Abstract
A region of interest (ROI) generation method for stereo-based pedestrian detection systems. A vertical gradient of a clustered depth map is used to find ground plane and variable-sized bounding boxes are extracted on a boundary of the ground plane as ROIs. The ROIs are then classified into pedestrian and non-pedestrian classes. Simulation results show the algorithm outperforms the existing monocular and stereo-based methods.
