Project Description | |
|
|
In recent years, there
has been rapidly growing interest in content-based functionalities of
video data, such as video editing, content-based image retrieval, video
indexing, video event analysis, etc. Video segmentation as a challenging
and active research area is a key technique for semantic object extraction
and plays an important role in digital video processing and computer
vision. The task of segmenting/tracking a video object emerges in many
applications, such as traffic monitoring, surveillance and video
conferencing, etc. |
|
The objectives of the project are: |
|
§ To investigate the saliency model for extracting objects of interest from videos. § To develop novel automatic video object segmentation techniques for generic and specific (e.g., video surveillance, videoconferencing) applications based on saliency model. § To develop real time object segmentation techniques based on saliency model and fast transforms. The outcomes of the project find applications in real time content-based multimedia services. |
