Video abstraction and anomalies detection for stationary cameras
Jun 25th, 2010 | By Dr. Paolo Buono | Category: Featured Articles, NewsThe increasing adoption of video surveillance makes it possible to watch over sensitive areas and identify people responsible for damage, theft and violence. However, when such events are not detected immediately, the subsequent video analysis can be a long and tedious task.
