: Reliably recognizing objects approaching on a collision course is extremely important. In this paper, a synthetic vision system is proposed to tackle the problem of collision rec...
Environmental monitoring applications present a challenge to current background subtraction algorithms that analyze the temporal variability of pixel intensities, due to the comple...
The visual effects of rain are complex. Rain consists of spatially distributed drops falling at high velocities. Each drop refracts and reflects the environment, producing sharp i...
In this paper, we propose a multimodal system for detecting human activity and interaction patterns in a nursing home. Activities of groups of people are firstly treated as intera...
We describe a vision system that monitors activity in a site over extended periods of time. The system uses a distributed set of sensors to cover the site, and an adaptive tracker...
