行人检测技术综述

行人检测是计算机视觉中的研究热点和难点,本文对2005-2011这段时间内的行人检测技术中最核心的两个问题—特征提取、分类器与定位—的研究现状进行综述.文章中首先将这些问题的处理方法分为不同的类别,将行人特征分为底层特征、基于学习的特征和混合特征,分类与定位方法分为滑动窗口法和超越滑动窗口法,并从纵横两个方向对这些方法的优缺点进行分析和比较,然后总结了构建行人检测器在实现细节上的一些经验,最后对行人检测技术的未来进行展望.

A Survey on Pedestrian Detection

Pedestrian detection is an active area of research with challenge in computer vision.This study conducts a detailed survey on state-of-the-art pedestrian detection methods from 2005 to 2011,focusing on the two most important problems:feature extraction,the classification and localization.We divided these methods into different categories;pedestrian features are divided into three subcategories:low-level feature,learning-based feature and hybrid feature.On the other hand,classification and localization is also divided into two sub-categories:sliding window and beyond sliding window.According to the taxonomy,the pros and cons of different approaches are discussed.Finally,some experiences of how to construct a robust pedestrian detector are presented and future research trends are proposed.
