Pedestrian detection represents one of the most important components of engineering devices that use automated vision to help decision systems take quick and accurate actions. Such systems are defined and customized to be useful for different needs, such as monitoring and aided surveillance, or increasing safety features in automotive industry. Given the large spectrum of applications that use pedestrian detection, demand has increased in recent years for the development of feasible solutions which can be integrated in devices such as smartphones or action cameras.This paper focuses on finding probabilistic features that highlight the human body characteristics regardless of contextual information in images. Adjacent pixels are often spatially correlated, which means that they are likely to have similar values. We view the image as a collection of random variables indexed by certain locations, called sites. The state of a site ξ is conditionally independent of all variables in the random field, except the neighbouring systemwhere ∆ is a positive integer and d 2 (ξ , η) is the squared Euclidean distance between ξ and η. The neighbouring system strictly depends on a collection of cliques C = ∑ ω(δ ) k=1 C k , where ω(∆) is the number of cliques for each local specification.Energy function: An unpublished manuscript [2] describes how to interpret the local property of a Markov random field in terms of energy and potential, claiming that the probability at a site ξ is given by:where V C is the potential function, and ϕ ∈ F. To get the probability that at a site ξ the state is γ, we need to define a potential function V C (γ) in the neighbouring system, here denoted by a collection of cliques C. To be able to do this, we refer to the auto-binomial model that was introduced by Besag [1] to describe types of spatial processes, examining some stochastic models that occur in the texture of various physical materials. Potential function: The potential at a certain state is given by:
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
