Pedestrian Detection

Authors: Michael Del Rose; Philip Frederick; TACOM RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING CENTER WARREN MI
Abstract:
Pedestrian detection has been an active topic for several years. Many types of sensors and algorithms have been explored to improve pedestrian detection with varying levels of success. Currently, the pedestrian detection program within the Intelligent Systems Directorate at the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC), Warren, MI, concentrates on stereo vision systems, including stereo gray scale, stereo color, and stereo infrared. Both human detection from a single framed, stereo-paired image and tracking using a sequence of stereo-paired images are investigated. This paper discusses the current and future state of these activities.
