For economical as well as environmental reasons, logistical planning and efficient assignment of transport vehicles in public transportation need a precise knowledge of passenger utilization. To provide reliable figures sophisticated counting methods are demanded. Previously developed systems, mostly using a single 2D image sensor or a 3D depth sensor, can not fully achieve the required accuracy. In this paper, we present a robust people counting algorithm, based on multi sensor data fusion. Our solution runs on embedded systems with reasonable requirements with respect to computational power. 3D distance information, obtained from the ToF system, is used to perform the basic detection of objects. Once detected, the objects get additional classification features exploiting the data provided by a RGB camera and an IR thermal sensor. We describe the current state of fusing and processing of the collected data including the detection, classification (vital, non-vital), as well as sequential tracking and counting. We provide current counting results along with insights to future development concepts to improve the stated algorithms especially in terms of vital, non-vital classification and object recognition.
To improve the performance of remote sensing images multiclass classification we propose two greedy algorithms of feature selection. The discriminant analysis criterion and regression coefficients are used as the meas...

The paper addresses the overall body of problems related to application of measures for matching stereo images in the measuring instruments used for assessment of road infrastructure condition. Selected stereo vision solutions applied in road pavement diagnostics have been explained. The main problem connected with the subject in question, namely the ambiguity of image matching, has been briefly described, and the matching algorithms commonly used have been characterised. The following measures of matching have been discussed: Sum of Absolute Differences (SAD), Zero Mean Sum of Squared Differences (ZSSD) as well as Covariance-Variance (CoVar). The studies conducted in the field addressed in the article concerned efficiency of stereo image matching for the aforementioned measures of matching. The relevant measurements were performed using images developed as outcomes of field surveys of the road infrastructure condition. The three-dimensional road pavement mapping thus obtained was compared with the mapping based on direct measurements using a dedicated diagnostic station.

A single training session of tennis requires 30-40 balls and these scattered balls have to be collected at the end of each session which costs time and induces unnecessary physical stress on players. This paper proposes a method to retrieve the balls which are scattered in the Tennis court back to the user. The proposed method comprises imageprocessing techniques for object localization and the adaptation of Dijkstra's algorithm for optimum path planning for efficient navigation. Both localization and the path planning algorithms are developed on a Python platform and robot's differential drive system is controlled by a microcontroller. Communication between robot and the computer is established through Wi-Fi. Novel development of this research is the implementation of the global view method for a vast range of image acquisition and verifying its suitability in Tennis field. In order to collect balls efficiently, an adaption of an existing mechanism is proposed. Results show that the mechanism is 80% efficient in collecting balls and 100% efficient in object identification for a given environmental condition.

Facial recognition is one of the most used biometric technologies in automated systems which ensure a person's identity for authorizes access and monitoring. The acceptance of face use has several advantages over other biometric technologies since it is natural, it does not require sophisticated equipment, data acquisition is based on non-invasive approaches, and it can be done remotely, cooperatively or not. Although many facial recognition studies have been done, problems with light variation, facial occlusion, position, expression, and aging are still challenges, because they influence the performance of facial recognition systems and motivate the development of more reliable recognition systems that deal with these problems. In this paper, we describe the Multi-Scale Local Mapped Pattern (MSLMP) applied for facial recognition. Techniques based on genetic algorithms and imageprocessing were applied to increase the performance of the method. The obtained results reach up to 100% of accuracy for some face Database. A very difficult database to deal is the MUCT database which was created in 2010 with the aim of providing images with a high variation of lighting, age, positions, and ethnicities in the facial biometry literature, which makes it a highly difficult database in relation to automated recognition. A new processing technique was developed based on the average gray levels of the images of the database for deal with difficult databases like MUCT. The results obtained with our techniques for MUCT database are superior to results obtained for recognition techniques applied to this database available in the literature.

Aerial targets such as missiles and aircrafts at far distance projected on image plane as point or small targets in infra-red and visible video. These targets lack apriori information about target dynamic, shape and size. Detection and tracking of such targets has been reported challenging task Hence, point or small size target detection algorithms become focus of long range detection and tracking systems. Generally, pre-processing is carried out on the input frame to predict the background and consequently enhance the target signature. In some scenario, post-processingalgorithms are also required to reduce the false alarms. In this paper, we propose an efficient and innovative scheme for real-time implementation of point or small size target detection algorithm on PowerPC Single-Board Computer (SBC) by utilizing the parallel computing feature of AltiVec vector processing unit to achieve real-time processing. Results demonstrate the real-time processing of video with hardware results matching the simulation results.

image registration, the task of aligning two images, is a fundamental operation for applications like image stitching or image comparison. In our project in surveillance for route clearance operations, a drone will be used to detect suspicious people and vehicles. This paper presents an approach for real-time image alignment of video images acquired by a moving camera. The high correlation between successive images allows for relatively simple algorithms. We considered region segmentation as an alternative to the more classical corner or interest point detectors and evaluated the appropriateness of connected component labeling with a connectivity defined by the gray-level similarity between neighboring pixels. Real-time processing is intended thanks to a very fast segment-based (as opposed to pixel-based) connected component labeling. The regions, even if not always pleasing the human eye, proved stable enough to be linked across images by trivial features such as the area and the centroid. The vector shifts between matching regions were filtered and modeled by an affine transform. The paper discusses the execution time obtained by this feasibility study for all the steps needed for image registration and indicates the planned improvements to achieve real-time.

Bottom terminated circuit components with their low cost, improved signal speeds and good thermal performances have made the use of these elements increasingly widespread in recent years. However, in the post assembly inspection of these components solder voids can be encountered at a level of effecting the functionality and reliability of the board. It is difficult to detect solder voids manually by visual inspection;therefore x-ray systems have to be used for the detection of solder voids. Solder voids can not be accurately detected with the software on some existing low resolution x-ray control system, a manual adjustment was required on the received images. In this study;images received from low resolution x-ray device were processed with the help of various imageprocessingalgorithms and a graphical user interface program that allows automotic detection of different tyoes of solder voids was created. The work has been proven by using real x-ray images, which yield more accurate results than the existing x-ray software.
