Belonging to the wider academic field of computer vision, video analytics has aroused a phenomenal surge of interest since the current millennium. Video analytics is intended to solve the problem of the incapability of exploiting video streams in real time for the purpose of detection or anticipation. It involves analyzing the videos using algorithms that detect and track objects of interest over time and that indicate the presence of events or suspect behavior involving these objects. The aims of this book are to highlight the operational attempts of video analytics, to identify possible driving forces behind potential evolutions in years to come, and above all to present the state of the a...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Conference on Pattern Recognition, ICPRAM 2014, held in Angers, France, in March 2014. The 18 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 179 submissions and describe up-to-date applications of Pattern Recognition techniques to real-world problems, interdisciplinary research, experimental and/or theoretical studies yielding new insights that advance Pattern Recognition methods.
Annually published since 1930, the International bibliography of Historical Sciences (IBOHS) is an international bibliography of the most important historical monographs and periodical articles published throughout the world, which deal with history from the earliest to the most recent times. The works are arranged systematically according to period, region or historical discipline, and within this classification alphabetically. The bibliography contains a geographical index and indexes of persons and authors.
L’utilisation croissante de la vidéoprotection rend nécessaire la mise en place de fonctions d’analyse vidéo pour alléger voire automatiser des tâches aujourd’hui entièrement réalisées par des opérateurs. Après avoir dressé un panorama des avancées et des perspectives en analyse d’image, cet ouvrage détaille les principales fonctions d’analyse vidéo, comme la détection, le suivi et la reconnaissance d’objets d’intérêt (personnes ou véhicules) ou les fonctions de « haut-niveau » visant à interpréter les scènes observées (évènements, comportements, nature de la scène...). Les besoins sont illustrés sous l’angle de deux applications majeures, la sécurité des transports et l’investigation. Les contraintes d’ordres juridique et éthique sont présentées, ainsi que les caractéristiques des données vidéo traitées, au travers des caméras et des méthodes de compression utilisées. La problématique de l’évaluation de performance, tant au niveau opérationnel qu’au niveau des fonctions d’analyse, est également exposée.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems, ACIVS 2018, held in Poitiers, France, in September 2018. The 52 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 91 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: video analysis; segmentation and classification; remote sending; biometrics; deep learning; coding and compression; and image restauration and reconstruction.
At the beginning of the twelfth century, the region around Paris had a reputation for being the land of unruly aristocrats. Entrenched within their castles, the nobles were viewed as quarrelling among themselves, terrorizing the countryside, harassing churchmen and peasants, pillaging, and committing unspeakable atrocities. By the end of the century, during the reign of Philip Augustus, the situation was dramatically different. The king had created the principal governmental organs of the Capetian monarchy and replaced the feudal magnates at the royal court with loyal men of lesser rank. The major castles had been subdued and peace reigned throughout the countryside. The aristocratic familie...
