Abstract:

Pedestrian detection system is the pedestrian protection system in advanced driving-assistant system,which can effectively reduce pedestrian injury.Texture symmetry degree is currently the most proper feature that can describe pedestrians.A linear detection method is proposed by extracting the region of interest based on texture symmetry degree to effectively reduce the influence of small textures,such as shadow and leaves.The regions of interest are verified by histogram features of gradient direction and support vector machine method.Experiments show that the proposed method can significantly reduce false alarms and missing alarm without affecting the detecting speed.

Key words:  pedestrian detection system;symmetry feature;line detection;support vector machine
