However,several challenges still remain in this area which is due to self-occlusions and the confusion between the left and right limbs during tracking. In this work,a head orientation detection step is introduced into the tracking framework to serve as a complementary tool to assist human pose estimation. With the face orientation determined,the system can decide whether the left or right side of the human body is exactly visible and infer the state of the symmetric counterpart. By granting a higher priority for the completely visible side,the system can avoid double counting to a great extent when inferring body poses. The proposed framework is evaluated on the HumanEva dataset. The results show that it largely reduces the occurrence of double counting and distinguishes the left and right sides consistently.展开更多

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC) is one of the predominant causes of cancer related casualties worldwide. Overall prognosis in this disease has improved to some extent with the advancements in therapeutic modalities but detection of primary tumor at its initial stage and prevention of relapse are the major targets to be achieved for further improvement in terms of survival rate of patients. Latest achievements in basic research regarding molecular characterization of the disease has helped in better perception of the molecular mechanisms involved in HNSCC progression and also in recognizing and tar-geting various molecular biomarkers associated with HNSCC. In the present article, we review the infor-mation regarding latest and potential biomarkers for the early detection of HNSCC. A detailed molecular characterization, ultimately, is likely to improve the development of new therapeutic strategies, potentially relevant to diagnosis and prognosis of head and neck cancers. The need for more accurate and timely disease prediction has generated enormous research interests in this field.展开更多

The main idea behind our work is to fuse multiple cues so that the major challenges, such as occlusion and complex background facing in the topic of crowd detection can be successfully overcome. Based on the assumption that human heads are visible, circle Hough transform (CHT) is applied to detect all circular regions and each of which is considered as the head candidate of a pedestrian. After that, the false candidates resulting from complex background are firstly removed by using template matching algorithm. Two proposed cues called head foreground contrast (HFC) and block color relation (BCR) are incorporated for further verification. The rectangular region of every detected human is determined by the geometric relationships as well as foreground mask extracted through background subtraction process. Three videos are used to validate the proposed approach and the experimental results show that the proposed method effectively lowers the false positives at the expense of little detection rate.展开更多

文摘Person search mainly consists of two submissions,namely Person Detection and Person Re-identification(reID).Existing approaches are primarily based on Faster R-CNN and Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)(e.g.,ResNet).While these structures may detect high-quality bounding boxes,they seem to degrade the performance of re-ID.To address this issue,this paper proposes a Dual-Transformer Head Network(DTHN)for end-to-end person search,which contains two independent Transformer heads,a box head for detecting the bounding box and extracting efficient bounding box feature,and a re-ID head for capturing high-quality re-ID features for the re-ID task.Specifically,after the image goes through the ResNet backbone network to extract features,the Region Proposal Network(RPN)proposes possible bounding boxes.The box head then extracts more efficient features within these bounding boxes for detection.Following this,the re-ID head computes the occluded attention of the features in these bounding boxes and distinguishes them from other persons or backgrounds.Extensive experiments on two widely used benchmark datasets,CUHK-SYSU and PRW,achieve state-of-the-art performance levels,94.9 mAP and 95.3 top-1 scores on the CUHK-SYSU dataset,and 51.6 mAP and 87.6 top-1 scores on the PRW dataset,which demonstrates the advantages of this paper’s approach.The efficiency comparison also shows our method is highly efficient in both time and space.
文摘Lots of progress has been made recently on 2 D human pose tracking with tracking-by-detection approaches. However,several challenges still remain in this area which is due to self-occlusions and the confusion between the left and right limbs during tracking. In this work,a head orientation detection step is introduced into the tracking framework to serve as a complementary tool to assist human pose estimation. With the face orientation determined,the system can decide whether the left or right side of the human body is exactly visible and infer the state of the symmetric counterpart. By granting a higher priority for the completely visible side,the system can avoid double counting to a great extent when inferring body poses. The proposed framework is evaluated on the HumanEva dataset. The results show that it largely reduces the occurrence of double counting and distinguishes the left and right sides consistently.
文摘Squamous cell cancer is the most common type of malignancy arising from the epithelial cells of the head and neck region. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC) is one of the predominant causes of cancer related casualties worldwide. Overall prognosis in this disease has improved to some extent with the advancements in therapeutic modalities but detection of primary tumor at its initial stage and prevention of relapse are the major targets to be achieved for further improvement in terms of survival rate of patients. Latest achievements in basic research regarding molecular characterization of the disease has helped in better perception of the molecular mechanisms involved in HNSCC progression and also in recognizing and tar-geting various molecular biomarkers associated with HNSCC. In the present article, we review the infor-mation regarding latest and potential biomarkers for the early detection of HNSCC. A detailed molecular characterization, ultimately, is likely to improve the development of new therapeutic strategies, potentially relevant to diagnosis and prognosis of head and neck cancers. The need for more accurate and timely disease prediction has generated enormous research interests in this field.
文摘This paper proposes a vision-based pedestrian detection in crowded situations based on a single camera. The main idea behind our work is to fuse multiple cues so that the major challenges, such as occlusion and complex background facing in the topic of crowd detection can be successfully overcome. Based on the assumption that human heads are visible, circle Hough transform (CHT) is applied to detect all circular regions and each of which is considered as the head candidate of a pedestrian. After that, the false candidates resulting from complex background are firstly removed by using template matching algorithm. Two proposed cues called head foreground contrast (HFC) and block color relation (BCR) are incorporated for further verification. The rectangular region of every detected human is determined by the geometric relationships as well as foreground mask extracted through background subtraction process. Three videos are used to validate the proposed approach and the experimental results show that the proposed method effectively lowers the false positives at the expense of little detection rate.
