Title: | Tracking moving objects across distributed cameras | Authors: | Nor Nadirah binti Abdul Aziz | Subject: | Video surveillance Closed-circuit television Electronic surveillance |
Year: | 2016 | Publisher: | Kuala Lumpur : International Islamic University Malaysia, 2016 | Abstract in English: | The rise of crime has led to the increasing of demand on automated video surveillance system due to the limitations in the ability of humans to vigilantly monitor the video surveillance footage. Video surveillance system is an important tool used in detection of snatch theft crime that includes detection and tracking of the objects which can provide detailed information about the objects` appearance and their biometric information. Tracking moving objects in multi-cameras environment is more challenging than a single camera view due to variation in illumination conditions, poses and viewing angles. Besides, there is no spatial continuity between cameras with non-overlapping view, thus is more challenging. Most of existing tracking methods perform well for single camera, but not for multiple cameras. Some of available trackers that work well for multi-cameras environment have high computational time. This thesis builds on prior studies to select the optimal features from the object`s appearance and to develop tracking algorithm for multiple non-overlapping cameras view that can provide the optimal trade-off between accuracy and speed. In this thesis, the method based on an adaptive Gaussian Mixture Model and background subtraction to extract the foreground object is presented. The proposed tracking algorithm is formulated based on visual appearance including Hue colour, YCbCr colour, texture, shape and edge features extracted from the upper and lower parts of body for correspondence management. Position cue is used in single-camera tracking to reduce the computational cost. The comparison between the effectiveness of the features is presented in the result section. The accuracy of the proposed framework for tracking the moving objects based on frame-based performance is very good, that is 95.97 percents with a speed of 43.967 frames per second (fps) for single camera. For two and three non-overlapping cameras, the overall accuracy based on frame-based performance is 99.29 percents and 99.73 percents with a speed of 26.30 fps and 17.54 fps respectively. The proposed algorithm is reliable for real-time performance based on the experimental results. | Degree Level: | Master | Call Number: | t TK 6680.3 N822T 2016 | Kullliyah: | Kulliyyah of Engineering | Programme: | Master of Science (Mechatronics Engineering) | URI: | http://studentrepo.iium.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/5309 | URL: | https://lib.iium.edu.my/mom/services/mom/document/getFile/kmDIeqSkwgmUs4b2yRXu9HbAx1xCz6xp20170504093022562 |
