Abstract
A method detects a moving object in a temporal sequence of images. Images are selected from the temporally ordered sequence of images. A set of functions is applied to the selected images to generate a set of combined images. A linear combination of filters is applied to a detection window in the set of combined images to determine motion and appearance features of the detection window. The motion and appearance features are summed to determine a cumulative score, which enables a classification of the detection window as including the moving object.
