Background modeling for foreground detection is often used in different applications to
model the background and then detect the moving objects in the scene like in video …

We present a survey on maritime object detection and tracking approaches, which are
essential for the development of a navigational system for autonomous ships. The electro …

This paper presents a technique for motion detection that incorporates several innovative
mechanisms. For example, our proposed technique stores, for each pixel, a set of values …

Background subtraction is one of the key techniques for automatic video analysis, especially
in the domain of video surveillance. Although its importance, evaluations of recent …

This paper reports the results of a recently concluded R&D project, SCALS (Smart Cities
