L1 norm based pedestrian detection using video analytics technique

Pedestrian detection from images of the visible spectrum is a high relevant area of research given its potential impact in the design of pedestrian protection systems. In general, detection is made with two different phases, feature extraction and classification. Also, features for detection of pedestrian are already are available such as optimal feature model. But still required is an improvement in detection by reducing the execution time and false positive. The proposed model has three different phases, that is, background subtraction, feature extraction, and classification. In spite of giving entire information into feature extraction, the system gives only a useful information (foreground image) by twin background model. Then the foreground image moves to the feature extraction and classifies the pedestrian. For feature extraction, histogram of orientation gradient (HOG) L1 normalization has been used. This will increase the detection accuracy and reduce the computation time of a process. In addition, false positive rate has been minimized
