Behavior tracking in video surveillance applications: a detailed study

Abstract

The problem of video surveillance toward behavior tracking has been well studied. The object tracking in video surveillance and behavior analysis has been used for different problems. Numerous techniques have been presented earlier for the tracking of objects and classification of behaviors. The general approaches use a background model to identify the foreground objects. Based on the foreground objects identified, the object tracking has been performed. Similarly, various approaches consider different features to perform object detection and classification. Each method produces a different result with varying accuracy in behavior tracking. This paper analyses various methods of object tracking and behavior analysis in video surveillance. A detailed survey on the methods of object tracking is performed, and a comparative study is presented in this paper.
