Abstract

Generalized Hough Transform-based methods have been successfully applied to object detection. Such methods have the following disadvantages: (i) manual labeling of training data ; (ii) the off-line construction of codebook. To overcome these limitations, we propose an unsupervised moving object detection algorithm with on-line Generalized Hough Transform. Our contributions are two-fold: (i) an unsupervised training data selection algorithm based on Multiple Instance Learning (MIL); (ii) an on-line Extremely Randomized Trees construction algorithm for on-line codebook adaptation. We evaluate the proposed algorithm on three video datasets. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves comparable performance to the supervised detection method with manual labeling. They also show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the previously proposed unsupervised learning algorithm.
