Abstract

In the paper, the use of selected algorithms for the detection of specific objects and extraction of their characteristics from static images is presented. The problem concerns the selection of algorithms to be implemented in the ‘SM4Public’ security system for public spaces and is focused on specific system working scenario: detecting vehicles parked in restricted areas. Two popular feature extractors based on the Discrete Cosine Transform and Discrete Fourier Transform were experimentally tested. The paper contains the description of the ‘SM4Public’ system, explanation of the problem and presentation of similar solutions given in the literature. The stress is put on the definition of the employed feature extractors and the description of the experimental results.
