Privacy Preserving Fall Detection Based on Simple Human Silhouette Extraction and a Linear Support Vector Machine

The paper presents a novel fast, real-time and privacy protecting algorithm for fall detection based on geometric properties of the human silhouette and a linear support vector machine. The algorithm uses infrared and visible light imagery in order to detect the human. A simple real-time human silho...
