In this paper, we present a real-time robust multi-view pedestrian detection and tracking system for video surveillance using neural networks which can be used in dynamic environments. The proposed system consists of two phases: multi-view…
In moving camera videos, motion segmentation is commonly performed using the image plane motion of pixels, or optical flow. However, objects that are at different depths from the camera can exhibit different optical flows even if they share…
Motion blur is commonly used in game cinematics to achieve photorealism by modelling the behaviour of the camera shutter and simulating its effect associated with the relative motion of scene objects. A common real-time post-process…
The human ability to detect and segment moving objects works in the presence of multiple objects, complex background geometry, motion of the observer, and even camouflage. In addition to all of this, the ability to detect motion is nearly…
What can we learn about a scene by watching it for months or years? A video recorded over a long timespan will depict interesting phenomena at multiple timescales, but identifying and viewing them presents a challenge. The video is too long…
When dynamic objects are captured by a camera, motion blur inevitably occurs. Such a blur is sometimes considered as just a noise, however, it sometimes gives an important effect to add dynamism in the scene for photographs or videos.…
This paper proposes a two-stream flow-guided convolutional attention networks for action recognition in videos. The central idea is that optical flows, when properly compensated for the camera motion, can be used to guide attention to the…
In this thesis we address two related aspects of visual object recognition: the use of motion information, and the use of internal supervision, to help unsupervised learning. These two aspects are inter-related in the current study, since…
With advances in optical sensor technology, heterogeneous camera systems are increasingly used for high-resolution (HR) video acquisition and analysis. However, motion transfer across multiple cameras poses challenges. To address this, we…
Humans use context and scene knowledge to easily localize moving objects in conditions of complex illumination changes, scene clutter and occlusions. In this paper, we present a method to leverage human knowledge in the form of annotated…
Multi-view approaches to people-tracking have the potential to better handle occlusions than single-view ones in crowded scenes. They often rely on the tracking-by-detection paradigm, which involves detecting people first and then…
Abnormal event detection in videos is a challenging problem, partly due to the multiplicity of abnormal patterns and the lack of their corresponding annotations. In this paper, we propose new constrained pretext tasks to learn object level…
Objects moving at high speed along complex trajectories often appear in videos, especially videos of sports. Such objects elapse non-negligible distance during exposure time of a single frame and therefore their position in the frame is not…
Identifying independently moving objects is an essential task for dynamic scene understanding. However, traditional cameras used in dynamic scenes may suffer from motion blur or exposure artifacts due to their sampling principle. By…
This paper introduces an unsupervised framework to extract semantically rich features for video representation. Inspired by how the human visual system groups objects based on motion cues, we propose a deep convolutional neural network that…
Objects that move in response to the actions of a main character often make an important contribution to the visual richness of an animated scene. We use the term "secondary motion" to refer to passive motions generated in response to the…
Detection of moving sources over complicated background is important for several reasons. First is measuring the astrophysical motion of the source. Second is that such motion resulting from atmospheric scintillation, color refraction, or…
We present a method to estimate human motion in a global scene from moving cameras. This is a highly challenging task due to the coupling of human and camera motions in the video. To address this problem, we propose a joint optimization…
Video prediction is a fundamental task for various downstream applications, including robotics and world modeling. Although general video prediction models have achieved remarkable performance in standard scenarios, occlusion is still an…
Localization of street objects from images has gained a lot of attention in recent years. We propose an approach to improve asset geolocation from street view imagery by enhancing the quality of the metadata associated with the images using…
