Conventional TFMs have a high power and torque density, but low power factors and high cogging torques have prevented them from being widely used. However, especially with the new disk type TFMs proposed in recent years and the methods developed, these drawbacks have been reduced. In this paper, the TFMs proposed in recent years have been classified and their …

Scale-Invariant Histogram Of Oriented Gradients: Novel Approach For Pedestriandetection In Multiresolution Image Dataset, Sweta Panigrahi, Surya Narayana Raju Undi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper proposes a scale-invariant histogram of oriented gradients (SI-HOG) for pedestrian detection. Most of the algorithms for pedestrian detection use the HOG as the basic feature and combine other features with the HOG to form the feature set, which is usually applied with a support vector machine (SVM). Hence, the HOG feature is the most efficient and fundamental feature for pedestrian detection. However, the HOG feature produces feature vectors of different lengths for different image resolutions; thus, the feature vectors are incomparable for the SVM. The proposed method forms a scale-space pyramid wherein the histogram bin is calculated. Thus, …
