Abstract

High-level understanding of motion events is a critical task in any system which aims to analyse dynamic human-populated scenes. However, current tracking techniques still do not address complex interaction events among multiple targets. In this paper, a principled event-management framework is proposed, and it is included in a hierarchical and modular tracking architecture. Multiple-target interaction events, and a proper scheme for tracker instantiation and removal according to scene events, are considered. Multiple-target group management allows the system to switch among different operation modes. Robust and accurate tracking results have been obtained in both indoor and outdoor scenarios, without considering a-priori knowledge about either the scene or the targets based on a previous training period.
