Abstract

A method and system for creating a histogram of oriented occurrences (HO2) is disclosed. A plurality of entities in at least one image are detected and tracked. One of the plurality of entities is designated as a reference entity. A local 2-dimensional ground plane coordinate system centered on and oriented with respect to the reference entity is defined. The 2-dimensional ground plane is partitioned into a plurality of non-overlapping bins, the bins forming a histogram, a bin tracking a number of occurrences of an entity class. An occurrence of at least one other entity of the plurality of entities located in the at least one image may be associated with one of the plurality of non-overlapping bins. A number of occurrences of entities of at least one entity class in at least one bin may be into a vector to define an HO2 feature.
