Unsupervised segmentation of action segments in egocentric videos is a desirable feature in tasks such as activity recognition and content-based video retrieval. Reducing the search space into a finite set of action segments facilitates a faster and less noisy matching. However, there exist a substantial gap in machine's understanding of natural temporal cuts during a continuous human activity. This...
This paper proposes an effective Temporally Aligned Pooling Representation (TAPR) for video-based person re-identification. To extract the motion information from a sequence, we propose to track the superpixels of the lowest portions of human. To perform temporal alignment of videos, we propose to select the “best” walking cycle from the noisy motion information according to the intrinsic periodicity...
This work proposes a trajectory clustering-based approach for segmenting flow patterns in high density crowd videos. The goal is to produce a pixel-wise segmentation of a video sequence (static camera), where each segment corresponds to a different motion pattern. Unlike previous studies that use only motion vectors, we extract full trajectories so as to capture the complete temporal evolution of...
Understanding the saliency of keyframes in short casual/home-made videos containing redundant information is an important step towards the design of successful keyframe selection and summarization techniques for such videos. Therefore, we present an extensive user study focusing on saliency of keyframes in such short redundant videos. In our study, more than 200 users annotated 32 videos, altogether...
Human movement summarization and depiction from videos is to automatically turn an input video into high level action illustrations, in which the movements of the body parts are visualized using arrows and motion particles. Motion depiction compactly illustrates how specific movements are performed. Previous action summarization methods reply on 3D motion capture or manually labeled data, without...
The imagination of the online photographic community has recently been sparked by so-called cinema graphs: short, seamlessly looping animated GIF images created from video in which only parts of the image move. These cinema graphs capture the dynamics of one particular region in an image for dramatic effect, and provide the creator with control over what part of a moment to capture. We create a cinema...
Airborne vehicle detection and tracking systems equipped on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are difficult to develop because of factors like UAV motion, scene complexity and so on. In this paper, we propose a new framework of multi-motion layer analysis to detect and track moving vehicles in airborne platform. Moving vehicles are firstly detected by registration and temporal differencing to establish...
We address the problem of recognizing actions in reallife videos. Space-time interest point-based approaches have been widely prevalent towards solving this problem. In contrast, more spatially extended features such as regions have not been so popular. The reason is, any local region based approach requires the motion flow information for a specific region to be collated temporally. This is challenging...
In this paper, we describe a new dense spatio-temporal motion segmentation algorithm with application to tracking of people in crowded environments. The algorithm is based on state-of-the-art motion and image segmentation algorithms. We specifically make use of a mean shift image segmentation algorithm and two graph based motion segmentation algorithms. The resulting motion segmentation is on the...
In this paper an efficient method of small object localization is proposed that integrates detection and tracking. The system is initialized using a strong detector and then it locates the object over time using a weak detector and a temporal tracker. Both of strong and weak detectors are based on foreground-background segmentation. The strong detector is created from shape analysis of foreground...
Active contour model and mean shift are both motion detection algorithms. Each of them has its own merits and shortcomings. An active contour tends to be tracked by noise points and results in a false boundary. A mean shift vector always points to the edge area when the start point is around the object With initial curves given near the objects in each image automatically, we presented a new motion...
