This paper proposes a new device to capture dense point cloud of human contour using horizontal LIDAR and vertical LIDAR with mirrors on pan rotational mechanism. This paper also reports a new method to estimate simple behavior such as standing and sitting online from only single vertical scan data. The combination of rotation mechanism and vertical LIDAR enlarge measurement area to overall room. Both mirrors use and pan rotation control enhance density of point cloud. The horizontal LIDAR provides robust tracking of human without missing. The experiments about performance of the device and the method demonstrated that our device and method contain sufficient feasibility to monitor human behavior in human living environments. The authors also demonstrated online recognition of simple human behavior such as standing and sitting from only single vertical scan points using pattern recognition technique.

In Japan, a report has shown that being hurry is the greatest category of the driver mental states during caraccidents. In this paper, we present the analysis and detection algorithm especially developed for hurry driving in several driving situations. The most effective driving feature in each situation is selected based on the comparative statistical analysis of the driver behavior in the normal and hurry driving conditions. It is found that the features that classify the hurry driving well in most situations are the time headway, the host vehicle velocity and the longitudinal acceleration. Through these features, the appropriate classification rules are determined, which allows us to later develop the hurry-driving detection algorithm based upon the driving-state transition model. The algorithm is then validated by offline simulations with collected driving data. The results clearly confirm the practicability and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a novel kernel computation algorithm between time-series human motion data for online action recognition. The proposed kernel is based on probabilistic models called switching linear dynamics (SLDs). SLD is one of the powerful tools for tracking, analyzing and classifying human complex time-series motion. The proposed kernel incorporates information about the latent variables in SLDs. The empirical evaluation using real motion data shows that a classifier using SVM with our proposed kernel has much better performance than the classifiers with some conventional kernel techniques. Another experimental result using kernel principal component analysis shows that the proposed kernel has excellent performance in extracting and separating different action categories, such as walking and running.

混雑環境において人数推定を行うことは、都市環境における安全面や商業面の観点から役立つ．近年，人周りの領域の面積などといった，画像全体から得られる特徴量を用いて，回帰により人数推定を行う手法が注目されている．この手法の推定精度は，用いる人周りの領域抽出手法・特徴量に依存する．そこで本研究は，適切な領域抽出手法・特徴量を自動的に選出する学習法を提案する．提案手法は，特徴量選出の 2 段階のアルゴリズムから成り立ち，それぞれの段階に疎な解を持つことでしられる l1 ノルム正則化を用いる．Lars という正則化パスを効率的に求める考え方により，提案手法はハイパーパラメータ決定を含む学習時間が他の手法より短い．本研究では，公開データセットを用いた実験を通し，提案手法の有用性を検証した．Counting people in crowded environments is valuable for applications such as traffic analysis, safety in urban or advertising. Recently, number of people in the scenes can be estimated using holistic image features. The performance of this approach depends on the combination of motion segmentations and image features. Therefore, we propose a learning method which selects only useful features and segmentations from a large number of those automatically. Our mainly consists of two stages. Our method contains l1-norm regularization, which is known as a shrinkage and selection technique, in two stages. Thanks to using Lars methods, which calculate a regularization path efficiently, the proposed approach can determines a hyper-parameter under less training time. Experimental results show our sufficient estimation accuracy and reduction of required features within less training time.

In this paper we propose a novel method for predicting a resident's behavior in a house by one's movement trajectories. The proposed method consists of 1) segmentation of trajectory data into staying or moving and classification of segments and 2) prediction by time-series association rules from transition events of each segment. The experimental results using real resident's trajectory data of almost two years demonstrate that 1) typical staying location are affected by floor plan and furniture layout and 2) prediction of behavior by the proposed method are possible.

This paper describes development of search and visualization system that deals with heterogeneous time-series activity sensor data in distributed databases. We have collected different types of activity data from living enviroments of elderly people in south area of Kashiwa city: walking data by pedometers, indoor actions by pyroelectric sensors and transportation utility data by on-demand bus reservation. Different search methods are prepared for all databases and these methods extract activity history data in a unified form. This mechanism enables the search system to deal with the heterogeneous activity databases uniformly. In addition, the system provides the method for extracting person group by statistics of extracted activity history. The system facilitates activity analysis through searching action history data from diffrent data sources and visualizing these data comprehensibly. Two experiments showed that the system enables cross-sectional search from heterogeneous time-series activity databases: 1) Identification of the same person from different activity databases and 2) Extraction of person group from activity history data.

