Mutual occlusions among targets can cause track loss or target position deviation, because the observation likelihood of an occluded target may vanish even when we have the estimated location of the target. This paper presents a novel probability framework for multitarget tracking with mutual occlusions. The primary contribution of this work is the introduction of a vectorial occlusion variable as part of the solution. The occlusion variable describes occlusion states of the targets. This forms the basis of the proposed probability framework, with the following further contributions: 1) Likelihood: A new observation likelihood model is presented, in which the likelihood of an occluded target is computed by referring to both of the occluded and occluding targets. 2) Priori: Markov random field (MRF) is used to model the occlusion priori such that less likely "circular" or "cascading" types of occlusions have lower priori probabilities. Both the occlusion priori and the motion priori take into consideration the state of occlusion. 3) Optimization: A realtime RJMCMC-based algorithm with a new move type called "occlusion state update" ispresented. Experimental results show that the proposed framework can handle occlusions well, even including long-duration full occlusions, which may cause tracking failures in the traditional methods.

Human object extraction from infrared image has broad applications, and has become an active research area in imageprocessing community. Combined with chaos differential evolution (CDE) algorithm and morphological operators, a novel infrared human target extraction method is proposed based on nonextensive fuzzy entropy. Firstly, the image was transformed into a fuzzy domain by fuzzy membership function, and the image nonextensive fuzzy entropy was constructed. Then, the image was segmented by thresholding based on the maximum entropy principle and the pseudoadditivity rule of nonextensive entropy. In order to reduce the search time of optimal threshold selection, the CDE algorithm was presented. Finally, the object was extracted using morphological operators to denoise, fill cavity on the threshold segmented image. Experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient and requires less computation time.

Thresholding-based techniques have been widely used in image segmentation. The selection of appropriate threshold is a very significant issue for image thresholding. In this paper, a new image histogram thresholding method based on fuzzy partition and maximum correlation criterion is presented. In the proposed approach, the regions, i.e. object and background, are considered ambiguous in nature, and hence the regions are transformed into fuzzy domain with membership functions. Then, the fuzzy correlations about regions are constructed and the optimal threshold is determined by searching an optimal parameter combination of the membership functions such that the correlation of the fuzzy partitions is maximized. Since the exhaustive search for all fuzzy parameter combinations is too costly, the differential evolution algorithm is introduced into fuzzy correlation image segmentation to solve this optimal problem adaptively. Experimental results on general images and infrared images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper considers the application of feature-based simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) using a random finite sets (RFS) framework for an autonomous underwater vehicle. SLAM allows for reduction in localisation error by tracking features which provide a fixed external reference. The SLAM problem is addressed here using a single-cluster probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter. The filter uses a particle approximation for the vehicle position with a conditional Gaussian mixture PHD for the feature map. Map features are selected as unique point features generated from a stereo camera on-board the vehicle. We demonstrate the improvement in localisation applying the algorithm to a dataset obtained in an indoor test tank.

Context data is one of most important parts of every context-aware system. Context data is not only trigger of events but also result of these events. So, privacy of context is one of important issue of context-aware system. Established methods of privacy like RBAC are not efficient to context data because these methods cannot control context data itself. So, some methods add abstraction ontology to access control framework. Abstraction ontology control expose of context data. But, using ontology to control expose of context data also have some problems. One is reliability of abstracted value and the other is performance of context data. In this paper, we suggest abstraction based access control system which minimizes abstraction overhead. To do this, we classify context data newly first. Classification of context data is based on abstraction method. And then we propose abstraction method of context data. Few context data use abstraction ontology. But, many of context data do not use abstraction ontology and abstraction of these context data reduces abstraction cost.
