People Detection and Tracking from a Top-View Position Using a Time-of-Flight Camera

This paper outlines a method for the detection and tracking of people in depth images, acquired with a low-resolution Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera. This depth sensor is placed perpendicular to the ground in order to provide distance information from a top-view position.
