Motion detection, tracking and classification for automated Video Surveillance

Abstract

Moving object identification and tracking motion is the base source to extract vital information regarding moving objects from sequences in continuous image based surveillance systems. An advanced approach to motion detection for automatic video analysis has been presented in the paper. This achieves complete detection of moving object which is robust against of changes in brightness, dynamic variations in the surrounding environment and noise from the background. The proposed method is a pixel dependent and non-parametrized approach that is based on first frame to build the model. The detection of the foreground which represents the object and background which is the surrounding of the environment starts once the subsequent frame is captured. It utilizes unique tracking methodology that identifies and eliminates the ghost object from dissolving into the background of the frame. The proposed algorithm has been test implemented on several open source videos by imposing single set of variables to overcome shortcomings of relevant and recently developed techniques.
