Abstract

A video analysis system includes: a video data acquiring means that acquires video data; a moving object detecting means that detects a moving object from video data acquired by the video data acquiring means, by using a moving object detection parameter, which is a parameter for detecting a moving object; an environment information collecting means that collects environment information representing an external environment of a place where the video data acquiring means is installed; and a parameter changing means that changes the moving object detection parameter used when the moving object detecting means detects a moving object, on the basis of the environment information collected by the environment information collecting means.

Claims (46)

1. A video analysis system comprising:

at least one memory storing instructions; and

at least one processor executing the instructions to perform;

collecting environment information representing a wind speed at the location where the video data is acquired; wherein

the at least one processor further performs;

removing a reciprocating object from the moving object, using a reciprocating object removal threshold to distinguish the moving object from the reciprocating object, the reciprocating object performing a repetitive movement; and

changing the reciprocating object removal threshold on a basis of the wind speed collected as the environment information of.

2. The video analysis system according to claim 1 , wherein the environment information includes a plurality of reciprocating object removal threshold, and

the at least processor performs:

determining an intensity of the wind in stages based on the environment information of the wind speed; and

changing the reciprocating object removal threshold according to stages corresponding to the intensity of the wind.

3. The video analysis system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a parameter set storage for storing a set of moving object detection parameters corresponding to multiple external environments, wherein

the at least one processor performs:

changing the moving object detection parameters, on a basis of the environment information, by referring to the set of moving object detection parameters stored in the parameter set storage.

4. A video analysis method comprising:

acquiring video data acquired at a predetermined location;

detecting a moving object from the video data by using a moving object detection parameter, the moving object detection parameter being a parameter for detecting a moving object; and

collecting environment information representing a wind speed at the location where the video data is acquired; wherein

the video analysis method further comprises:

removing a reciprocating object from the moving object, using a reciprocating object removal threshold to distinguish the moving object from the reciprocating object, the reciprocating object performing a repetitive movement; and

changing the reciprocating object removal threshold on a basis of the wind speed collected as the environment information of.

5. The video analysis method according to claim 4 , wherein the environment information includes a plurality of reciprocating object removal threshold, and
