This paper presents a new approach to scene analysis, which aims at extracting structured information from a video sequence using directly low-level data. The method models the se...
A system for video surveillance purposes in wide areas based on active cameras, also capable to follow a person in the scene by keeping him framed, is presented. The proposed appr...
We construct a Bayesian model that integrates topdown with bottom-up criteria, capitalizing on their relative merits to obtain figure-ground segmentation that is shape-specific an...
This paper presents an abandoned item and illegally parked vehicle detection method for single static camera video surveillance applications. By processing the input video at diff...
We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels), embedd...
