Abstract

A computerized method of video analysis including receiving image data for a plurality of video frames depicting a scene that includes at least one of a plurality of background features. Each video frame includes a plurality of image regions and at least one video frame has an object within at least one of the image region. A plurality of background classifications is provided that correspond to one of the background features in the scene. At least one image region is assigned a background classification based at least in part on the location of the object relative to the image region.
