Human Detection With Contour-Based Local Motion Binary Patterns, Duc Thanh Nguyen, Philip Ogunbona, Wanqing Li
Professor Philip Ogunbona
This paper presents a human detection method using contour- based local motion features. The local motion is encoded using a variant of the popular Local Binary Pattern (LBP) called Non-Redundant Local Binary Pattern (NRLBP) descriptor computed on the difference image of two consecutive frames. In addition, the local motion features are extracted along the human's boundary contour. Localising features on the contours has the advantage of utilizing a precise human shape description. A motivation of the proposed method is that most of informative movements are performed on boundary contours of the body parts, e.g. legs of pedestrians. Evaluation of the …

Smoke Detection In Videos Using Non-Redundant Local Binary Pattern-Based Features, Hongda Tian, Wanqing Li, Philip Ogunbona, Duc Thanh Nguyen, Ce Zhan
Professor Philip Ogunbona
This paper presents a novel and low complexity method for real-time video-based smoke detection. As a local texture operator, Non-Redundant Local Binary Pattern (NRLBP) is more discriminative and robust to illumination changes in comparison with original Local Binary Pattern (LBP), thus is employed to encode the appearance information of smoke. Non-Redundant Local Motion Binary Pattern (NRLMBP), which is computed on the difference image of consecutive frames, is introduced to capture the motion information of smoke. Experimental results show that NRLBP outperforms the original LBP in the smoke detection task. Furthermore, the combination of NRLBP and NRLMBP, which can be considered …
