Abstract

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for analyzing a video are disclosed. An input video signal can be received and a quality metric associated with the input video signal can be determined. A parameter to be used in a first object tracking process can be selected, based in part on the quality metric associated with the input video signal. A background model can be extracted from the input video signal based on an online median estimate of the intensity values of the pixels in the image frames. The online median estimate can be calculated using a quantile function.
