A Novel System for Moving Object Detection Using Bionic Compound Eyes

Conventional moving target detection focuses on algorithms to improve detection efficiency. These algorithms pay less attention to the image acquisition means, and usually solve specific problems. This often results in poor flexibility and reus- ability. Insect compound eyes offer unique advantages for moving target detection and these advantages have attracted the attention of many researchers in recent years. In this paper we proposed a new system for moving target detection. We used the detection mechanism of insect compound eyes for the simulation of the characteristics of structure, control, and function. We discussed the design scheme of the system, the development of the bionic control circuit, and introduced the proposed mathe- matical model of bionic cqmpound eyes for data acquisition and object detection. After this the integrated system was described and discussed. Our paper presents a novel approach for moving target detection. This approach effectively tackles some of the well-known problems in the field of view, resolution, and real-time processing problems in moving target detection.

Moving Shadow Detection and Removal for Traffic Sequences

Segmentation of moving objects in a video sequence is a basic task for application of computer vision. However, shadows extracted along with the objects can result in large errors in object localization and recognition. In this paper, we propose a method of moving shadow detection based on edge information, which can effectively detect the cast shadow of a moving vehicle in a traffic scene. Having confirmed shadows existing in a figure, we execute the shadow removal algorithm proposed in this paper to segment the shadow from the foreground. The shadow eliminating algorithm removes the boundary of the cast shadow and preserves object edges firstly; secondly, it reconstructs coarse object shapes based on the edge information of objects; and finally, it extracts the cast shadow by subtracting the moving object from the change detection mask and performs further processing. The proposed method has been further tested on images taken under different shadow orientations, vehicle colors and vehicle sizes, and the results have revealed that shadows can be successfully eliminated and thus good video segmentation can be obtained.

Improved TQWT for marine moving target detection

Under the conditions of strong sea clutter and complex moving targets,it is extremely difficult to detect moving targets in the maritime surface.This paper proposes a new algorithm named improved tunable Q-factor wavelet transform(TQWT)for moving target detection.Firstly,this paper establishes a moving target model and sparsely compensates the Doppler migration of the moving target in the fractional Fourier transform(FRFT)domain.Then,TQWT is adopted to decompose the signal based on the discrimination between the sea clutter and the target’s oscillation characteristics,using the basis pursuit denoising(BPDN)algorithm to get the wavelet coefficients.Furthermore,an energy selection method based on the optimal distribution of sub-bands energy is proposed to sparse the coefficients and reconstruct the target.Finally,experiments on the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research(CSIR)dataset indicate the performance of the proposed method and provide the basis for subsequent target detection.

Method of moving target detection based on sub-image cancellation for single-antenna airborne synthetic aperture radar

The method of moving target detection based on subimage cancellation for single-antenna airborne SAR is presented. First the subimage is obtained through frequency processing is pointed out. The imaging difference of a stationary objects and moving object in the subimage based on the frequency division is analyzed from the fundamental principle. Then the developed method combines the shear averaging algorithm to focus on the moving target in the subimage, after the clutter suppression and the focusing position in each subimage is obtained. Next the observation model and the relative movement of the moving targets between the subimages estimate the moving targets. The theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the method is effective and can not only detect the moving targets, but also estimate their motion parameters precisely.

Moving object detection in framework of compressive sampling

Compressive sensing is a revolutionary idea proposed recently to achieve much lower sampling rate for signals.In the image application with limited resources the camera data can be stored and processed in compressed form.An algorithm for moving object and region detection in video using a compressive sampling is developed.The algorithm estimates motion information of the moving object and regions in the video from the compressive measurements of the current image and background scene.The algorithm does not perform inverse compressive operation to obtain the actual pixels of the current image nor the estimated background.This leads to a computationally efficient method and a system compared with the existing motion estimation methods.The experimental results show that the sampling rate can reduce to 25% without sacrificing performance.

An Improved Moving Object Detection Algorithm Based on Gaussian Mixture Models

Aiming at the problems that the classical Gaussian mixture model is unable to detect the complete moving object, and is sensitive to the light mutation scenes and so on, an improved algorithm is proposed for moving object detection based on Gaussian mixture model and three-frame difference method. In the process of extracting the moving region, the improved three-frame difference method uses the dynamic segmentation threshold and edge detection technology, and it is first used to solve the problems such as the illumination mutation and the discontinuity of the target edge. Then, a new adaptive selection strategy of the number of Gaussian distributions is introduced to reduce the processing time and improve accuracy of detection. Finally, HSV color space is used to remove shadow regions, and the whole moving object is detected. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can detect moving objects in various situations effectively.

Hardware Design of Moving Object Detection on Reconfigurable System

Moving object detection including background subtraction and morphological processing is a critical research topic for video surveillance because of its high computational loading and power consumption. This paper proposes a hardware design to accelerate the computation of background subtraction with low power consumption. A real-time background subtraction method is designed with a frame-buffer scheme and function partition to improve throughput, and implemented using Verilog HDL on FPGA. The design parallelizes the computations of background update and subtraction with a seven-stage pipeline. A stripe-based morphological processing and accounting for the completion of detected objects is devised. Simulation results for videos of VGA resolutions on a low-end FPGA device show 368 fps throughput for only the real-time background subtraction module, and 51 fps for the whole system, including off-chip memory access. Real-time efficiency with low power consumption and low resource utilization is thus demonstrated.

