OBJECT-LEVEL GROUPING AND IDENTIFICATION FOR TRACKING OBJECTS IN A VIDEO

In one embodiment, a method of determine and track moving objects in a video, including detecting and extracting regions from accepted frames of a video, matching parts including using the extracted parts of a current frame and matching each part from a previous frame to a region in the current frame, tracking the matched parts to form part tracks, and determining a set of path features for each tracked part path. The determined path features are used to classify each path as that of mover or a static. The method includes clustering the paths of movers, including grouping parts of movers that likely belong to a single object, in order to generate one or more single moving objects and track moving objects. Also a system to carry out the method and a non-transitory computer-readable medium that when executed in a processing system causes carrying out the method.
