This paper addresses real-time moving object detection with high accuracy in high-resolution video frames. A previously developed framework for moving object detection is modified to enable real-time processing of high-resolution images. First, a computationally efficient method is employed, which detects moving regions on a resized image while maintaining moving regions on the original image with mapping coordinates. Second, a light backbone deep neural network in place of a more complex one is utilized. Third, the focal loss function is employed to alleviate the imbalance between positive and negative samples. The results of the extensive experimentations conducted indicate that the modified framework developed in this paper achieves a processing rate of 21 frames per second with 86.15% accuracy on the dataset SimitMovingDataset, which contains high-resolution images of the size 1920 × 1080.
