VERFAHREN ZUR EREIGNISERKENNUNG UND VIDEOÜBERWACHUNGSSYSTEM MIT DIESEM VERFAHREN

摘要

An event detection method for video surveillance systems and a related video surveillance system are described. The method comprises a learning phase, wherein learning images of a supervised area are acquired at different time instants in the absence of any detectable events, and an operating detection phase wherein current images of said area are acquired. The method detects an event by comparing a current image with an image corresponding to a linear combination of a plurality of reference images approximating, or coinciding with, respective learning images.
