Methods and apparatus for classification of occupancy using wavelet transforms

摘要

Improved methods and apparatus for classifying occupancy of a position use wavelet transforms, such as Gabor filters, for processing images obtained in conjunction therewith. For example, a computer system comprises an algorithm that utilizes a wavelet transform for processing of imagery associated with a position in order to classify occupancy of that position. A method comprises steps of: obtaining an image of the position; optionally segmenting the image at the position; optionally dividing the image into multiple key regions for further analysis; analyzing texture of the image using one or more wavelet transforms; and classifying occupancy of the position based on the texture of the image.
