Abstract

This paper presents an object detection algorithm using multiple cameras, which is robust in the presence of cast shadows. The information fusion is based on homography mapping of the foreground regions to a top view image. The homography is based on multiple planar planes parallel to the ground plane. Two novel approaches to estimating such homography have been proposed. The results on an open video dataset are demonstrated.