Specifically, the proposed framework, formulated as Dirichlet process mixtures, achieves simultaneous categorization, identification and adaptation of driver models from driving records of multiple drivers. We also provide a histogram quantization technique to accelerate the speed of inference process. The experimental results using driving records of multiple drivers under car following situation show that our method is superior over the other conventional methods in view of accuracy and inference efficiency.

This paper deals with sensor arrangement for activity classification of the people, who lives alone, with pyroelectric sensors, so that the classification system acquires as high performance with as small sensor numbers as possible. We suggest some heuristic algorithms for approximate optimization of sensor combination, and some machine learning algorithms for exact optimization of feature selection which corresponds to that of sensor selection. For some examinations, we confirmed the significance of automatic arrangement system by comparing the quasi-optimized sensor arrangement acquired by above algorithms with the arrangement by human judge.

Rear-end collision in the vehicle-following situation has captured vast interests of active safety researchers. This paper presents one of the major causes of this collision, a hurry driving. The behavior of the driver during the normal and the hurry driving has been analyzed comparatively, and the statistical models of the driver behavior are developed. These model features are the moving average and the moving standard deviation of the time headway. A classifier for hurry driving diagnosis is produced based on the bivariate distribution model between these features. The results clearly distinguish normal and hurry conditions in terms of time headway and its standard deviation.

Successful multi-target tracking requires locating the targets and labeling their identities. For the tracking systems, the latter is more challenging. In this paper, we propose a method for multiple persons tracking using multiple cameras and laser range finders. Our method estimates 3D positions of human body and head, and labels their identities. The method is composed of multiple particle filters, and each particle filter tracks each person correctly by integrating information from laser range finders and the target-specific information from multiple cameras. Integration of these two types of sensors enables complement of each weak point and the correct tracking of the target. Moreover, we develop a new particle filter framework that tracks the human head by using the estimated human body position simultaneously. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the method in multiple persons tracking.

This paper describes a method for estimating the position/pose of a mobile robot and the positions of people in a previously mapped environment. In the proposed method, we acquire LRF scan segments not corresponding to occupied grids of the known map and consider these segments as environmental changes caused by people and other moving-objects. By using these LRF scan segments and particle filter framework, our method estimates the robot and multiple people robustly. In addition, other moving-objects except people are detected by tracking these LRF scan segments. In our experiment, positions of the robot and people were estimated about 10cm accuracy.

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to recover human body pose from 3D voxel data. The use of voxel data leads to viewpoint-free estimation, which benefits in that reconstruction of a training model is needless in different multi-camera arrangements. The chief advantage of our approach is speed, which enables real-time processing when capturing 8 VGA size images in 30 [fps] . Our approach is mainly based on an example-based approach. Human posture candidates are constructed beforehand, and the most appropriate posture candidate is selected per frame by comparing the similarity between 3D voxel data and posture candidates. Derivation of similarity is formulated by introducing a histogram-based feature vector that represents the 3D context of human body. In addition, a fast near-neighbor search metric is installed prior to the evaluation process, to reduce the computational cost and ensure real-time processing. Estimation stability is also improved by a motion graph, which adds a smoothing effect to the motion sequence. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach with experiments on both synthetic and real image sequences.

This paper describes a novel wireless sensor network system that provides both functions of sensor value transmission and sensor localization. ZigBee technology is utilized as wireless network protocol in our system because of its advantages in terms of power consumption and easiness of self-organizing mesh network. For location estimation, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) is leveraged and a robust grid based sensor localization algorithm is proposed. A testbed location aware ZigBee-based system is successfully evaluated in terms of its performance of sensor value transmission and sensor localization functions.

