Task-Driven Active Vision for Security and Surveillance

Abstract

This report details progress that Teleos Research has made in the development of computer vision and visual attention mechanisms for the support of Security and Surveillance tasks. Theories and experimental results are presented in five related areas: figure-ground discrimination, tracking servos, object recognition based on parts extraction, object recognition based on local geometric structure, and object modeling. The report also discusses trends toward real-time software implementations of this type of vision technology on commodity processors.
