Video surveillance systems are very important in our everyday life. Video surveillance applications are used in airports, banks, offices and even our homes to remain us secure. Night vision is the ability to see in low light conditions. Surveillance video may not be seen clearly. Especially under the weak illumination conditions. The details of the image are very poor at night. Most of the previous work has focused on daytime Surveillance. This paper proposes a method of Human detection in hours of darkness (night time) using Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) in real night environment employing an infrared radiation camera. Infrared video is taken as Input to perform Human detection at night. Then the video was processed using Gaussian mixture model algorithm, it was confirmed that by using this method accurate detection of human at night is possible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
