            Abstract : 
Local feature based approaches have gotten great success in object detection and recognition in recent years. In this paper, a novel local based feature, Structured Local Edge Pattern Moment (SLEPm), is proposed for pedestrian detection in the sliding window framework. SLEPm encodes not only the statistical information but also the structure and spatial information of object for pedestrian detection. Linear Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used as a binary classifier to determine whether a sub-window contains pedestrian. Experimental results in INRIA pedestrian database show that performance of SLEPm is better than that of Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG).