In this paper, we propose a household object recognition system based on computer vision. In our system, detailed images of object are acquired with four pan-tilt cameras fixed at the ceil of the room. The object is identified from these images, and the object's position is managed by using the recognition result. Also, the system presents the position of the household objects by user's request. This paper presents a robust object recognition method for changes of object size, angle, direction in images by using SIFT feature and object template images captured from various directions. Our experiment with 41 objects showed that precision was 0.94, recall was 0.66, and F-measure was 0.75.

This papar presents a software interface that enables users to control home robots remotely. To control robots easily and safely, we propose users using a remote control interface based on Mixed Reality. The software interface displays the simulation how robots will move and requires confirmation of their operations. The simulation is one of the easiest ways for users to acquire the result from their operation, and confirmation will prevent robots from acting out of users' expectation. This interface is also useful for developers for robots. It visualizes the sensors which are attached to the robots and it also visualizes status of robots. When the developers utilize these data, it will help them to understand the meaning of these data. We implemented the software interface and demonstrated it. It enabled us to control home robots easily and safaly.

This paper presents a behavior labeling algorithm for time-series data, extracted using home sensors. In the previous work, we proposed a time-series data clustering method based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). However, change points of behaviors are not clearly segmented in our former method and short length behaviors tend to be misrecognized. In this paper, we propose a novel behavior labeling algorithm by introducing Singular Spectrum Transformation (SST) to detect change-points robustly. This algorithm enables more precise behavior labeling because of clear change-point detection.

This paper describes an algorithm of behavior labeling and anomaly detection for elderly people living alone. In order to grasp the person's life pattern, we equip some pyroelectric sensors into the house and measure the person's movement data all the time. From those sequential data, we extract two kinds of information, time and duration of each behavior, and make the system calculate two-dimensional probabilistic density function of them. By using this function, the system classifies behavior labels and detects anomaly. In addition to these two kinds of information, we consider another kind of informaion, behavior transition patterns, at anomaly detection. Here, we assume local anomaly and global anomaly. The former means the rare behaviors and the latter means the changes of life pattern. The algorithm is confirmed through the experiment on about 400 days real behavior data.

In this paper, we propose a robust online action recognition method based on boosted sequential classification. Our method utilizes boosting algorithm that is one of ensemble learning algorithms. This algorithm is also known as a feautre selector and has been utilized in the fields of image processing and natural language processing in recent years. Based on the boosting scheme, our method can automatically and efficiently select significant features for action recognition. Additionally, the method leverages temporal dependency of actions based on Ising model to improve recognition performance. We evaluated our method to action recognition, such as walking and running, using motion capture data only with posture features. In the result, our method can classify the actions more robustly than the method that does not utilize temporal dependency of actions.

This system assumes 3D voxel data to be the input, while discrete human posture data is assumed to be the output. The discreteness of human posture data is provided by an example-based approach, which constructs human posture candidates from a large motion capture database beforehand. During the estimation process, the most appropriate candidate will be chosen through a simple similarity calculation between voxel data and posture candidates. This approach will drastically reduce the computational cost compared to conventional methods, but increase of candidates will possibly lead to considerable computational cost.Therefore, prior to the similarity calculation phase, we introduce a near-neighbor search metric, which drastically decreases the similarity caculation frequency and the total computational cost. In this paper, we present a novel near-neighbor search metric, which is capable of dealing with much more candidates than the metric presented before, and yet maintaining the speed needed for online processing.

我々は複数カメラから復元する3次元ボクセルデータを入力としたマーカレスモーションキャプチャシステムの研究を進めている.本システムは事例ベース推論に基づいており,事前に出力姿勢の正解候補群を用意しておき,入力データに最も適合する正解候補を推定結果として出力するものである.この枠組みでは人物姿勢推定のタスクがボクセルデータと正解候補群間のマッチング処理にまで簡潔化され,従来の手法と比較して全体の計算コストを抑えることができる.しかし,正解候補数の増大に伴う類似度導出処理の計算コストの増大がシステムの実時間性を妨げる場合がある.そこで,類似度導出処理を適用する正解候補を絞り込む目的で,Parameter Sensitive Hashing (PSH)と呼ばれる高速近傍探索手法を導入する.PSHはハッシュ表を利用した手法であるが,ハッシュ表と対応付けられるハッシュ関数(ハッシュ値を出力する)の構築過程に冗長性が伴う.本稿では,PSHのハッシュ関数の冗長性を軽減する手法として,Sparse Incremental PSHを提案する.本手法の導入により,計算コストの削減,絞り込み精度の向上等の効果を得ることができる.従来の数十倍の正解候補に対して実験を行い,検索の精度を維持したまま計算コストを軽減できることを示す.

