Computer Vision Systems in Health and Safety Monitoring
Abstract
Computer vision systems can play a role in providing care to individuals living with physical or cognitive disability. In this talk, I will first briefly review vision-based systems to provide assistance to older adults with dementia and to assist with usability studies for this population. I will then present preliminary results on assessing the cognitive status of older adults by way of monitoring common activities of daily living.

Fast Threshold Selection Algorithm of Infrared Human Images
Abstract
Infrared images are by nature fuzzy and noisy, thus the segmentation of human targets from them is a challenging task. In this work, fuzzy Tsallis entropy of background and target are defined respectively according to probability division principle. Next, a newly defined entropy is extended into two dimensions to make full use of spatial information.
