One of important image processing applications is detection of humans for non-urban Search and Rescue. Authors have previously developed a method which, using mean shift segmentation, searches for objects (humans and artificial objects) in natural images. It is based on assumption that such objects have different color comparing to the rest of image. Main problem in using mean shift algorithm is long processing time. In this paper, influence of image compression ratio on mean shift processing time as well as on detection results has been investigated. It is shown that increase in compression ratio results with shorter processing time while detection of objects (Recall and Precision) is not significantly deteriorated.
