Abstract

Human object classification is an important problem for smart video surveillance applications. In this paper we have proposed a method for human object classification, which classify the objects into two classes: human and non-human. The proposed method uses Daubechies complex wavelet transform coefficients as a feature of object. Daubechies complex wavelet transform is used due to its better edge representation and approximate shift-invariant property as compared to real valued wavelet transform. We have used Adaboost as a classifier for classification of objects. The proposed method has been tested on standard datasets like, INRIA dataset. Quantitative experimental evaluation results show that the proposed method is better than other state-of-the-art methods and gives better performance.
