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.

Topic

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.
