Abstract

Pattern recognition techniques are used in the construction of video surveillance systems. In this work a video-based security system that detects and classifies laterally crossing objects, introduced in a previous paper, is reviewed. More reliable results for the system are presented, obtained by performing a leaving one out on the data corpus rather than employing a manual approach. Other alternatives in the pattern preprocessing are explored: we employ greyscale patterns, and implement a different method for calculating difference images of consecutive video frames. A final benchmark of the classification part is done comparing the results obtained using dynamic time warping, to the ones obtained using discrete hidden Markov models plus vector quantization.
