Partial least squares-based human upper body orientation estimation with combined detection and tracking

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a method for estimating the human upper body orientation.

• Our algorithm uses partial least squares-based gradient and texture feature models.

• Integration with an UKF-based movement prediction increases the performance.

• Comparison with the state-of-the-art shows the benefit of our algorithm.

• Experiment results using image, video, and camera are provided.
