Proceedings of Workshop on Human Factors in Intelligent Vehicles page： 32 - 36 2017.10

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings)

In this paper, we report a case study on driver's decision in terms of pedestrian attributes. Among various traffic situations, the situation that a vehicle passes by a pedestrian is one of the major situations. To build a safety driving system that supports a non-experienced driver in such a situation, we analyzed how experienced drivers decide to handle the vehicle in such a situation. Since pedestrian’s behavior can be considered as a key factor for the decision, and also the behavior is different depending on their attributes," such as walking or stopping, noticing the vehicle or not, using a smartphone, etc., we analyzed what pedestrian's attributes affect the driver's decisions. For the analysis, we first built a large-scale dataset of driving data. Using the dataset, we clarified what attributes are dominant for the driver's decision."

Travel destination recommendation is useful to support travel.Considering the recommendation of regions within the destination area to visit, it could be difficult for the users to explicitly indicate their preference.Therefore, we considered that it would be more intuitive to recommend regions in the destination area that are similar to a region already well-known to the user.Thus, in this paper, we propose a method for the detection of similar geo-regions based on Visual Concepts in social photos.We report experimental results and analyses by applying the proposed method to the YFCC100M dataset.

Proceedings of the 14th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Video and Signal Based Surveillance (AVSS2017) 2017.9

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings)

This paper proposes a Deep Learning-based action recognition method from an extremely low-resolution thermal image sequence. The method recognizes daily actions by humans (e.g. walking, sitting down, standing up, etc.) and abnormal actions (e.g. falling down) without privacy concerns. While privacy concerns can be ignored, it is difficult to compute feature points and to obtain a clear edge of the human body from an extremely low-resolution thermal image. To address these problems, this paper proposes a Deep Learning-based action recognition method that combines convolution layers and an LSTM layer for learning spatio-temporal representation, whose inputs are the thermal images and their frame differences cropped by the gravity center of human regions. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed through experiments.

Localization along a route is an everyday necessity for in-vehicle navigation systems, and a vital task for automated driving technologies. Visual ego-localization promises reliable accuracy even in challenging urban environments where Global Positioning Systems (GPSs) can fail. Using cameras for localization against a pre-constructed database requires either the creation of a dense three-dimensional feature point map and pose estimation of a query camera relative to this map, or image matching along a database route to determine the capture position of the query camera based on the most similar database image. While the latter method is potentially less computationally intensive and can provide a more compact database, localization accuracy is limited by the discrete positioning information at database frame capture locations. In this paper we propose an image matching method that makes use of image features which are pre-matched during database construction, allowing linear regression coefficients for the relationship between capture position and feature scale to be calculated. The capture position of matched query features can then be estimated to sub-database spacing resolution. By incorporating the visual localization system into a Bayes estimator, we demonstrate an average monocular vision localization accuracy of 0.33 m in tests on actual vehicle image streams.

Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Quality in Research (QiR2017) page： 164 - 168 2017.7

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings)

Surveillance systems play a critical role in security and surveillance. A surveillance system with cameras that work in the visible spectrum is sufficient for most cases. However, problems may arise during the night, or in areas with less than ideal illumination conditions. Cameras with thermal infrared technology can be a better option in these situations since they do not rely on illumination to observe the environment. Furthermore, in our daily lives, it is common for humans to wear headgears such as glasses, masks, and hats. In surveillance, such headgears can be a hindrance to the identification of a person, and hence pose a certain degree of risk. This is not ideal in areas where the identity of a person is important, for example, in a bank. Therefore, in this paper we propose a headgear recognition method using an innovative decomposition approach on thermal infrared images. The decomposition method is based on Robust Principal Component Analysis, a modification of the popular Principal Component Analysis. The proposed method performs decomposition on a human image and isolates headgears in the image for recognition purposes. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the capability of the proposed method. The results show a positive outcome when compared with other methods.

