Abstract

Various embodiments are disclosed for detecting, tracking and counting objects of interest in video. In an embodiment, a method of detecting and tracking objects of interest comprises: obtaining, by a computing device, multiple frames of images from an image capturing device; detecting, by the computing device, objects of interest in each frame; accumulating, by the computing device, multiple frames of object detections; creating, by the computing device, object tracks based on a batch of object detections over multiple frames; and associating, by the computing device, the object tracks over consecutive batches.
