Event Camera Applications for Driver-Assistive Technology

Abstract Details

2022, Master of Science in Computer Engineering, University of Dayton, Electrical and Computer Engineering.
We propose an Event-Based Snow Removal algorithm called EBSnoR. We developed a technique to measure the dwell time of snowflakes on a pixel using event-based camera data, which is used to carry out a Neyman-Pearson hypothesis test to partition event stream into snowflake and background events. The effectiveness of the proposed EBSnoR was verified on a new dataset called UDayton22EBSnow, comprised of front-facing event-based camera in a car driving through snow with manually annotated bounding boxes around surrounding vehicles. Qualitatively, EBSnoR correctly identifies events corresponding to snowflakes; and quantitatively, EBSnoR-preprocessed event data improved the performance of event-based car detection algorithms.
