Plugin name: supProcessFilterPatchObjectDetection
Previous contributors: Étienne CORVÉE (1), Vasanth BATHRINARAYANAN Current contributor: Silviu-Tudor SERBAN
Interest: Our purpose is to be able to optimally detect people, faces and other body parts in video sequences.
Method: For feature selection we use a variant of LBP Features designed by (1). Adaboost is used for training the data and a cascade-model for detection.
Challenges: In most of the sequences we work with, generic S.o.t.A. detectors would fail due to the following variables:
– distortion due to the Lens and/or Point Of View of the camera
– poor resolution, low FPS
– light changes
– occlusions
As an example, in some of the video sequences people appear tilted as they get further from the centre of the scene and are missed by the regular detector.