歩く、座るなどの人の日常動作に対し、教師データを用いてオンラインで分節化する手法を提案する。提案手法では、動作の分節を区切れ目となる分節点で２つの力学系が切り替わるモデルとして表現する。教師データから予め学習した力学系の切替モデルに対する入力運動の尤度の時系列パターンに着目することで、漏れなく大量に分節化候補点を発見する。そして、時系列尤度間のマッチングを用いて候補点を絞り込んだ後、オンライン処理における遅延性を考慮した分節点の確定を行う。モーションキャプチャデータに対する適用実験の結果、本手法により日常動作に対する人の判断に近い分節化が実現できたことを確認した。本手法は画像データからの動作分節化の基盤を担うものとして期待される。This paper presents an online supervised segmentation method of daily actions like walking and sitting. The proposed method utilizes switching models of two dynamical systems to represent segmental boundary of human motion. It consists of three phases based on the pattern of time-series likelihood of the switching models. 1)Candidates of the segmental points are detected without omission. 2)The candidates are refined by matching algorithm using time-series likelihood of the correct segmental boundary. 3)The segmental points are output from the candidates by considering latency due to the decision. The experimental results using real motion capture data show that the proposed method are effective for online segmentation of daily actions.

In this paper, we propose a robust online action recognition algorithm with a segmentation scheme that detects start and end points of action occurrences. Specifically, the alogorithm estimates reliably what kind of actions occurring at present time. The algorithm has following characteristics. (1) The algorithm incorporates human knowledge about relations between action names in order to toughen the recognition, thus it labels robustly multiple action names at the same time. (2) The algorithm uses time-series Action Probability that represents the likelihood of each action occurrence at every frame time. The Action Probability is obtained from time-series human motion using support vector machine. (3) The algorithm can detect robustly and immediately the segmental points using classification technique with hidden Markov models (HMIs) . The experimental results using real motion capture data show that our algorithm not only prevents the system from making unnecessary segments due to the error of time-series Action Probability but also decreases effectively the latency for detecting the segmental points.

Human motion has individual differences in motion trajectories and velocity of parts of the body by age, sex, and physical frame. This sometimes declines action recognition performance when the target subject is changed. In this paper, we propose a method for constructing the action recognition model that fits each person's motion. In the proposed framework, the existing recognition model for some person is modified to fit new person's motion. Only when the label predicted by the existing model is wrong, the model is modified with corrected labels. So, little training data are needed and the recognition model can be constructed more effectively. Empirical result using labeled motion data shows the effectiveness of the proposed framework.

We are currently attempting to construct a mixed reality for home usage. The main components of the system include the active projector placed on the ceiling, a room where the projector is to be located, and a PC for controlling the output. By transferring the position at which a movie is projected so that the background of the movie scene stays at the same position, the motion of the object moving in the movie would be reproduced in the real world. Our method involves the following procedures: Input of a movie file, analysis of the background motion, transfer of the position of projection, and correction of the distorted image. This paper focuses on the latter two parts: Transfer of the position of projection and the correction of image distortion.

An online approach is proposed to recover human body pose from 3D voxel data. The use of voxel data leads to viewpoint-free estimation, which benefits in that retraining is redundant in different multi-camera arrangements. Other advantages of our approach are speed and robustness. These are provided by an example-based method, applied by extracting posture labels from a large motion capture database. During the online process, only a similarity evaluation is needed between posture labels and online voxel data. The metric is formulated by introducing a histogram-based feature vector for representing the context of 3D volume. Estimation stability is improved by a precomputed graphical model of motion, which adds a smoothing effect to the motion sequence. We demonstrate speed and robustness of our approach with experiments on both synthetic and real image data.

