System and method for object identification and behavior characterization using video analysis

摘要: In general, the present invention is directed to systems and methods for finding position shape of an object using video. The includes a system with video camera coupled computer in which configured automatically provide segmentation identification, motion tracking (for moving objects), classification, behavior identification. preferred embodiment, may use background subtraction identification tracking, probabilistic approach expectation-maximization detection decision tree classification Thus, capable monitoring image identify, track classify actions various objects object's movements within image. be provided real time or from storage. particularly useful classifying animal testing drugs genetic mutations, but used any number other surveillance applications.
