Abstract

We propose a novel approach for detecting and localising stationary objects using a pair of PTZ cameras monitoring a wide scene. First we propose a stationary object detection and labelling algorithm. It relies on the re-identification of foreground blocks of the image and an MRF framework to detect and separate the stationary objects of the scene. Second we propose a geometric approach for robustly matching the detected silhouettes of stationary objects from a pair of PTZ cameras. Our system is tested on challenging sequences which prove its robustness to occlusions even in an unknown non planar 3D scene.
