Abstract

A method detects objects in a scene over time. Sets of time-aligned features are extracted from multiple signals representing a scene over time; each signal is acquired using a different modality. Each set of time-aligned features is arranged as a vector in a matrix to which a first transform is applied to produce a compressed matrix. A second transform is applied to the compressed matrix to extract spatio-temporal profiles of objects occurring in the scene.
