Qualitive Detection of Independently Moving Targets in MPEG Video Within the Compressed Domain

摘要

This is the final report to AFOSR and AFRL/IFEC for the project Qualitative Detection of Independently Moving Targets in MPEG Video within the Compressed Domain. This project focuses on developing theory and techniques for large scale surveillance video data summarization and unsupervised segmentation of video streams regarding whether there is a presence of independent motion in the streams. We propose a holistic, in-compression approach to efficient video prostanding. By efficient, we mean that the processing speed is close to or even faster than real-time in 'normal' platforms (we do not assume using special hardware or any parallel machines) while still maintaining comparable quality with state-of-the-art methods. By prostanding, we mean to aim at those tasks that are between the traditional video processing and traditional video understanding. We target surveillance applications.