Trajectory Ensemble: Multiple Persons Consensus Tracking across Non-overlapping Multiple Cameras over Randomly Dropped Camera Networks Reviewed

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings)

Multiple person tracking over a camera network is usually performed by matching person images between adjacent cameras. It easily fails by a temporal appearance change of the persons caused by environmental illumination and observation orientation of a camera. To solve this problem, matching person images across not only adjacent cameras but also cameras multiple hops away in the camera network is effective, but such relaxation of spatiotemporal cues also cause tracking failure due to the increase of matching candidates. To avoid the failure, we introduce Random Camera Drop" to generate different camera networks which relax the spatio-temporal cues partially and randomly. We then, integrate tracking results over the networks to a consensus tracking result by a novel concept "Trajectory Ensemble", an extension of unsupervised ensemble learning for the multiple person tracking over a camera network problem. We evaluated the framework on several virtual datasets generated from a public dataset, "Shinpuhkan 2014 dataset" and confirmed that the proposed method achieves the highest tracking results among several comparative methods."

Monocular Localization within Sparse Voxel Maps Reviewed

Proceedings of the 2017 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV2017) page： 493 - 498 2017.6

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings)

We introduce a method that uses a single camera to localize a vehicle within a pre-constructed map consisting of a voxel occupancy grid and road-line marker positions. Sophisticated mapping hardware is capable of creating high accuracy 3D maps of road environments, but localizing a vehicle within such maps is one of the challenges at the forefront of automated driving. A solution which is robust to dynamic environments, while using only inexpensive sensors, is a difficult problem. In addition, maps that enable precise localization consume a lot of data which is impractical for the expansive environments encountered in real-world road networks. We show how using the area of edge regions shared between rendered views of a compact voxel map and in-vehicle camera images can be coupled with non-linear optimization methods to determine the camera position and pose.

Human Wearable Attribute Recognition Using Probability-Map-Based Decomposition of Thermal Infrared Images Reviewed

Brahmastro Kresnaraman, Yasutomo Kawanishi, Daisuke Deguchi, Tomokazu Takahashi, Yoshito Mekada, Ichiro Ide, Hiroshi Murase

IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications and Computer Sciences Vol. E100-A ( 3 ) page： 854 - 864 2017.3

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

This paper addresses the attribute recognition problem, a
field of research that is dominated by studies in the visible spectrum. Only
a few works are available in the thermal spectrum, which is fundamentally
different from the visible one. This research performs recognition specif-
ically on wearable attributes, such as glasses and masks. Usually these
attributes are relatively small in size when compared with the human body,
on top of a large intra-class variation of the human body itself, therefore
recognizing them is not an easy task. Our method utilizes a decomposi-
tion framework based on Robust Principal Component Analysis (RPCA) to
extract the attribute information for recognition. However, because it is dif-
ficult to separate the body and the attributes without any prior knowledge,
noise is also extracted along with attributes, hampering the recognition
capability. We made use of prior knowledge; namely the location where
the attribute is likely to be present. The knowledge is referred to as the
Probability Map, incorporated as a weight in the decomposition by RPCA.
Using the Probability Map, we achieve an attribute-wise decomposition.
The results show a significant improvement with this approach compared
to the baseline, and the proposed method achieved the highest performance
in average with a 0:83 F-score.

Single Camera Vehicle Localization Using Feature Scale Tracklets Reviewed

Advances in intelligent vehicle systems have led to modern automobiles being able to aid drivers with tasks such as lane following and automatic braking. Such automated driving tasks increasingly require reliable ego-localization. Although there is a large number of sensors that can be employed for this purpose, the use of a single camera still remains one of the most appealing, but also one of the most challenging. GPS localization in urban environments may not be reliable enough for automated driving systems, and various combinations of range sensors and inertial navigation systems are often too complex and expensive for a consumer setup. Therefore accurate localization with a single camera is a desirable goal.
In this paper we propose a method for vehicle localization using images captured from a single vehicle-mounted camera and a pre-constructed database.
Image feature points are extracted, but the calculation of camera poses is not required---instead we make use of the feature points' scale.
For image feature-based localization methods, matching of many features against candidate database images is time consuming, and database sizes can become large. Therefore, here we propose a method that constructs a database with pre-matched features of known good scale stability. This limits the number of unused and incorrectly matched features, and allows recording of the database scales into ``tracklets''. These ``Feature scale tracklets'' are used for fast image match voting based on scale comparison with corresponding query image features. This process reduces the number of image-to-image matching iterations that need to be performed while improving the localization stability. We also present an analysis of the system performance using a dataset with high accuracy ground truth. We demonstrate robust vehicle positioning even in challenging lane change and real traffic situations.
