It is the capability of humans and as well as vehicles to automatically detect object level motion that results into collision less navigation and also provides sense of situation. This paper presents a technique for secure object level motion detection which yields more accurate results. To achieve this, python code has been used along with various machine learning libraries. The detection algorithm uses the advantage of background subtraction and fed in data to detect even the slightest movement this system makes use of a webcam to scan a premise and detect movement of any sort; on the recognition of any activity it immediately sends an alert message to the owner of the system via mail. Any person requiring a surveillance system can use it.

In this paper, by using skin-color feature, especial location and pixel features of eyes in face area, an efficient face detection algorithm was designed. After face detection, discrete cosine Transform (DCT) was used to extract a set of observation, which is provided to train and recognize faces in the way of Hidden Markov Model (HMM). In order to solve the shortcoming that traditional motion detection algorithm can not be used to detect slow moving objects from an image sequence, an improved method was proposed by rebuilding the background.

Detection of moving objects is one of the primary factors to influence the examination surveillance system. A new moving objects detection algorithm based on background subtraction is presented after the introduction various of existing methods. Dynamic threshold conception is put forward while defining threshold. Practices show that this method can successfully overcome lighting variations and the system stability is improved.

Human  motion  analysis  concerns  the detection,  tracking  and  recognition  of  people  behaviors,  from image  sequences  involving  humans. A  reference  frame  is  initially  used  and  considered  as  background  information. While a new object enters into the frame, the foreground information and background information are identified using the reference frame as background model.In this paper, an efficient algorithm is proposed for objects detection in real time video sequences. The method aims at tracking an object like (human) in motion using background subtraction technique. The tracked objects are subject to different pre and post image processing in order to extract the most important features (frame preprocessing is used for shadow removal using morphological operations). They can be used later for recognition in different security system such as (human detection for surveillance). Experimental results show that the proposed method is very efficient in terms of reliability and accuracy of detection.

Real-time segmentation of moving regions in image sequences is a fundamental step in video monitoring systems. This paper presents an improved motion detection algorithm in a dynamic scene based on change detection. The algorithm integrates the temporal differencing method and background subtraction method to achieve better performance. Background subtraction is a typical change detection approach to segment foreground, but the continuous or abrupt variations of lighting conditions that cause unexpected changes in intensities on the background reference image. So we combine the background subtraction’s result with temporal difference’s result. The foreground mask is segmented by both the methods of background subtraction and temporal differencing. Finally, a post-processing is applied on the obtained object mask to reduce regions and smooth the moving region boundary. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can update the background exactly and quickly along with the variation of illumination, and the moving objects can be extracted effectively.

The paper proposes a smart, reliable and robust algorithm for motion detection, tracking and activity analysis. Background subtraction is considered intelligent algorithms for the same. Mount the web camera focused to the patient. PC should have a unique external Internet IP Address. Android mobile phone should be GPRS enabled. GSM technology is used for sending SMS. It is a client-server technology wherein client captures the images, checks for motion if any, discards the packets until motion is detected. Use background subtraction algorithm to check the motion. The surveillance camera does not move and has a capture of the static background it is facing. It uses image subtraction to determine object motion. It provides more reliable information about moving object, but it is so sensitivity to the dynamic changes such as lighting. Once motion is detected, camera stops monitoring further motion. Instead, it starts capturing the video. Simultaneously, SMS alert is sent to the responsible doctors and also alerting the medical staff with audio speaker in the hospital. Java mail API is used to mail the captured video to the entered e-mail IDs. Once the doctor demands for video, socket is established between the PC and the mobile phone and video (series of images) are streamed to the doctors mobile phone. Save live video of first few seconds at the server end for future use. Activate alert at the remote end.

Abstract Background Patient motion is a common problem during cardiac PET. The purpose of the present study was to investigate to what extent motions influence the quantitative accuracy of cardiac 15O-water PET/CT and to develop a method for automated motion detection. Method Frequency and magnitude of motion was assessed visually using data from 50 clinical 15O-water PET/CT scans. Simulations of 4 types of motions with amplitude of 5 to 20 mm were performed based on data from 10 scans. An automated motion detection algorithm was evaluated on clinical and simulated motion data. MBF and PTF of all simulated scans were compared to the original scan used as reference. Results Patient motion was detected in 68% of clinical cases by visual inspection. All observed motions were small with amplitudes less than half the LV wall thickness. A clear pattern of motion influence was seen in the simulations with a decrease of myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the region of myocardium to where the motion was directed. The perfusable tissue fraction (PTF) trended in the opposite direction. Global absolute average deviation of MBF was 3.1% ± 1.8% and 7.3% ± 6.3% for motions with maximum amplitudes of 5 and 20 mm, respectively. Automated motion detection showed a sensitivity of 90% for simulated motions ≥ 10 mm but struggled with the smaller (≤ 5 mm) simulated (sensitivity 45%) and clinical motions (accuracy 48%). Conclusion Patient motion can impair the quantitative accuracy of MBF. However, at typically occurring levels of patient motion, effects are similar to or only slightly larger than inter-observer variability, and downstream clinical effects are likely negligible.