SDDNet:Infrared small and dim target detection network

This study focuses on developing deep learning methods for small and dim target detection.We model infrared images as the union of the target region and background region.Based on this model,the target detection problem is considered a two‐class segmentation problem that divides an image into the target and background.Therefore,a neural network called SDDNet for single‐frame images is constructed.The network yields target extraction results according to the original images.For multiframe images,a network called IC‐SDDNet,a combination of SDDNet and an interframe correlation network module is constructed.SDDNet and IC‐SDDNet achieve target detection rates close to 1 on typical datasets with very low false positives,thereby performing significantly better than current methods.Both models can be executed end to end,so both are very convenient to use,and their implementation efficiency is very high.Average speeds of 540+/230+FPS and 170+/60+FPS are achieved with SDDNet and IC‐SDDNet on a single Tesla V100 graphics processing unit and a single Jetson TX2 embedded module respectively.Additionally,neither network needs to use future information,so both networks can be directly used in real‐time systems.The well‐trained models and codes used in this study are available at https://github.com/LittlePieces/ObjectDetection.

A robust RGB-D visual odometry with moving object detection in dynamic indoor scenes

Simultaneous localisation and mapping(SLAM)are the basis for many robotic applications.As the front end of SLAM,visual odometry is mainly used to estimate camera pose.In dynamic scenes,classical methods are deteriorated by dynamic objects and cannot achieve satisfactory results.In order to improve the robustness of visual odometry in dynamic scenes,this paper proposed a dynamic region detection method based on RGBD images.Firstly,all feature points on the RGB image are classified as dynamic and static using a triangle constraint and the epipolar geometric constraint successively.Meanwhile,the depth image is clustered using the K-Means method.The classified feature points are mapped to the clustered depth image,and a dynamic or static label is assigned to each cluster according to the number of dynamic feature points.Subsequently,a dynamic region mask for the RGB image is generated based on the dynamic clusters in the depth image,and the feature points covered by the mask are all removed.The remaining static feature points are applied to estimate the camera pose.Finally,some experimental results are provided to demonstrate the feasibility and performance.

Energy efficient indoor localisation for narrowband internet of things

There are an increasing number of Narrow Band IoT devices being manufactured as the technology behind them develops quickly.The high co‐channel interference and signal attenuation seen in edge Narrow Band IoT devices make it challenging to guarantee the service quality of these devices.To maximise the data rate fairness of Narrow Band IoT devices,a multi‐dimensional indoor localisation model is devised,consisting of transmission power,data scheduling,and time slot scheduling,based on a network model that employs non‐orthogonal multiple access via a relay.Based on this network model,the optimisation goal of Narrow Band IoT device data rate ratio fairness is first established by the authors,while taking into account the Narrow Band IoT network:The multidimensional indoor localisation optimisation model of equipment tends to minimize data rate,energy constraints and EH relay energy and data buffer constraints,data scheduling and time slot scheduling.As a result,each Narrow Band IoT device's data rate needs are met while the network's overall performance is optimised.We investigate the model's potential for convex optimisation and offer an algorithm for optimising the distribution of multiple resources using the KKT criterion.The current work primarily considers the NOMA Narrow Band IoT network under a single EH relay.However,the growth of Narrow Band IoT devices also leads to a rise in co‐channel interference,which impacts NOMA's performance enhancement.Through simulation,the proposed approach is successfully shown.These improvements have boosted the network's energy efficiency by 44.1%,data rate proportional fairness by 11.9%,and spectrum efficiency by 55.4%.

Intelligent Mobile Video Surveillance System with Multilevel Distillation

This paper proposes a mobile video surveillance system consisting of intelligent video analysis and mobile communication networking. This multilevel distillation approach helps mobile users monitor tremendous surveillance videos on demand through video streaming over mobile communication networks. The intelligent video analysis includes moving object detection/tracking and key frame selection which can browse useful video clips. The communication networking services, comprising video transcoding, multimedia messaging, and mobile video streaming, transmit surveillance information into mobile appliances. Moving object detection is achieved by background subtraction and particle filter tracking. Key frame selection, which aims to deliver an alarm to a mobile client using multimedia messaging service accompanied with an extracted clear frame, is reached by devising a weighted importance criterion considering object clarity and face appearance. Besides, a spatial- domain cascaded transcoder is developed to convert the filtered image sequence of detected objects into the mobile video streaming format. Experimental results show that the system can successfully detect all events of moving objects for a complex surveillance scene, choose very appropriate key frames for users, and transcode the images with a high power signal-to-noise ratio （PSNR）.

Space moving target detection using time domain feature

The traditional space target detection methods mainly use the spatial characteristics of the star map to detect the targets, which can not make full use of the time domain information. This paper presents a new space moving target detection method based on time domain features. We firstly construct the time spectral data of star map, then analyze the time domain features of the main objects(target, stars and the background) in star maps, finally detect the moving targets using single pulse feature of the time domain signal. The real star map target detection experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect the trajectory of moving targets in the star map sequence, and the detection probability achieves 99% when the false alarm rate is about 8×10^(-5), which outperforms those of compared algorithms.

Highly robust ground moving target detection and relocation method for distributed satellites

The performance of ground moving target detection for distributed satellites will be affected signifi-cantly when there is an image registration error,clutter decorrelation and array error.In this paper,a new approach to moving target detection and relocation is proposed based on multi-channel and multi-pixel adap-tive signal processing in an image domain.First,multi-channel and multi-pixel joint data are equated to a simple array model.Given that there is an image registration error,the real steering vector of the moving target can be estimated through a space projection approach.The optimal beam forming approach is used to cancel clutter,and at the same time the cross-track velocity of the mov-ing target can be determined by searching for the peak value of the cost function.The moving target can then be relocated on the SAR image.The simulation results indicate that this method has a good robustness to image registration error,clutter decorrelation and array error.The detection performance and the estimation accuracy are significantly improved.