In this paper, we propose two components, behavior description and anomaly detection algorithm in daily life. To begin with, action labels are assigned for each data-segment, using HMM (Hidden Markov Model) and k-means method. In traditional method, HMMs are composed for all data-segments. This paper improved our previous method, and succeeded to reduce calculation time. In anomaly detection step, typical action data are acquired, using probabilistic density of occurrence and successive time. Each probabilistic density is composed based on accumulating labeled-data, using SDLE (Sequential Discounting Laplace Estimation) and SDEM (Sequential Discounting Expectation and Maximization) algorithms. When new data come, if typical action data is changed largely, the data are detected anomaly.

We developed an automatic behavior labeling system for tremendous data such as life-logs gathered through sensing human life. In this paper, the following advantages of the system were emphasized: 1) labeling behavior exploiting human knowledge and experience 2) relaxing constraints and selecting features freely as to constructing a labeling model, 3) helping find effective features for each behavior label, 4) dealing with incomplete data efficiently. The sequential labeling model with above features could be realized using Conditional Random Field (CRF) framework. We describe features of CRF, procedures of selecting effective features and how to deal with incomplete data in CRF framework. Lastly the model with CRF framework was applied to the real sensing environment and we state the performance based on the model and the feasibility of CRF framework in the human behavior recognition fields.

In this paper, we propose an online recognition method for daily actions, such as walking and standing. The proposed method has following characteristics: (1) simultaneous recognition that is able to output multiple action names when human act more than one action, such a situation as<I>human is waving hand on standing</I>, (2) modeling action classifiers with kernel methods, (3) effective optimization for the parameters of the recognition system with margin-based query learning. The characteristic (2) unifies the process for modeling and learning the classifiers, and makes us easy to incorporate prior knowledge about action. The characteristic (3) reduces the burden of process for annotating action, which is an inevitable task for supervised learning. The experimental results using real motion capture data show that the proposed margin-based query learning is very effective to achieve high performance of the recognition system with very small sized query and annotation process.

This paper describes action prediction system based on sensor data in human behavior measurement environment. The prediction is based on time-series association rule method. The method detects characteristic sequences from sensor event sequence and taught behavior to be predicted. Based on the detected sequences, our system predicts occurrence of the resident's behavior with prediction reliability before arbitrary period. The sensor events for the method are provided from sensor-embedded environments or a behavior simulator. The simulator generates virtual sensor data with input behavior sequence and sensor configuration. We evaluated the action prediction system for real sensor data in our Sensing Room and virtual sensor data. The experiments show feasibility of the action prediction on such behaviors as drinking a bottle of tea.

This paper presents a human like segmentation method for daily actions. The proposed method utilizes human's teacher data of segmentation. By clustering the teacher data, wide variety of segmentation criteria of human are acquired. Each cluster is characterized by body parts it pays attention to, on the basis of tree representation of hierarchical structure of human body. We assume that latent dynamics changes at the segment-points of action, and utilize switching model of two linear dynamic systems to represent segmentation boundary.

In this paper, we propose a rapid and robust online action recognition method. The main features of the proposed method are: 1) to select important motion features for action recognition, 2) to require very small calculation cost for recognition compared to conventional methods, 3) to exploit "Combinational Motion Features" which we propose as a new conception. We evaluated the proposed method to gate action recognition, such as walking and running, by utilizing motion capture data. In the result, the proposed method reduced parameters given by human to action recognizer and lessend human's task. In addition, the proposed method needed very small calculation cost for recognition while was capable of recognizing robustly as much as conventional action recognition method based on support vector machine. Moreover, the introduction of combinational motion features enhanced recognition performance.

This paper presents a recognition method of human daily-life action. The method utilizes hierarchical structure of actions and describes it as tree. We modelize actions by Continuous Hidden Markov Models which output time-series feature vectors extracted based on knowledge of human. In this method, recognition starts from the root, competes the likelihoods of child-nodes, chooses the maximum one as recognition result of the level, and goes to deeper level. The advantages of hierarchical recognition are: (1) recognition of various levels of abstraction, (2) simplification of low-level models, (3) response to novel data by decreasing degree of details. Experimental result shows that the method is able to recognize some basic human actions.
