Object Detection and Tracking for Intelligent Video Surveillance

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 346))

Abstract

As CCTV/IP cameras and network infrastructure become cheaper and more affordable, today’s video surveillance solutions are more effective than ever before, providing new surveillance technology that’s applicable to a wide range end-users in retail sectors, schools, homes, office campuses, industrial /transportation systems, and government sectors. Vision-based object detection and tracking, especially for video surveillance applications, is studied from algorithms to performance evaluation. This chapter is composed of three topics: (1) background modeling and detection, (2) performance evaluation of sensitive target detection, and (3) multi-camera segmentation and tracking of people.
