Low complexity video compression using moving edge detection based on DCT coefficients
In this paper, we propose a new low complexity video compression method based on detecting blocks containing moving edges us- ing only DCT coe±cients. The detection, whilst being very e±cient, also allows e±cient motion estimation by constraining the search process to moving macro-blocks only. The encoders PSNR is degraded by 2dB com- pared to H.264/AVC inter for such scenarios, whilst requiring only 5% of the execution time. The computational complexity of our approach is comparable to that of the DISCOVER codec which is the state of the art low complexity distributed video coding. The proposed method ¯nds blocks with moving edge blocks and processes only selected blocks. The approach is particularly suited to surveillance type scenarios with a static camera
A Large-scale Distributed Video Parsing and Evaluation Platform
Visual surveillance systems have become one of the largest data sources of
Big Visual Data in real world. However, existing systems for video analysis
still lack the ability to handle the problems of scalability, expansibility and
error-prone, though great advances have been achieved in a number of visual
recognition tasks and surveillance applications, e.g., pedestrian/vehicle
detection, people/vehicle counting. Moreover, few algorithms explore the
specific values/characteristics in large-scale surveillance videos. To address
these problems in large-scale video analysis, we develop a scalable video
parsing and evaluation platform through combining some advanced techniques for
Big Data processing, including Spark Streaming, Kafka and Hadoop Distributed
Filesystem (HDFS). Also, a Web User Interface is designed in the system, to
collect users' degrees of satisfaction on the recognition tasks so as to
evaluate the performance of the whole system. Furthermore, the highly
extensible platform running on the long-term surveillance videos makes it
possible to develop more intelligent incremental algorithms to enhance the
performance of various visual recognition tasks.Comment: Accepted by Chinese Conference on Intelligent Visual Surveillance

Adaptive low rank and sparse decomposition of video using compressive sensing
We address the problem of reconstructing and analyzing surveillance videos
using compressive sensing. We develop a new method that performs video
reconstruction by low rank and sparse decomposition adaptively. Background
subtraction becomes part of the reconstruction. In our method, a background
model is used in which the background is learned adaptively as the compressive
measurements are processed. The adaptive method has low latency, and is more
robust than previous methods. We will present experimental results to
demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method.Comment: Accepted ICIP 201
Using the discrete hadamard transform to detect moving objects in surveillance video
In this paper we present an approach to object detection in surveillance video based on detecting moving edges
using the Hadamard transform. The proposed method is characterized by robustness to illumination changes
and ghosting effects and provides high speed detection, making it particularly suitable for surveillance applications.
In addition to presenting an approach to moving edge detection using the Hadamard transform, we
introduce two measures to track edge history, Pixel Bit Mask Difference (PBMD) and History Update Value
(H UV ) that help reduce the false detections commonly experienced by approaches based on moving edges.
Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm overcomes the traditional drawbacks of frame differencing
and outperforms existing edge-based approaches in terms of both detection results and computational
complexity
