Application of nonparametric regression methods to study the relationship between NO2 concentrations and local wind direction and speed at background sites

Background concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) are not constant but vary temporally and spatially. The current paper presents a powerful tool for the quantification of the effects of wind direction and wind speed on background NO₂ concentrations, particularly in cases where monitoring data are limited. In contrast to previous studies which applied similar methods to sites directly affected by local pollution sources, the current study focuses on background sites with the aim of improving methods for predicting background concentrations adopted in air quality modelling studies. The relationship between measured NO₂ concentration in air at three such sites in Ireland and locally measured wind direction has been quantified using nonparametric regression methods. The major aim was to analyse a method for quantifying the effects of local wind direction on background levels of NO₂ in Ireland. The method was expanded to include wind speed as an added predictor variable. A Gaussian kernel function is used in the analysis and circular statistics employed for the wind direction variable. Wind direction and wind speed were both found to have a statistically significant effect on background levels of NO₂ at all three sites. Frequently environmental impact assessments are based on short term baseline monitoring producing a limited dataset. The presented non-parametric regression methods, in contrast to the frequently used methods such as binning of the data, allow concentrations for missing data pairs to be estimated and distinction between spurious and true peaks in concentrations to be made. The methods were found to provide a realistic estimation of long term concentration variation with wind direction and speed, even for cases where the data set is limited. Accurate identification of the actual variation at each location and causative factors could be made, thus supporting the improved definition of background concentrations for use in air quality modelling studies.     

Robust visual tracking via CAMShift and structural local sparse appearance model

This paper addresses issues in visual tracking where videos contain object intersections, pose changes, occlusions, illumination changes, motion blur, and similar color distributed background. We apply the structural local sparse representation method to analyze the background region around the target. After that, we reduce the probability of prominent features in the background and add new information to the target model. In addition, a weighted search method is proposed to search the best candidate target region. To a certain extent, the weighted search method solves the local optimization problem. The proposed scheme, designed to track single human through complex scenarios from videos, has been tested on some video sequences. Several existing tracking methods are applied to the same videos and the corresponding results are compared. Experimental results show that the proposed tracking scheme demonstrates a very promising performance in terms of robustness to occlusions, appearance changes, and similar color distributed background.     

Robust techniques for abandoned and removed object detection based on Markov random field

This paper presents a novel framework for detecting abandoned objects by introducing a fully-automatic GrabCut object segmentation. GrabCut seed initialization is treated as a background (BG) modelling problem that focuses only on unhanded objects and objects that become immobile. The BG distribution is constructed with dual Gaussian mixtures that are comprised of high and low learning rate models. We propose a primitive BG model-based removed object validation and Haar feature-based cascade classifier for still-people detection once a candidate for a released object has been detected. Our system can obtain more robust and accurate results for real environments based on evaluations of realistic scenes from CAVIAR, PETS2006, CDnet 2014, and our own datasets.     

New trends on moving object detection in video images captured by a moving camera: A survey

This paper presents a survey on the latest methods of moving object detection in video sequences captured by a moving camera. Although many researches and excellent works have reviewed the methods of object detection and background subtraction for a fixed camera, there is no survey which presents a complete review of the existing different methods in the case of moving camera. Most methods in this field can be classified into four categories; modeling based background subtraction, trajectory classification, low rank and sparse matrix decomposition, and object tracking. We discuss in details each category and present the main methods which proposed improvements in the general concept of the techniques. We also present challenges and main concerns in this field as well as performance metrics and some benchmark databases available to evaluate the performance of different moving object detection algorithms.     

Cosmo++: An object-oriented C++ library for cosmology

This paper introduces a new publicly available numerical library for cosmology, Cosmo++. The library has been designed using object-oriented programming techniques, and fully implemented in C++. Cosmo++ introduces a unified interface for using most of the frequently used numerical methods in cosmology. Most of the features are implemented in Cosmo++ itself, while a part of the functionality is implemented by linking to other publicly available libraries. The most important features of the library are Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies power spectrum and transfer function calculations, likelihood calculations, parameter space sampling tools, sky map simulations, and mask apodization. Cosmo++ also includes a few mathematical tools that are frequently used in numerical research in cosmology and beyond. A few simple examples are included in Cosmo++ to help the user understand the key features. The library has been fully tested, and we describe some of the important tests in this paper. Cosmo++ is publicly available at http://cosmo.grigoraslanyan.com.     

Adaptive visual target detection and tracking using weakly supervised incremental appearance learning and RGM-PHD tracker

Multiple visual target tracking is a challenging problem due to various uncertainties including occlusion, miss-detection and noisy measurement. Most tracking approaches utilize an object-specific detector, pre-trained on many labeled images, to provide suitable measurements for their tracking system. In this paper, we use a simple background subtraction detector which only needs the background image to localize targets independent of their shape or type. In order to cope with the uncertainties resulted by the detector, we propose an adaptive appearance model and develop an incremental appearance learning algorithm to learn the target appearances in time. The proposed method employs the background information and our defined keypoints’ miss-matched history to adapt the target appearances within different frames. Furthermore, we combine Refined Gaussian Mixture Probability Hypothesis Density (RGM-PHD) tracker with the detectors to keep target trajectories and handle uncertainties. The experiments conducted on several video datasets show the effectiveness of our proposed method.
