Trajectory Analysis for Sport and Video Surveillance

Jacques Jacot, Florian Luisier, Pierre Roduit

In video surveillance and sports analysis applications, object trajectories offer the possibility of extracting rich information on the underlying behavior of the moving targets. To this end we introduce an extension of Point Distribution Models (PDM) to a ...

Real-Time Generation of Annotated Video for Surveillance

Touradj Ebrahimi

We present a system that generates annotated video in realtime. Moving objects are first automatically extracted by means of video analysis and then coded using MPEG4. Moreover, an MPEG7 description of object features is generated. This description is us ...

Surveillance Video for Mobile Devices

Touradj Ebrahimi

In this paper, we present a video encoding scheme that uses object-based adaptation to deliver surveillance video to mobile devices. The method relies on a set of complementary video adaptation strategies and generates content that matches various applianc ...

Critical Video Quality for Distributed Automated Video Surveillance

Large-scale distributed video surveillance systems pose new scalability challenges. Due to the large number of video sources in such systems, the amount of bandwidth required to transmit video streams for monitoring often strains the capability of the netw ...

Semi-supervised Meeting Event Recognition with Adapted HMMs

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Samy Bengio, Dong Zhang

This paper investigates the use of unlabeled data to help labeled data for audio-visual event recognition in meetings. To deal with situations in which it is difficult to collect enough labeled data to capture event characteristics, but collecting a large ...

Segregation mechanisms in a numerical model of a binary granular mixture

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

A simple phenomenological numerical model of a binary granular mixture is developed and investigated numerically. We attempt to model a recently reported experimental system where a horizontally vibrated binary monolayer was found to exhibit a transition f ...

Video surveillance using JPEG 2000

Touradj Ebrahimi, Frédéric Dufaux

This paper describes a video surveillance system which is composed of three key components, smart cameras, a server, and clients, connected through IP-networks in wired or wireless configurations. The system has been designed so as to protect the privacy o ...

Behavioral dynamics for pedestrians

Michel Bierlaire, Gianluca Antonini, Matthias Weber

The objective of this paper is to identify the behavioral issues arising in the context of pedestrian dynamics, analyze how they have been addressed in the literature and propose some potential research tracks. We particularly focus on an application in th ...

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 ...
