Gurjit Singh Walia, Rajiv Kapoor · International Journal of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence · 2014
The aim of this paper is to give an overview of state-of-the-art human detection methods, classify them into reasonable categories and listing new trends in this field. Human detection in static images or video sequences is a challenging area of research with its main application in surveillance, defence, intelligent vehicles and robotics. In this survey paper, we classify the human detection methods based upon the mode of data acquisition and features used for detection of human. The review of different algorithms reported in last few years for human detection is tabulated. Also, we reviewed standard dataset for evaluation of human detection and studied the statistics about these dataset such as number of frames, challenging environments conditions, ground truth structure, camera details, etc. Different performance measures for human detection algorithms both qualitative and quantitative are listed out. Our survey gauges the gap between the present research and future requirements.
