Previous research on moving object detection in traffic surveillance video has mostly adopted a single threshold to eliminate the noise caused by external environmental interference, resulting in low accuracy and low efficiency of moving object detection. Therefore, we propose a moving object detection method that considers the difference of image spatial threshold, i.e., a moving object detection method using adaptive threshold (MOD-AT for short). In particular, based on the homograph method, we first establish the mapping relationship between the geometric-imaging characteristics of moving objects in the image space and the minimum circumscribed rectangle (BLOB) of moving objects in the geographic space to calculate the projected size of moving objects in the image space, by which we can set an adaptive threshold for each moving object to precisely remove the noise interference during moving object detection. Further, we propose a moving object detection algorithm called GMM_BLOB (GMM denotes Gaussian mixture model) to achieve high-precision detection and noise removal of moving objects. The case-study results show the following: (1) Compared with the existing object detection algorithm, the median error (MD) of the MOD-AT algorithm is reduced by 1.2–11.05%, and the mean error (MN) is reduced by 1.5–15.5%, indicating that the accuracy of the MOD-AT algorithm is higher in single-frame detection; (2) in terms of overall accuracy, the performance and time efficiency of the MOD-AT algorithm is improved by 7.9–24.3%, reflecting the higher efficiency of the MOD-AT algorithm; (3) the average accuracy (MP) of the MOD-AT algorithm is improved by 17.13–44.4%, the average recall (MR) by 7.98–24.38%, and the average F1-score (MF) by 10.13–33.97%; in general, the MOD-AT algorithm is more accurate, efficient, and robust.

This paper presents a moving object detection algorithm for H.264/AVC video streams that is applied in the compressed domain. The method is able to extract and analyze several syntax elements from any H.264/AVC-compliant bit stream. The number of analyzed syntax elements depends on the mode in which the method operates. The algorithm is able to perform either a spatiotemporal analysis in a single step or a two-step analysis that starts with a spatial analysis of each frame, followed by a temporal analysis of several subsequent frames. Thereby, in each mode either only (sub-)macroblock types and partition modes or, additionally, quantization parameters are analyzed. The evaluation of these syntax elements enables the algorithm to determine a “weight” for each 4×4 block of pixels that indicates the level of motion within this block. A final segmentation after creating these weights segments each frame to foreground and background and hence indicates the positions and sizes of all moving objects. Our experiments show that the algorithm is able to efficiently detect moving objects in the compressed domain and that it is configurable to process a large number of parallel bit streams in real time.


The resistance of the improved moving objects detection algorithm to various types of additive and multiplicative noise is discussed. The algorithm’s first phase contains the noise suppression filter based on spatiotemporal blocks including dimensionality reduction technique for a compact scalar representation of each block, and the second phase consists of the moving object detection algorithm resistant to illumination changes that detects and tracks moving objects.

In this paper, line dancing's moving object detection technology based on machine vision is studied to improve object detection. For this purpose, the improved frame difference for the background modeling technique is combined with the target detection algorithm. The moving target is extracted, and the postmorphological processing is carried out to make the target detection more accurate. Based on this, the tracking target is determined on the time axis of the moving target tracking stage, the position of the target in each frame is found, and the most similar target is found in each frame of the video sequence. The association relationship is established to determine a moving object template or feature. Through certain measurement criteria, the mean-shift algorithm is used to search the optimal candidate target in the image frame and carry out the corresponding matching to realize moving objects' tracking. This method can detect the moving targets of line dancing in various areas through the experimental analysis, which will not be affected by the position or distance, and always has a more accurate detection effect.


Performance of the moving objects detection algorithm on infrared videos is discussed. The algorithm consists of two phases: the noise suppression filter based on spatiotemporal blocks including dimensionality reduction technique for a compact vector representation of each block and the illumination changes resistant moving object detection algorithm that tracks the moving objects. The proposed method is evaluated on monochrome and multispectral IR videos.


Recognition and detection of an object in the watched scenes is a characteristic organic capacity. Animals and human being play out this easily in day by day life to move without crashes, to discover sustenance, dodge dangers, etc. Be that as it may, comparable PC techniques and calculations for scene examination are not all that direct, in spite of their exceptional advancement. Object detection is the process in which finding or recognizing cases of articles (for instance faces, mutts or structures) in computerized pictures or recordings. This is the fundamental task in computer. For detecting the instance of an object and to pictures having a place with an article classification object detection method usually used learning algorithm and extracted features. This paper proposed a method for moving object detection and vehicle detection.


With the advent in technology, security and authentication has become the main aspect in computer vision approach. Moving object detection is an efficient system with the goal of preserving the perceptible and principal source in a group. Surveillance is one of the most crucial requirements and carried out to monitor various kinds of activities. The detection and tracking of moving objects are the fundamental concept that comes under the surveillance systems. Moving object recognition is challenging approach in the field of digital image processing. Moving object detection relies on few of the applications which are Human Machine Interaction (HMI), Safety and video Surveillance, Augmented Realism, Transportation Monitoring on Roads, Medical Imaging etc. The main goal of this research is the detection and tracking moving object. In proposed approach, based on the pre-processing method in which there is extraction of the frames with reduction of dimension. It applies the morphological methods to clean the foreground image in the moving objects and texture based feature extract using component analysis method. After that, design a novel method which is optimized multilayer perceptron neural network. It used the optimized layers based on the Pbest and Gbest particle position in the objects. It finds the fitness values which is binary values (x_update, y_update) of swarm or object positions. Method and output achieved final frame creation of the moving objects in the video using BLOB ANALYSER In this research , an application is designed using MATLAB VERSION 2016a In activation function to re-filter the given input and final output calculated with the help of pre-defined sigmoid. In proposed methods to find the clear detection and tracking in the given dataset MOT, FOOTBALL, INDOOR and OUTDOOR datasets.
