Embedding motion in model-based stochastic tracking

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Jean-Marc Odobez

Particle filtering (PF) is now established as one of the most popular methods for visual tracking. Within this framework, two assumptions are generally made. The first is that the data are temporally independent given the sequence of object states, and the ...

3D human body tracking using deterministic temporal motion models

Pascal Fua, Raquel Urtasun

There has been much effort invested in increasing the robustness of human body tracking by incorporating motion models. Most approaches are probabilistic in nature and seek to avoid becoming trapped into local minima by considering multiple hypotheses, whi ...

Motion likelihood and proposal modeling in Model-Based Stochastic Tracking

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Jean-Marc Odobez

Particle filtering is now established as one of the most popular methods for visual tracking. Within this framework, there are two important considerations. The first one refers to the generic assumption that the observations are temporally independent giv ...

3D Human Body Tracking using Deterministic Temporal Motion Models

Pascal Fua, Raquel Urtasun

By contrast, in this paper, we use temporal motion models based on Principal Component Analysis to formulate the tracking problem as one of minimizing differentiable objective functions. The differential structure of these functions is rich enough to yield ...

Capturing human motion using body-fixed sensors: Outdoor measurement and clinical applications

Kamiar Aminian, Bijan Najafi

Motion capture is mainly based on standard systems using optic, magnetic or sonic technologies. In this paper, the possibility to detect useful human motion based on new techniques using different types of body-fixed sensors is shown. In particular, a comb ...

Style-based Motion Synthesis

Daniel Thalmann, Pascal Fua, Ronan Boulic, Raquel Urtasun, Pascal Glardon

Representing motions as linear sums of principal components has become a widely accepted animation technique. While powerful, the simplest version of this approach is not particularly well suited to modeling the specific style of an individual whose motion ...

Towards a new Delta robot: an inverted Delta

In the way of developing fast parallel robots, the following work proposes a development of a new delta robot. This robot is a 3 d.o.f. parallel robot based on a Delta-like kinematics [Clavel 88, 92]. It is actually an inverted Delta in which the parallel ...

Spatio-Temporal Shadow Segmentation and Tracking

Touradj Ebrahimi, Elena Salvador

Shadow segmentation is a critical issue for systems aiming at extracting, tracking or recognizing objects in a given scene. Shadows can in fact modify the shape and colour of objects and therefore affect scene analysis and interpretation systems in many ap ...
