Region-of-interest based video coding strategy for low bitrate surveillance systems
Résumé
In this work, we propose a fast and efficient Region-of-Interest based video coding strategy for surveillance systems involving low bitrate. The proposed algorithm is based on a combination of three major techniques, namely, edge detection, frame differencing and sum of absolute differences. We improve the algorithm accuracy through the use of morphological operations. A thresholding is performed to classify the frame blocks into moving and non-moving blocks. This allows to compress and sent to the destination only moving blocks in an object-based video coding scenario. The obtained results prove the efficiency of our proposal in terms of accurate detection, data reduction and bitrate saving.
