Localization of region of interest in surveillance scene.

In this paper, we present a method for autonomously detecting and extracting region(s)-of-interest (ROI) from surveillance videos using trajectory-based analysis. Our approach, localizes ROI in a stochastic manner using correlated probability density functions that model motion dynamics of multiple moving targets. The motion dynamics model is built by analyzing trajectories of multiple moving targets and associating importance to regions in the scene. The importance of each region is estimated as a function of the total time spent by multiple targets, their instantaneous velocity and direction of movement whilst passing through that region. We systematically validate our model and benchmark our technique against competing baselines through extensive experimentation using public datasets such as CAVIAR, ViSOR, and CUHK as well as a scenario-specific in-house surveillance dataset. Results obtained have demonstrated the superiority of the proposed technique against a few popular existing state-of-the-art techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
