Pedestrian Detection in Far-Infrared Daytime Images Using a Hierarchical Codebook of SURF

One of the main challenges in intelligent vehicles concerns pedestrian detection for driving assistance. Recent experiments have showed that state-of-the-art descriptors provide better performances on the far-infrared (FIR) spectrum than on the visible one, even in daytime conditions, for pedestrian...
