Abstract

The kernel density estimate does not need to have the characteristic distribution hypothesis to the background, it also does not require the estimation parameter, and it can deal with the moving target detection under the complex background, but the kernel function bandwidth choice uniformly puzzles the algorithm application. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a fusion method of human body characteristics and kernel density estimation for pedestrian detection. Firstly, the kernel function bandwidth is chosen by the prior information of moving target, then the foreground (moving target) is extracted based on kernel density estimation, finally, using human features to detect video pedestrians. The experimental results show that the calculation of kernel density estimation is reduced by comparing introduction of prior information with traditional methods, and the pedestrian and no pedestrian can be detected accurately by the interference of light variation and noise.
