The paper presents an effective method to detect fire in video surveillance and monitoring system. The main contribution of this work is that we successfully use the Hidden Markov Models in the process of detecting the fire with a few preprocessing steps. First, the moving pixels detected from image difference, the color values obtained from the fire flames, and their pixels clustering are applied to obtain the image regions labeled as fire candidates; secondly, utilizing massive training data, including fire videos and non-fire videos, creates the Hidden Markov Models of fire and non-fire, which are used to make the final decision that whether the frame of the real-time video has fire or not in both temporal and spatial analysis. Experimental results demonstrate that it is not only robust but also has a very low false alarm rate, furthermore, on the ground that the HMM training which takes up the most time of our whole procedure is off-line calculated, the real-time detection and alarm can be well implemented when compared with the other existing methods.

People are important targets for video surveillance and monitoring(VSAM) but difficult to be analyzed. In this paper, a technique to count people in image sequences is dealt as a prerequisite procedure for automatic tracking and behaviour analysis. A group of people is divided at local minima of the line connecting the highest pixels on the binary image of the people extracted from the image taken by a stationary video camera. As the properties of the divided regions vary according to the relative positions of the people in a group, different states are assigned for the completely occluded, partially occluded, completed separated individual, and wrongly divided regions. By analyzing the transition of the states of divided regions, the number of people on the site monitored is estimated. The technique is checked in real experimental situations.

To reduce huge losses in pig farms, weaning pigs with weak immune systems are required to be carefully supervised. Even if various researches have been performed for livestock monitoring environment, segmenting each pig from touching pigs is still entrenched as a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a real-time segmentation method for moving pigs by using motion information in a 24-h video surveillance system. The experimental results with the videos obtained from a domestic pig farm illustrated the possibility for segmenting by using our proposed method in real-time.

CCTV image processing techniques have been developed for safety management in manufacturing sites. However, CCTV growth has become a social problem for video surveillance with regard to privacy. This study aims to manage the safety system efficiently and protect privacy simultaneously. In this study, the CCTV monitoring system is composed of five steps (accident monitoring, detection, notification, management, restoration). De-identified image is observed when we are in a normal situation. De-identified image changes to identified image when it detects an accident. As soon as it detects an accident, the accident information is sent to the safety administrator. Then the administrator could conduct safety measures. Afterward, accumulated accident data could be used for statistical data that could be utilized as analyzing expecting accident.

In this paper, we implement the real-time status monitoring system to surveil the object in the automation manufacturing facilities and we propose the CCTV video tracking system using the video tracking filter to improve efficiency. To surveil the object in automation manufacturing facilities, we implement monitoring SW on the based of the video tracking filter instead of the general method for the video monitoring so the reliable monitoring based on the PC is possible efficiently. In addition, accessibility and convenience for administrator are improved as the real-time status confirmation function. Also, we conform the performance improvement effect through the performance analysis of the proposed monitoring system using the video tracking filter.

This paper proposes a real-time multi-camera video surveillance system with automatic resolution control using motion detection. In ordinary times, it acquires 4 channels of QVGA images, and it merges them into single VGA image and transmit it. When motion is detected, it automatically increases the resolution of motion-occurring channel to VGA and decreases those of 3 other channels to QQVGA, and then these images are overlaid and transmitted. Thus, it can magnifies and watches the motion-occurring channel while maintaining transmission bandwidth and monitoring all other channels. When it is synthesized with 0.18 um technology, the maximum operating frequency is 110 MHz, which can theoretically support 4 HD cameras.

Passenger safety is a primary concern of railway system but, it has been urgent issue that dozens of people are killed every year when they are fallen from train platforms. In this paper, we propose a vision based monitoring system for railway station platform. The system immediately perceives dangerous factors of passengers on the platform by using image processing technology. To monitor almost entire length of the track line in the platform, we use several video cameras. Each camera conducts surveillance its own preset monitoring area whether human or dangerous object was fallen in the area. Moreover, to deal with the accident immediately, the system provides local station, central control room employees and train driver with the video information about the accident situation including alarm message. This paper introduces the system overview and detection process with experimental results. According to the results, we expect the proposed system will play a key role for establishing highly intelligent monitoring system in railway.

Wireless sensor network is an important research topic that has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. However, most of the interest has focused on wireless sensor network to gather scalar data such as temperature, humidity and vibration. Scalar data are insufficient for diverse applications such as video surveillance, target recognition and traffic monitoring. However, if we use camera sensors in wireless sensor network to collect video data which are vast in information, they can provide important visual information. Video sensor networks continue to gain interest due to their ability to collect video information for a wide range of applications in the past few years. However, how to efficiently store the massive data that reflect environmental state of different times in video sensor network and how to quickly search interested information from them are challenging issues in current research, especially when the sensor network environment is complicated. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for extracting key frames from video and describe the design and implementation of key frame extraction and sharing in Android for wireless video sensor network.

Due to the development and market expansion of image analysis and recognition technology, video security such as CCTV cameras and digital storage devices, are required for real-time monitoring systems and intelligent video security systems. This includes the development of more advanced technologies. A rotatable PTZ camera, in a CCTV camera system, has a zoom function so you can acquire a precise picture. However it can cause blind spots, and can not monitor two or more moving objects at the same time. This study concerns, the intelligent tracking of multiple moving objects, CCTV systems, and methods of video surveillance. An intelligent video surveillance system is proposed. It can accurately shoot broad areas and track multiple objects at the same time, much more effectively than using one fixed camera for an entire area or two or more PTZ cameras.

Failure and malfunction of the unmanned surveillance facility cost can lead to delays occurring until the person in charge arrives at the unmanned surveillance facility, and theft, damage, and information leakage damage caused by intruders. In addition, due to equipment failure and malfunction, additional costs are incurred due to constant inspection by the manager. In this paper, in order to compensate for the malfunction of unmanned facility costs, we propose a system that diagnoses the monitoring facility in real time, displays the contents of the problem, automatically restores the facility power, and informs the person in charge of the situation by text message. The proposed system is a surveillance facility consisting of main facilities such as video equipment (CCTV), sound equipment, floodlights, etc. And SMS server that can send text messages in real time. Through experiments, the effectiveness of the proposed system was verified.
