Abstract

Detecting pedestrians in street scenes is one of the most important but also one of the most difficult problems of computer vision. Ideally, all pedestrians should be robustly detected in order to provide optimal assistance to the driver regardless of visual conditions. Different environmental factors complicate this, however. Especially problematic are changing weather and visual conditions as well as difficult lighting situations and road conditions. Moreover, an individual’s clothing and partial occlusions of pedestrians, for example, by parked cars, further complicate the detection task. Also, in comparison to many other objects in street scenes, pedestrians are characterized by a high degree of articulation further complicating the task.
