Beyond static detectors: a Bayesian approach to fusing long-term motion with appearance for robust people detection in highly cluttered scenes

Abstract

In this work we present a framework for robust people de-tection in highly cluttered scenes with low resolution im-age sequences. Our model utilises both human appearance and their long-term motion information through a fusion formulated in a Bayesian framework. In particular, peo-ple appearance is modeled by histograms of oriented gra-dients. Motion information is computed via an improved background modeling by spatial motion constrains. Exper-iments demonstrate that our method reduces significantly the false positive rate compared to that of a state of the art human detector under very challenging conditions.
