Classificação de banhistas na faixa segura de praia

Abstract

In order to avoid risks in aquatic environments, drownings and shark attack, beach areas should be constantly monitored. When necessary, rescue workers must respond quickly to the case. This work aims to propose a classification algorithm for people as part of a system for automatic monitoring in beach areas.Certain environmental factors are quitech allenging, such as varying brightness on cloudy days,the position of the sun at different times of the day, difficulty in segmenting images, submerged people, and position away from the camera. For this type of problem in the literature is commonly found, for people detection, the use of image descriptors in conjunction with a classifier. This work performs a beach image study using the following image descriptors and their combinations in pairs: Hu Moments, Zernike Moments, Gabor Filter, Guided Gradient Histogram(HOG),Local Binary Patterns(LBP) and Haar.Inaddition,a dimensionality reduction technique (PCA) is applied for feature selection. The detection rate is evaluated with the following classifiers: text it Random Forest, casca de classifier and textit Support Vector Machine (SVM) with linear and radial textit kernel. The experiments demonstrated that the SVM classifier with radial kernel using the HOG and LBP descriptors applying the PCA technique showed promising results, obtaining 90.31% accuracy
