Moving Object Detection Using Background Subtraction

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Computer Science ((BRIEFSCOMPUTER))

Abstract

There are various approaches to moving object detection from video; e.g. background subtraction, temporal differencing, statistical approaches, optical flow etc. This chapter summarizes these methodologies. Different challenging conditions that pose problems in moving object detection are also identified. Object tracking, a task closely related to moving object detection is also discussed in brief in this chapter.
