A pedestrian detection method based on Dirichlet distribution and histogram of components

Abstract

Pedestrian detection is a hot topic in computer vision recently. It is a challenging issue to detect the pedestrian in images accurately and quickly. In this paper, we propose a quick and accurate pedestrian detection method based on Dirichlet distribution and histogram of components. This method can find out the pedestrian in images accurately. Because of the introduction of Dirichlet distribution and histogram of components, our method reduces the time cost on detecting pedestrian. The experiment also showed that it can detect the pedestrian sheltered from other object or in the complicated background.
