Object Detection, Classification and Tracking Methods for Video Surveillance: A Review

Video surveillance is going through an enormous change in the last decade and lots of research is undergoing in this area. As object tracking is an integral part of such systems, it becomes necessary to review all state-of-the-art methods and approaches which belongs to object detection, classification, and tracking. This paper consists of all such methods in a classified manner. After detecting object, classification is done in order to track that later. Object tracking is the method to locate the target in subsequent frames of video. There are also some challenges in video surveillance which make it complex. Object tracking is characterized on some parameters like Illumination variation, co-ordinates matching, environmental issues, tracking object’s variety, pose variation, occlusion, motion blur etc. A vast classification is considered for review and complete analysis of all possible techniques so that each aspect is thus covered along with present research undergoing in that area.
