In this thesis the problem of designing a fast multiclass object detector based on cascade architecture is considered. A classifier cascade is a sequence of simple to complex sub-classifiers where each stage either rejects the input or pass it to the next stage. Since most of th…

The field of computer vision has become an important part of today's society, supporting crucial applications in the medical, manufacturing, military intelligence and surveillance domains. Many computer vision tasks can be divided into fundamental steps: image acquisition, pre-p…

An improved object tracking algorithm based Kalman filtering is developed in this thesis. The algorithm uses a median filter and morphological operations during tracking. The problem created by object shadows is identified and the primary focus is to incorporate shadow detection…
