This paper presents a statistical motion activity description method and video retrievals by using the intensity and directions of the extracted motion vectors from video sequence. Since the proposed method can represent temporal and spatial cognitive characteristics of an entire video, several images between key frames, and images in a certain interval, it can be effectively applied to digital video services such as video retrieval, surveilance, multimedia database, and broadcasting filterings. In the paper, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is shown with a lot of shots of MPEG-7 video dataset.

This paper describes a robust visual surveillance algorithm under outdoor environment. One of the difficult problems for outdoor is to obtain effective updating process of background images. Because background images generally contain the shadows of buildings, trees, moving clouds and other objects, they are changed by lapse of time and variation of illumination. They provide the lowering of performance for surveillance system under outdoor. In this paper, a robust algorithm for visual surveillance system under outdoor is proposed, which apply the mixture Gaussian filter and color invariant property on pixel level to update background images. In results, it was showed that the moving objects can be detected on various shadows under outdoor.
