Object Tracking: Appearance Modeling And Feature Learning, Raed Almomani
Wayne State University Dissertations
Object tracking in real scenes is an important problem in computer vision due to increasing usage of tracking systems day in and day out in various applications such as surveillance, security, monitoring and robotic vision. Object tracking is the process of locating objects of interest in every frame of video frames. Many systems have been proposed to address the tracking problem where the major challenges come from handling appearance variation during tracking caused by changing scale, pose, rotation, illumination and occlusion.
In this dissertation, we address these challenges by introducing several novel tracking techniques. First, we developed a multiple object …

Wayne State University Theses
Feature learning and object classification in machine learning have become very active research areas in recent decades. Identifying good features has various benefits for object classification in respect to reducing the computational cost and increasing the classification accuracy. In addition, many research studies have focused on the use of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to improve the training time for machine learning algorithms. In this study, the use of an alternative platform, called High Performance Computing Cluster (HPCC), to handle unsupervised feature learning, image and speech classification and improve the computational cost is proposed.
HPCC is a Big Data processing and …
