Abstract
Embodiments herein provide a method and system for real time ROI detection in thermal face images based on a heuristic approach. The ROI of the thermal images, once detected, is then further used to detect temperature of a subject corresponding to the ROI. Unlike state of the art techniques, the heuristic approach is computationally less intensive and provides fast and accurate ROI detection even in case of occluded faces in a crowd with a single thermal image having a plurality of subject being scanned. The heuristics applied does not focus on face detection but directly on point of interest detection. Once the point of interest (ROI) is detected, it may be used for plurality of applications such as subject tracking and the like, not limited to subject or object temperature sensing since the method disclosed herein is easily implementable on low power devices.
