Abstract
A method and apparatus for video surveillance is disclosed. In one embodiment, a sequence of scene imagery representing a field of view is received. One or more moving objects are identified within the sequence of scene imagery and then classified in accordance with one or more extracted spatio-temporal features. This classification may then be applied to determine whether the moving object and/or its behavior fits one or more known events or behaviors that are causes for alarm.
