Abstract:
Pedestrian detection in infrared images has been a hot and difficult research topic in computer version. Traditional methods of pedestrian detection mainly depend on the manual feature for the expression of human body and the results largely relies on the feature representation. Designing artificial features is time-consuming and labor intensive,requires heuristic expertise and experience. Deep learning model based on convolution neural network can automatically learn feature representation from the original images,while avoiding the drawbacks of artificial features. Its difficulty is the choice of network parameters. In this paper,we propose to use deep learning method based on convolution neural network in the process of pedestrian detection. In addition,we analyze the impact of network layers,convolution kernel sizes and feature maps to pedestrian detection in infrared images are. The results demonstrate the superiority of our method over traditional methods in detection rate and alarm rate.
