Abstract: An object detection method and an object detection system, suitable for detecting moving object information of a video stream having a plurality of images, are provided. The method performs a moving object foreground detection on each of the images, so as to obtain a first foreground detection image comprising a plurality of moving objects. The method also performs a texture object foreground detection on each of the images, so as to obtain a second foreground detection image comprising a plurality of texture objects. The moving objects in the first foreground detection image and the texture objects in the second foreground detection image are selected and filtered, and then the remaining moving objects or texture objects after the filtering are output as real moving object information.

Abstract: A moving object detection method and a moving object detection apparatus based on a compressed domain are disclosed. In the method, compressed video data and pixel video data are received. Moving object information in the first compressed video data is detected and integrated into the pixel video data. The pixel video data containing the moving object information is output.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for processing compressed video images. A processor detects a candidate object region from the compressed video images. The candidate object region includes a moving object and a shadow associated with the moving object. For each data block in the candidate object region, the processor calculates an amount of encoding data used to encode temporal changes in the respective data block. The processor then identifies the shadow in the candidate object region composed of data blocks each having the amount of encoding data below a threshold value.

Abstract: A multi-state target tracking method and a multi-state target tracking system are provided. The method detects a crowd density of a plurality of images in a video stream and compares the detected crowd density with a threshold when receiving the video stream, so as to determine a tracking mode used for detecting the targets in the images. When the detected crowd density is less than the threshold, a background model is used to track the targets in the images. When the detected crowd density is greater than or equal to the threshold, a none-background model is used to track the targets in the images.
