| Abstract | The objective of object recognition algorithms in computer vision is to quantify the presence or absence of a certain class of objects, for e.g.: bicycles, cars, people, etc. which is highly useful in traffic estimation applications. Sparse signal models and dictionary learning techniques can be utilized to not only classify images as belonging to one class or another, but also to detect the case when two or more of these classes co-occur with the help of augmented dictionaries. We present results comparing the classification accuracy when different image classes occur together. Practical scenarios where such an approach can be applied include forms of intrusion detection i.e., where an object of class B should not co-occur with objects of class A. An example is when there are bicyclists riding on prohibited sidewalks, or a person is trespassing a hazardous area. Mixed class detection in terms of determining semantic content can be performed in a global manner on downscaled versions of images or thumbnails. However to accurately classify an image as belonging to one class or the other, we resort to higher resolution images and localized content examination. With the help of blob tracking we can use this classification method to count objects in traffic videos. The method of feature extraction illustrated in this paper is highly suited to images obtained in practical cases, which are usually of poor quality and lack enough texture for the popular gradient based methods to produce adequate feature points. We demonstrate that by training different types of dictionaries appropriately, we can perform various tasks required for traffic monitoring. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
