Abstract

The paper presents an agent based surveillance system for use in monitoring scenes involving both pedestrians and vehicles. The surveillance system supplies textual descriptions for the dynamic activity occurring in the 3D world. These are derived by means of dynamic andprobabilistic inference based on geometric information provided by a vision system that tracks vehicles and pedestrians. The symbolic scene annotation is given at two major levels of description: the object level and the interobject level. At object level, each tracked object(pedestrian or vehicle) is assigned a behaviour agent which uses a Bayesian network to infer the fundamental features of the objects' trajectory, and continuously updates its textual description. The inter-object interaction level is interpreted by a situation agent which is created dynamically when two objects are in close proximity.
