Abstract

A sequence of video frames of an area of interest is obtained. A first background model of the area of interest is constructed based on a first parameter. A second background model of the area of interest is constructed based on a second parameter, the second parameter being different from the first parameter. A difference between the first and second background models is determined. A stationary target is determined based on the determined difference. An alert concerning the stationary target is generated.
