spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/5121 Using colour features to classify objects and people in a video surveillance network Price, Mathew De Jager, Gerhard Nicolls, Fred Electrical Engineering Includes bibliographical references (leaves 133-138). Visual tracking of humans has proved to be an extremely challenging task for computer vision systems. One idea towards a development of these systems is the incorporation of colour. Often colour appearance of a person can provide enough information to identify an object or person in the short-term. However, the imprecise nature of colour measurements typically encountered in image processing has limited their use. This thesis presents a system which uses colour appearances of objects and people for tracking across multiple camera views in a digital video surveillance network. 2014-07-31T10:53:57Z 2014-07-31T10:53:57Z 2004 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5121 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
