Detailed Description

This functor implements temporal templates, as described by James Davis and Aaron Bobick in "The Representation and Recognition of Action Using Temporal Templates", MIT Media Lab, Tech.

Report 402, IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR'97) The apply()-methods return the calculated Motion-History-Image coded in a channel, where the value 1.0 means there was motion between the last two images.

Member Function Documentation

void lti::temporalTemplate::accumulate	(	channel &	diff,
		const float &	threshold
	)			[protected]

accumulate the given difference image in the MHI.

Diff will contain the same value as mhi after calling this member.

bool lti::temporalTemplate::apply	(	const channel8 &	src,
		channel &	dest
	)

operates on a copy of the given parameters.

Parameters:

	src	channel8 with the source data.
	dest	channel8 where the result will be left.

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise Please note that all considered images MUST have the same size, otherwise your previous information will be lost. The first images will determine the used image size. You can restart with another size using reset().

bool lti::temporalTemplate::apply	(	const channel &	src,
		channel &	dest
	)

operates on a copy of the given parameters.

Parameters:

	src	channel with the source data.
	dest	channel where the result will be left.

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise Please note that all considered images MUST have the same size, otherwise your previous information will be lost. The first images will determine the used image size. You can restart with another size using reset().

bool lti::temporalTemplate::apply	(	const image &	src,
		channel &	dest
	)

operates on a copy of the given parameters.

Parameters:

	src	image with the source data.
	dest	image where the result will be left.

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise Please note that all considered images MUST have the same size, otherwise your previous information will be lost. The first images will determine the used image size. You can restart with another size using reset().

bool lti::temporalTemplate::apply

(

channel &

srcdest

)

operates on the given parameter.

Parameters:

srcdest

channel with the source data. The result will be left here too.

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise Please note that all considered images MUST have the same size, otherwise your previous information will be lost. The first image will determine the used image size. You can restart with another size using reset().

virtual functor* lti::temporalTemplate::clone

(

)

const [virtual]

returns a pointer to a clone of this functor.

Implements lti::functor.

temporalTemplate& lti::temporalTemplate::copy

(

const temporalTemplate &

other

)

copy data of "other" functor.

Parameters:

other

the functor to be copied

Returns:

a reference to this functor object

Reimplemented from lti::functor.

float lti::temporalTemplate::difference	(	image &	newImage,
		channel &	diff
	)			[protected]

calculates the difference image.

The given image will substitute the lastChannel, and at the end will be empty() returns the threshold to be used.

float lti::temporalTemplate::difference	(	channel8 &	newChannel,
		channel &	diff
	)			[protected]

calculates the difference image.

The given image will substitute the lastChannel, and at the end will be empty() returns the threshold to be used.

float lti::temporalTemplate::difference	(	channel &	newChannel,
		channel &	diff
	)			[protected]

calculates the difference image.

The given image will substitute the lastChannel, and at the end will be empty() returns the threshold to be used.

const parameters& lti::temporalTemplate::getParameters

(

)

const

returns used parameters

Reimplemented from lti::transform.

virtual const char* lti::temporalTemplate::getTypeName

(

)

const [virtual]

returns the name of this type ( "temporalTemplate" )

Reimplemented from lti::transform.

void lti::temporalTemplate::reset

(

)

reset the internal accumulators, so that the next apply will be considered as the first image to detect motion
