Publication number: 20220261577Abstract: A re-identification apparatus acquires a first image in which a tracking target entering an intersection is captured, and identifies the tracking target and targets having a predetermined positional relationship with the tracking target in the first image. The re-identification apparatus selects a camera to be used for re-identification of the tracking target based on a signal system of the intersection, and acquires a second image captured by the selected camera and one or more third images before or after the second image. The re-identification apparatus determines a target identified in the second image and the third images among the targets when identifying an object corresponding to the tracking target in the second image, and determines whether the re-identification of the tracking target is successful based on the targets identified in the first image and the target identified in the second image and the third images.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2021Publication date: August 18, 2022Inventors: Seung Woo NAM, Jang Woon BAEK, Joon-Goo LEE, Kil Taek LIM, Byung Gil HAN

Publication number: 20140177946Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for detecting a person from an input video image with high reliability by using gradient-based feature vectors and a neural network. The human detection apparatus includes an image preprocessing unit for modeling a background image from an input image. A moving object area setting unit sets a moving object area in which motion is present by obtaining a difference between the input image and the background image. A human region detection unit extracts gradient-based feature vectors for a whole body and an upper body from the moving object area, and detects a human region in which a person is present by using the gradient-based feature vectors for the whole body and the upper body as input of a neural network classifier. A decision unit decides whether an object in the detected human region is a person or a non-person.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2013Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicant: Electronics and Telecommunicatidons Research InstituteInventors: Kil-Taek LIM, Yun-Su CHUNG, Byung-Gil HAN, Eun-Chang CHOI, Soo-In LEE

Publication number: 20140169664Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for recognizing a human in an image. The apparatus includes a learning unit and a human recognition unit. The learning unit calculates a boundary value between a human and a non-human based on feature candidates extracted from a learning image, detects a feature candidate for which an error is minimized as the learning image is divided into the human and the non-human using the calculated boundary value, and determines the detected feature candidate to be a feature. The human recognition unit extracts a candidate image where a human may be present from an acquired image, and determines whether the candidate image corresponds to a human based on the feature that is determined by the learning unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2013Publication date: June 19, 2014Applicant: Electronics and Telecommunications Research InstituteInventors: Byung-Gil HAN, Yun-Su CHUNG, Kil-Taek LIM, Eun-Chang CHOI, Soo-In LEE

Publication number: 20030123730Abstract: In a document recognition system, a document structure analysis unit extracts a character image region from an input document image. A character string extraction unit extracts a character string image from the character image region. A character extraction unit extracts an individual character image from the character string image expressed in vertical lines by vertical line adjacency graphs by changing a pixel representation of the extracted character string image into a vertical line representation thereof.
