The contour of each relevant object in the analyzed scene is modeled with an approximating polygon whose edges are then projected into the Hough space. A structurally adaptive self-organizing map neural network generates clusters of collinear and/or parallel edges, which are used as the basis for identifying the partially occluded objects within each polygonal approximation. Results on a number of cases under different conditions are provided.born digitalarticleseng©1999 IEEE.Copyright and other restrictions may apply.
