A general Bayesian multilinear analysis framework for human behaviour recognition. Smart information use is essential for effective video surveillance in order to guard against accidents, fight crime and combat terrorism. In this project advanced probabilistic methods will be applied to visual surveillance information, to warn of impending accidents and to track criminals and terrorists and predict their behaviours.

This project aims to provide a comprehensive and practical extreme object detection system considering three extreme object detection challenges, that is small and distance objects, occluded objects and sparse (rare) objects. Reliable extreme object detection is critical for intelligent agents in many aspects and is becoming increasingly important for developing a smart nation by building intelligent transportation and smart cities. To design and develop such an effective system, this project provides novel scale-invariant learning, occlusion-robust learning and semi-supervised learning solutions to address the corresponding challenges. The project is expected to have a significant impact on a broad array of application areas including autonomous vehicles, robotics, and intelligent surveillance cameras.Read moreRead less
