The method is based on morphological motion filter using connected operator and a proposed new filtering criterion. The morphological motion filter aims to detect motion which is distinct from that of the background, and thereby locates independently moving physical objects in the scenes. Experiments show that the algorithm can extract object from moving backgrounds efficiently.展开更多

The interdependence between rotational and translational constraints is considered, and a constraint unscented Kalman filter (CUKF) algorithm is utilized to achieve a smoothly stabilized motion. The method is applied to stabilize each video frame, and the results reveal that the proposed approach improves the stabilization performance in comparison with the trivial approach.展开更多

The characters, including the derivation process and parameter analysis, are discussed and the feasibility and the effectiveness are testified by the filtering performance compared with various filtering methods, such as the fast wavelet transform algorithm, the particle filtering method and our previously developed single degree of freedom vibration system filtering algorithm, according to simulation and practical approaches. Meanwhile, the comparisons indicate that a significant advantage of the proposed fast filtering algorithm is its extremely fast filtering speed with good filtering perfi^rmance. Further, the developed fast filtering algorithm is applied to the navigation and positioning system of the micro motion robot, which is a high real-time requirement for the signals preprocessing. Then, the preprocessing data is used to estimate the heading angle error and the attitude angle error of the micro motion robot. The estimation experiments illustrate the high practicality of the proposed fast filtering algorithm.展开更多

Due to the speed and the high similarity of the actions, the current algorithms cannot get high recognition rate. A new recognition method of the human action is proposed with the multi-scale directed depth motion maps(MsdDMMs) and Log-Gabor filters. According to the difference between the speed and time order of an action, MsdDMMs is proposed under the energy framework. Meanwhile, Log-Gabor is utilized to describe the texture details of MsdDMMs for the motion characteristics. It can easily satisfy both the texture characterization and the visual features of human eye. Furthermore, the collaborative representation is employed as action recognition by the classification. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm, which is applied in the MSRAction3 D dataset and MSRGesture3 D dataset, can achieve the accuracy of 95.79% and 96.43% respectively. It also has higher accuracy than the existing algorithms, such as super normal vector(SNV), hierarchical recurrent neural network(Hierarchical RNN).展开更多

In this paper, unscented Kalman filter is applied to estimate the time varying coefficients. The comparison between the estimation results of unscented Kalman filter and Kalman filter methods shows that unscented Kalman filter can more precisely represent the distribution of the spectral peaks in time-frequency plane than Kalman filter, and its time and frequency resolution is finer which ensures its better ability to track the local properties of earthquake ground motions and to identify the systems with nonlinearity or abruptness. Moreover, the estimation results of ARMA models with different orders indicate that the theoretical frequency resolving power of ARMA model which was usually ignored in former studies has great effect on the estimation precision of instantaneous spectrum and it should be taken as one of the key factors in order selection of ARMA model.展开更多
