordinate space image 3D (x, disparity)(X, Z)

  14. Tracking Steps • prediction • predict Kalman filter (X, Z) • predict person disparity • segmentation • select foreground layer around predicted disparity • localization • correlate gray level template against left image, weighted by support template [coarse localization] • correlate head/torso shape template against segmented foreground layer [re-centering step that addresses template drift] • update • Kalman filter • recursive update of intensity and support templates

  17. Tracking: quantitative results

  18. Evaluating use of stereo in tracker • Experiment: disable stereo in tracker • code modifications: • disable re-centering step • weighted intensity correlation unweighted correlation • results: • mean tracking rate (TR) drops 4% • mean false positive rate (FP) increases from 3% to 10% • (qualitative) template drift causes people to be lost and re-detected

  19. Conclusion • Stereo is an effective segmentation tool: • detection: provides a foreground layer divided into different depth layers • tracking: helps to avoid template drift by focusing on foreground pixels at object’s depth • Combine segmentation with priors on person shape (i.e. head/torso templates) for person localization.
