Title
APFel: The intelligent video analysis and surveillance system for assisting human operators.
Abstract
The rising need for security in the last years has led to an increased use of surveillance cameras in both public and private areas. The increasing amount of footage makes it necessary to assist human operators with automated systems to monitor and analyze the video data in reasonable time. In this paper we summarize our work of the past three years in the field of intelligent and automated surveillance. Our proposed system extends the common active monitoring of camera footage into an intelligent automated investigative person-search and walk path reconstruction of a selected person within hours of image data. Our system is evaluated and tested under life-like conditions in real-world surveillance scenarios. Our experiments show that with our system an operator can reconstruct a case in a fraction of time, compared to manually searching the recorded data.
