Enhanced people detection combining appearance and motion information

The combination of two of the most recent people detectors from the state of the art is proposed. It is already known that the combination of independent information sources is useful for any detection task. In relation to people detection, there are two main discriminative information sources that characterise a person: appearance and motion. Proposed is the combination of two recent approaches based on both information sources. Experimental results over an extensive dataset show that the proposed combination significantly improves the results.
